Just by living a good life and enjoying it, he was an amazing man.
That is my goal, as well.
May God allow us both to make it there.
Pretty amazing. My dear grandmother lived to be 100 and 8 months, and was bed-ridden, skin over bones. God bless her.
I have the same energy today as I had at 65. I mow my entire mid-sized lawn with a push mower without stopping. Just finished a landscaping project to install 15” wide pebble rock covered edging around the 1600 SF house. This is new house built 15 months ago and the builder did not install roof gutters on any houses here. I thought the water falling from roof would cause erosion, so the pebbles break the falling water nicely. I used no dig edging held down by 8” long nylon spikes. I am 80 years young. My secret of good health is 30 minutes treadmill 6 times every week.
How many are left?
So if you don’t have a tread mill then walking 30 minutes 6 days a week would do likewise I’ll assume.
Not sure what your paced at but one can adjust and increase to keep the heart rate where you want I suspect.
That’s some longevity. Impressive for sure.
Beyond that, why should I be interested?
Why is this news?
108thats old! Its a good thing her sh*tty son didnt live that long, he would have clung to his Senate seat until he took his final McNasty breath.
I forgive her!!!!
Extreme longevity.
Also pointing out that the left vilified
her son but changed to admiration
when his anti Trump feelings came out.
They pointed out “how mean Trump was
to him, despite being a war hero”.
My Grandma (father’s mother) lived to be 98. She was rock solid up until about 96. She was religious about her 30 minute morning walk, 30 minute afternoon walk, tending her small garden, being social, and “stay off the damn couch”.
She had a fall and broke her hip at 96 and never quite recovered. She was a force of Nature her entire life. She passed 10 years ago and is legend in the family. It seems everything is still measured up to her.
That was her secret to long & healthy life...daily walks!
Wish I could get her to get a hobby.
