Besides pages of examples of people who have changed their lives , setting records in marathons/bodybuilding in their 70's , 80's even 90's you keep talking about ending up in a nursing home unable to care for yourself and that's why you and TBL have searched for Euthanasia drugs on the internet. You say your in pretty good health now but you rather search for a painless way to end your life when you get feeble rather than try to keep from getting feeble by doing things to slow down the declining effects of aging . I don't advocate exercise , suppliments or PED's to make one look younger (although that is sometimes a secondary effect) but to keep oneself as strong, vibrant as we can be till we die. Not all elderly end up in nursing homes or are feeble ---- walking with walkers or in wheel chairs. Many live viable long lives till they drop dead or die peacefully in their sleep.

To be honest, I, and probably others as well, am sick of your preaching. If you had bothered to follow the conversation you would have seen I was responding to someone who was advocating life at any price, even bedridden, and I said that wasn't a price I would be prepared to pay, but keep plugging your endless cure-alls for a better and healthier life by all means. BTW, there must be some pics of some octogenarian running marathons that you haven't posted yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a start, most of them were born extremely attractive, so they have a head start. Secondly, they're all rich so have personal trainers, dieticians etc. They never have to worry about getting up at 5 o'clock in the morning and go and do a 12 hour day of manual labour. Have nannies to look after the kids, personal chefs, no money worries. Comparing someone like Sly Stallone to a bus driver is like comparing apples to oranges. Speaking of Sly, when he arrived at an Australian airport 12 years ago, he was caught with banned human growth hormones. I'd say he's juiced himself up to the eyeballs.

At 70 years old, she was on multiple medications for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and acid reflux. Doctors were telling her she needed to up the dosages—unless she made a drastic lifestyle change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ54 Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Everyone is aging everyday and as you I’m moving up there. You habe to try and do what makes you happy and enjoy. If something thats affects you personally sometimes you have to get cranky. Other things like what someone says on the forum not worth getting flustered. I was an guy that would get angry about almost everything. I just told myself why.... I’ve calmed down and enjoy life now and again. My wife once told me I was a cat with 9 lives ( 4 heart attacks started at 39 now closing up to 66), Sometimes when I look in the mirror I laugh because I make some of the expressions my Dad made rest his soul. Other times I think I quite the comedian looking in the mirror. Anyway just enjoy life when you go you go.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent a lot of cash on those nice bodies, and the only thing I regret about it all is that I don't remember much about it 20 years later. Old age is such a <deleted>.

I'm not pessimistic; I'm realistic ( and very very cynical when it comes to people ). I spent over 20 years as a nurse, so I KNOW what is ahead of me, and why anyone would want that I don't know. Most people are completely ignorant about nursing homes, and ignorance is BLISS. Unfortunately, once in a nursing home, other than natural causes, the only escape is starvation, and even I don't want to go out that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently I look younger than my age, but I don't think that will last long. My 24 year old Thai partner tells me I am starting to look old and should do more exercise. We have lived together more than 4 years and she definitely makes me feel younger. If not for her I might be in an old age home by now. Love my little fountain of youth. ???? I play World of Warcraft online most days and that definitely keeps my mind active due to all the fast action and difficult challenges. Been playing more than 13 years so I think that may have kept my mind from deteriorating too much, although I am starting to forget things... hang on... what was this topic about again? Let me get this straight...you were 62 and your partner was not yet 20? And some people wonder why the Thais apparently want us out of the country. I don't care if you are a rock star or a billionaire...that is downright creepy by any standard. You play World of Warcraft, what does she do? Play dress up Barbie and Ken?

ChrisKC Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 How awful it would be if you knew the way and the time it would actually happen? At 70, you can believe you will live to a 100 and therefore have nearly 50% of your life still to come! Yes, you will become weaker and maybe suffer some ill health along the way but there are many much younger people (including a few on this forum) for whom being weak and unhealthy are facts of life for them now and are concerned about dying sooner as well! For me, I have my moments when I fear dying - but not of death itself! I am not depressed and believe I can avoid an even earlier death by not thinking so much and creating stress about a very much unknown quantity. If I can go to bed one night and never wake up, that is my preferred way out. You wouldn't be human if you didn't think this way from time to time but one of the best ways of thinking in a certain way is to find as many distractions as possible: your loved ones, your activities, your plans, whatever they are or could be. Somebody suggested you make a plan to do some things you really would like to do. Not a wish list but a To Do List!! Don't die your death while you still have your life!
