Agree. At 66, with my joints falling apart, I keep thinking ‘I’m only 66!’. I guess our generation has been conditioned to think we aren’t allowed to get old. When I was young, 66 WAS old. I sure don’t feel old, except when I wake up in the morning and it takes me several minutes of walking before the pain goes away.
I turned 64 in October. In November, the electrician in my heart retired, and I had to have a pacemaker installed to take over. The only symptoms were that my heart suddenly slowed down to 45 bpm when the electrician retired.
I still don't feel old, keep up with my 44 year old nephew in many things.
