My point is that it is ridiculous to spend money on expensive tests when they admit that, if they found cancer, they would not treat her because the treatment would kill her. If I were 95, I would not want intrusive tests done on me. I don’t believe she ever had carpal tunnel syndrome because she never did repetitive work. Every time she has an ache or pain, they did surgery, well into her 80s, and then she would say they didn’t fix it. Did I mention that her doctor has her on uppers because she lacks energy and sleeping pills because she can’t sleep? Besides, she is my step-m-i-l and lives 1500 miles away, so I do not take her to her doctors.

I won’t live to see you reach a similar age, but I suspect you may have a different view when you get there.

I never expected to see 50, wish I had been a little more far sighted, things might have worked out differently.

Beware anyone who assumes they have a right to determine the quality of your life, because it will never be in your best interest, but in their own.
