    My sister’s neighbor lived to 102. She lived in her own home without help and was sharp as a tack. She didn’t give up driving until about 98. Then, one morning. She said she wasn’t feeling well and and decided to take a nap and then passed away. We should all be so fortunate.

      So... I think those happy people are simply expressing their true nature and your grandmother is expressing hers! So, perhaps it is more about AUTHENTICITY than simply being positive. I myself am very critical and that's hard for others (and myself; I can never get away from Me!). I TRY to channel that analytical/critical vein into my work now, instead of my relationships. I finally realized... if I have a critical voice, if I can always SEE where things don't work, it must have some purpose. Your grandmother hasn't arrived there. Or she's stuck in blame (that's a BIG trap!!). Things changed for me when I began keeping a GRATITUDE journal (to mitigate my depression; I was shocked at how powerfully it worked. It was really hard to write 3 things EVERY DAY (no repeats) that I was grateful for. It CHANGED my brain). Perhaps your gran needs a Gratitude Journal!!

      Some go slower than others. Some go quicker than others. I lost my dad over 2.5 yrs ago at 72 (potentially had a heart attack while he was behind the wheel) and I thought he would be around another 15-20 yrs. My mom thought my grandmother would pass away at 80 and she died last month at 96.

Despite that (and concerns from my mom), she spent the majority of those final 3+ yrs at the first one before my mom got her out. She spent the last 10 months of her life at the 2nd one. When my grandmother (mom's side) was put in the nursing home, she was at the better one of the two. My mom thinks that was why my grandmother made it to 96 despite Alzheimer's, dementia, diabetes, and a round of Covid in 2020. I personally think it was because of genes.

This in the Netherlands, so..he lived to be 97. Ten kids and his wife, all but one made it into their 90's, my father is the last one standing, 92, and they all got blind, even blind, they all managed on their own. No complaints, no whining.

    My grandmother was born in 1905 pre-automobile, electricity and indoor plumbing. She lived through WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and 911. She lived through 18 recessions and the Great Depression, the invention of TV, telephones, interstate, space exploration, computers, and cell phones. I asked her once what it was like going from cooking on a wood stove to using a microwave. All she said was "I remember". The last 5 years she was alive, it was the last visit I made to her in early 2001 that she remembered me.

    At 75, I enjoy a monthly lunch meeting with a group of high school graduates for the last eleven years. We laugh and reminisce and tell stories about our lives back 60 or more years ago as well as more recent events. A few of our fellow grads have passed during that time (not all of whom met regularly with us) and at least two guys who have occasionally attended have noticeable mental issues. I'd like to think, this socialization and the tears-inducing laughter that each meeting produces is a tonic for me as well as the others.

I said we should just keep going. So seven years later there are about 10-15 of us that meet every month. During Covid we really missed those gettogethers, and started them back up as soon as we could. Each month we invite everyone from our class. It’s interesting to see who makes that monthly effort.

She did not exercise, but loved to dance at family events, she ate whatever she wanted including a dish of vanilla ice cream every night, She went to the doctor only as needed and had never seen a GYN since my husband's birth. She had macular degeneration so she stopped driving in her 70's. We had her move into an assisted living facility at 98 and she was cognitively good until about 101. After that her decline was rapid and she was moved into the locked Memory unit. By the time she was 103 she no longer remembered family, friends are her daily caregiver's and she became combative with staff. The one thing that is common when the end is near is that they stop eating, drinking and sleep most of the day. We signed DNR papers and she died peacefully with her children around her.

She was the type of person who thought she should come first and was demanding and intrusive. We had to change her dining room table 4 times because the other women would get annoyed with her. You should know before going into Assisted Living we did 3 years of home health aides to keep her in her apartment, but she was so difficult they'd quit within a few months or she'd fire them. It became a revolving door of trying to get aides, hence the decision for Assisted Living. Some clients do well and some don't and their decline is faster in my opinion.

She used this ruse multiple times. When we hired companions, she'd be rude and disrespectful and they'd either quit or she'd fire them. It became a revolving door.

    My mom was riding a bike up and down hills and on the same day then later that morning, we tried but couldn't stop her from helping to round up a horse that jumped it's fence. She was a force to be reckoned with. But also had a generous and kind heart always knew everyone's name and remembered all their stories. She was a good artist and great baker I once was trying to crimp the edge of pie crust for what seemed like an hour she just walked over and said "let me show you how to do it" and did two pie crusts in what my husband says was 21 seconds and he remembered she was on the her land line phone at the same time, she was a great multi-tasker. She is dearly missed by everyone and I just wish I could be like her If I live that long but my health is already going due to cancer which I beat but it took it's toll on me .

They took the pipe he liked to smoke off him, in case of accidents. He was an organic chemistry lecturer at Liverpool University and in the 1930s spent several hours showing Einstein around. My grandad was asked to because he could speak fluent German. Grandad used to like to walk a lot. I recall being at his 100th birthday.

There is no desire to depopulate because greater masses of people mean more people to make money off of - be it by competition to keep wages or the very lucrative businesses that make money off of creating and then "solving" human suffering. The only "they" that wants to "depopulate" is a holdover of old environmentalists who would like to see birth rates lowered (and not "depopulate") but most modern environmentalists are basically Rush Limbaugh acolytes and they don't even realize it.

    My mom passed away at age 96 last year courtesy of hospice. She didn't want to die. My mom suffered from rheumatic fever as a young child which left her with a damaged heart valve. Throughout her life my mom had: gallbladder surgery, breast cancer and surgery (twice), a surgery to repair a brain aneurysm, two open heart surgeries (valve replacements). In the end, it was a wood tick that had the anaplasmosis germ that landed her in a nursing home. She could have returned home if only family would have given her some daily assistance. Instead she lived for four years in a nursing home during the pandemic. She ended up getting a form of uterine cancer and hospice was called in. Mom was a really strong woman. Lived through the depression. Lived beyond my Dad for 30+ years. Dad died of Alzheimer's at the age of 73. My mom lived on about $1000 a month. She had her wits (all of them) until hospice had their way with her for a week or so. A decision I will always regret.

      Hospice definitely has a scary side to it. They are about DEATH, period. My mother was so mad at the way Hospice told her my grandmother was going to die, as if they were prophets! It's kind of understandable because usually it does work that way. BUT like in my grandmother's case she beat the odds, and Hospice was fired! She died not to long afterwards though, because Hospice told her she was going to die, and that she needed to accept it. So, she kind of gave up. Had she had hope, she would most likely have lived much longer. THATS the problem I have with them. What about giving people hope!?!? Even if it's unlikely? God sometimes does miracles. Or, like my grandmother, sometimes the doctors are just wrong! But Hospice will take ALL hope away! I know they do some good, but I find them rather problematic due to what I have mentioned.

    My dad lived to 90, still sharp and a good memory. My mom lived to 86 with some dementia, but she was a chain smoker since age 18. Her doctor told her her smoking had finally caught up to her. I'm early 70s and hope my parents longevity is an indication I may live to my 90s. I want to as my one child, a son 42, will be very sad when I go.

    My Father lived to be 93 and if he hadn't got Hep. C. from a blood transfusion, he would have lived a lot longer. He was as bright as ever at 93 which is one thing that makes it so sad. He said he played a lot physically as a child, never really did any kind of work he wasn't happy in, stayed busy doing what he liked even chores, stayed around a lot of children since I was born late in his life and he was the driver for neighborhood children and we were the party house for dancing etc., stayed interested in hobbies, loved animals and had many dogs and cats, and also I think he had very good genes. His two sisters lived long lives too. I am not near the age my Father was but I can tell I won't live a long life. Things have happened. I've slowed down. I'm not really interested in things like I used to be. When life becomes difficult and each day becomes boring and miserable, it has to take a toll on you. My advice is: When something happens to you, don't stay stuck in it. Do whatever you can do to get unstuck. Whatever it takes, do it. I think that is the answer. Pets are also great for long lives.

    At the time of this airing back in 2022 the measure of American longevity plunged, dropping from 78 years, 10 months in 2019 to 77 years in 2020, and then to 76 years, 5 months in 2021. “We basically have lost 20 years of gains,” said the CDC's Elizabeth Arias.

An MG-TC spun out of control and pinned my MG-TD against the pit wall. I don't do wheel-to-wheel anymore. only time trials, hill climbs, TNiA, and HPDE.
