My Grandmother lived to be 94; was running her household until 5 months before she died. Her daughter did almost as well. And I believe it was entirely due to the fact that both of them maintained very active interest in the world around them, and in their hobbies and personal projects.
I’m very glad that you still have your Dad. I’d dearly love to still have mine.
I stayed with him last night and will for the next 4 nights.
We have three ladies helping take care of him. They take shifts, I am the relief button.
He has been doing really well lately. Except for his balance and it is difficult for him to express himself fully. At times it is pretty good, other times not.
He is still pretty tough. Very independent minded.
