Your Mom was quite a roll model. Impressive.
You think she worked for Pillsbury?

Hopefully, sharp enough to manage to kill myself if I'm diagnosed with dementia! I cannot imagine wanting to continue to live with a less than functional brain. Am not one of those "Oh, I can still enjoy eating ice cream and looking at the pretty flowers" types of people.

Wow, you are an inspiration. I'm not about to go flying though but maybe just a bit of jogging.I will be 78 this year, and can pass a flight physical for my pilot's license.

Can you play now? That would be a good start.I wonder if I'll be able to play the piano when I'm 80.....

If I'm any dumber at 80 than I am now at 73+, I figure I'll be terminally bewildered.

The problem is that you may become one of those types of people over a period of time and not realize that it is happening. (It might be happening as you read this post).
Aaack! What was that number for the Hemlock Society again?

Not sure why anyone acting alone (the victim) would care what the law is, in such a case.I'm with you. Maybe live close to Oregon or hope that other states change their laws.

One of my little games as I lay down for the night is "OK, what did I have for lunch? and for dinner?" So far so good but I'm only a kid at 65. Dunno what I'll do if I can't remember...Sixteen years to go. Mom is 86 (going on 18) and sharp as a tack; like talking to a 40 year old. Her dad was equally sharp until his passing at 92 and HIS father died at 104 from an accident--he was stepping over a 3 foot fence and fell.
Unfortunately I take more after my dad who passed at age 57.
No problems with forgetfulness as of yet and still remember things from my very early childhood (crawling because I couldn't yet walk etc)...now, remembering what I had for lunch today is another matter.
