Several wheelchairs, walkers, canes and crutches.
The photos my sister shared with me looked like the walking wounded.
Getting old ain't fun.
Best friend dealing with his 95 year old Mom and other best friend's Dad was in hospital for 9 days with pneumonia and now in rehab.

I've known quite a few people who live good, active lives into their 80s.
But man it's downhill fast from there. The 90s look like absolute shit. Just a bunch of people feeling pain all the time and watching their friends die. Their minds are slipping and the real unfortunate ones know it so they're just mad about it all the time.
I think I'd probably be fine checking out around 88. Kids would be in their mid 50s. Grandkids to/through college. I'm good at that point. Great Grandkids don't pay shit for attention to their great grandparents for the most part. Not gonna be much more traveling worth doing.
Gives me another 45 years. Yeah - that seems good.
