Can you imagine making it to your 90's and your mom is still alive?

She and her husband had four children, all of whom have died except for a son, now in his 90s.

My GiL is 101. Still very spritely, lives on her own and drives.
Made it through prohibition and both WWs.
She is still very with it even if she can't hear a thing. When we're cracking jokes she just laughs with the rest of us.

Longevity in life spans is only going to get bigger now with the incredible gains being made in medical sciences and technologies and our life expectancy exploding.
Some scientists and doctors estimate that the first 150 year old or even 200 year old will be/is born between 2008-2017. Crazy.

There is a geneticist out there who says the first human being to reach 1000 years old has already been born, is in his or her 60s today.
Dunno how accurate that is, but I read it somewhere.

My great grandmother turned 102 a few weeks ago. Her mind is still as sharp as ever and she gets around pretty good for her age.

More radical comparison.
This was flying that was very rare in their childhood flying only one or maybe two people and no cargo with a distance of only a few miles....
This is flying today that's so very common flying 400 or 500 people and tons of cargo in one flight with a distance of New York to Hawaii.....

My grandpaw, who died in 1985, and was born in 1897, once told me that when he got his first job away from the family farm, it was not walking distance so he bought a horse and rode that back and forth to work everyday. He said at that time (around 1914) there were very few motor vehicles around Morgan City.
Could you imagine riding a horse to work everyday?
Or my great granpaw who passed in 1927, he fought in the War of Northern Aggession, and lived through World War I, saw the advent of human flight, and the automobile.
