Age 86?

[Mitch86]

How many have made it to 86? Per this link very few white American males make it that long:

I made it this far. How about you? Are you happy you made it this long? I'm happy I made it but my Geriatrician visits me every 6 weeks now at home to try and figure out how much longer I will last.

I saw a graph recently that showed Americans have a shorter life-span than other developed countries. Probably has a lot to do with how we eat and what's in the air.

You're 20 years older than me. Because of serious spinal injuries about 30 years ago I had no desire to live past 70. I saw no reason to live with that much pain. But a back surgery in 2017, a foster son the following year, and my marriage this year changed my mind.

I am 88 and will be 89 in January. Many seniors are making into their 90s and 100s due to better health habits and diet.
