All my grandparents are dead. My best friends 19 year old beautiful daughter just died too. No warning. This world is filled with so much pain. Just to have a friend who has lived this long who can share so much of life with you what a blessing.

hebneh I have a question because I have my own little theory. Your mom is all there mentally. Does she also have decent hearing and vision? Doesn’t matter if she has to wear glasses or a hearing aid. I’ve noticed that the older people that are very mentally sharp also seem still able to hear and see. What I was thinking is that if you can still hear and see good then your brain is still being stimulated. Therefore you lose less neurons. I think really rings true with the vision and the ability to be able to read. Like I said this is my own little theory. I’m just an interested person. I’m not in that field of study.

@MMM. It defiantly depends what generation a person is born into. None of my generation born in the 1950’s is doing very well. Sedentary office jobs, little exercise, fast food, food grown with pesticides. My grandparents and their parents grew their own food and worked hard physically in the gardens, fields, yards. They used almost no pesticide and what they did use on rare occasion was a mild seven dust. But the corporation recently changed the formula to something toxic. They all lived into upper 80’s and into upper 90’s. My Dad taught school and was somewhat sedentary at work but he always worked hard in the yard and had physical hard jobs in the summer and lived to 84 even after factoring some years of smoking and drinking at earlier age, Of course with teaching he had real good health insurance which helped a lot. Good insurance is gone now days unless a person is rich or has great corporate job to cover it which are few, So I expect life expectancy will be dropping in the future. If a person can’t be physically active and eat right at least be rich like Crosby of crosby, stills, nash and young where a person can buy a new liver. 🤣

In what should be the prime of my life, I feel older than my 85 year old neighbor. Did in two sessions very light garden work today, whilst sitting. So much hurts now, that I feel ill from it. Finally did take another pain killer, though I want to go easy on my liver.

I must agree with her on that. I know that sense my health has started to go south, I have lost some of my zest for life. The sad part is my age. I'm to young to be falling apart at the seams. I feel like a young woman at heart, but the body is playing out way to soon. I try to be active as possible, but I sure miss being able to jump up and do the things I then took for granted. I worked to long to hard and it caught up with me. Hips replaced was the start. Then the back went. I still try to do things, but forget I can't stand up anymore. I caught myself planning a trip to go dig gem stones in Arkansas. Hello!!! How the Hell am I going to do that. lol... Forget a bucket list. lol... BTW... Even though your young and in good shape, make sure you eat right. Diabetes sucks, and will effect your whole body. Every organ and even your skin.

My next-door neighbor died at 102 in 1984, I was 17, and spent A LOT of time throughout my childhood and early teens talking with him. He was a wonderful gift to our neighborhood and inspiration. He stayed active, ate moderately, smoked a pipe, cigars and drank a 6 pack of Yuengling beer per week, retired after 50+ years as a machinist, was married twice. His second wife was 36 years younger than him, they married when he was 66 yrs old.

ShiftCtrl85 oh yeah, I would absolutely agree with that although maybe she didn't die of a chronic illness, maybe it was just kind of her time but yeah, I see what you're saying, people can be very ill but it might not necessarily look like it from the outside. I wonder though if it is also the same the other way around, for example, some people look terrible on the outside, like they are really ill, but I wonder if (some of them) might not be 🤷🏽‍♀️ I've never considered that before, lol!

No telling how many lives she has changed being admired by everyone that crossed her path in this life. I believe she got a straight ticket to Heaven and a bit of Heaven on earth. To bad its so few and far between to cross someone like her and she will continue to change everyone that listens to her.

Some lie on purpose for attention and money and some simply can’t remember their age so they pick one.
