I know what you mean. It just depends on the person. I work in healthcare and I see people pretty young (60’s) in such poor health that can barely walk and can’t take care of themselves. I think about how difficult the rest of their lives will be. My grandma lived alone in her own home doing everything on her own until she was 94 years old. She died at home with my parents taking care of her. She suddenly started deteriorating around age 94. My parents took care of her for about four months (with the help of hospice) and she died at home. I want to live like her and die at home with family like her.
