I’ll be 101.
I just hope they don’t install the C-3PO model on my chassis.

In past 5 years, both hips, plate with 12 screws in ankle and titanium spacer with 4 screws in my neck.
I am on my way.

I will be 110. I could use some upgrades now. How do we speed this up?

Six million dollar man comes to mind. The robotic stuff will probably cost that much or more, installation not included which will probably be at least that much.

What kind of robots? - just put on your prosthetic bra, catheter in its bag, stick your dentures in your mouth, your lens on the eyes, hearing aids in the ears, wig on the head, oxygen mask on the nose and you’re ready to face the world. Don’t need no stinkin’ robots;)

“Some activities will be less enjoyable...”

Ah, but think of the possibilities. I will get the turbo model. No more Viagra, and the girls will love me.

They had better cure Brain Fog disorders first. Old brain, new body. Sounds dangerous

****Old brain, new body. Sounds dangerous****

Old body and a new brain would be worse;) But we already have transplants for everything - limbs, hearts, lungs, livers, even faces.

It’s good that we place a high value on human life, except for the unborn; IMHO using aborted fetuses is evil.
