[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to say, I'm 38 and this thread is giving me some great perspective to think about aging.[/quote] oh yea. I'm 53 and am seeing how awful it is to be that old. One parent 90: somewhat still healthy but can't drive, hearing and vision completely going Another 84: dementia Neither can control their bladder, and dementia parent cannot control bm. The other once just died at 90: lots of health issues and couldn't walk much; refused to go into a retirement home; became very lonely at home, and couldn't do much on their own, but still didn't want to live in a retirement home. It's awful. I don't want to live till 90. My body is already having issues at 53.[/quote]
