I always thought elderly was 70 and over, but with all these disagreements about different parameters about middle age and senior ages, I think I better shut up (for once!).I think elderly is when your body begins giving out on you. Your sight goes wonky, then your hearing. Finally, your joints start getting stiff and begin hurting.
I know these things can happen at any age, but the mid-60s seem to be the starting point for most and it doesn't get better from there.
Think cataract surgery, hearing aids, and knee and hip replacements. Am I wrong?
