October 8th...It's official ! Celebrating the arrival of my 65th year! Not the milestone some of you seniors use, but I happy, proud and soooooo pleased to have arrived at the place where I don't need to pay for private health care solo anymore. Coming from a family of quite YOUNG deceased relatives...65 looks good to me !!! *VBS* I am second oldest of the living cousins on my mother's side. She died of congestive heart failure at 52. Maybe that gives you an idea why I'm soooo happy to be 65.

Belated Happy Birthday from me too, Finn! I can relate to your feelings about outliving your rellies. My mum died when she was 57. She had her first of many strokes when she was 37, and by the time she died, she was not much more than a vegetable, as the saying goes. No quality of life left. I turned 57 this year, and have just started medication for high blood pressure, and although I did not want to go on it at all, I'm told by my doctors that I should be grateful that I didn't follow my Mum into an early grave.
