A comparison. My father died at 67; lay down at 1 pm and was declared dead by 4 pm. My mother currently resides in a nursing home, age 90, eats, takes medicine, will never walk again, and barely remembers me. I read part of that book in bookstore and currently have it on library reserve. The author is accurate, but damn negative and decidedly left-wing. I have a goal of living until 100, but not to live in the conditions I see every day in the nursing home. Absolutely no quality of life. BTW: My mother saw her mother in a nursing home and swore she would never spend one day in one. When you lose control, the game is over.
