[quote=Anonymous]It's really hard. Dh's grandpa had a long, difficult decline in his 90s, same with my great uncle. Dementia is the worst and the person is not themselves at the end, sometimes for years. I've also seen many people have pretty great older age, independent, doing yoga, cooking a lot, not able to drive but living at home with some (not constant) help from family, a visiting nurse...We really don't know how it's going to go for us and it is stressful to consider. But for those who say 70-75, that is very very young. My in-laws and parents are these ages and aside from some health concerns they are able to do absolutely everything, are sharp, travel...It is still a good age.[/quote]
