I did all my financial modeling for retirement out to age 100, starting to draw Social Security at my full retirement age of 66 + 4 months. Since being diagnosed with cancer, I no longer expect to live that long. It's certainly possible--my cancer is at an early and treatable stage--but with cancer there is always a possibility that it will come back...
I'm debating whether to start drawing Social Security at age 62 rather than FRA. How would, or did, a serious medical diagnosis change the date you start drawing SS? (By a "serious medical diagnosis" I mean a medical condition that has the potential to shorten your life.)
