(112,716 posts)A chronological measure means little on the individual level. If that were the case most of those would be dead when they reach the age that their parents/grandparents died. I have friends whose parents died of cancer in their 30s. Were they "old?"

(1,530 posts)I am thrilled to be 60. I'm a lifelong heart patient and have a few other health problems that make me absolutely thrilled to have reached this age. My license plate is MDIT26O.
That said, I do hear you (sarcasm notwithstanding).
Happy early birthday! 🥳 🎉 🫂

(2,008 posts)My brother will turn 60 next week, and he's had medical challenges throughout his life too. I'm 2 years older, and there were countless times over the years I was deeply concerned about him, so I'm thrilled he's making it to 60.
Love the license plate!
