We have a family friend who turns 103 today. She is mentally completly on the ball just gets a bit confused about days and weeks and her eyesight is poor but her general health is great although she doesnt go out. We also have a gentleman here who is 104 still goes around town with his son and is always emaculatedly dressed. Its only in the last year his son pushes him a wheelchair for distances.
How old is the oldest person you know.? |

That smashing and a great age
May I ask why she doesn't go out? That's a shame?
My mum's elderly and has certain ailments like bad eyesight and leg
Etc etc but I try and take her out at least 3 times a week to try and keep her active not just physically but mentally. |

My mum doesn't feel safe and is unsteady on her legs etc. But it doesn't stop me taking her out.

There was an old boy I knew who lived in the same retirement home as my uncle; he was 102.
The local TV station interviewed him; the reporter asked him what he attributed his long life to;
He said " well I gave up smoking"
" when was that?"
" last year" |

My dear old Dad will be 90 this month. Still lives in his own home, walks with a stick, poorly heart, failing eye sight and hearing, insists on doing everything for himself, even mows the grass (having a sit every 5 mins to rest), still has a sharp mind and a wonderful sense of humour. Always laughing and joking, and always ready to listen and give advice. I love my dad to bits and I can only hope that I have his strength of character when I get to his age. I'm just glad he finally accepted that he needed a red button panic alarm. Bless his heart, my dear Daddy |
