Seeing the story made me wonder if I would want to live that long. I think I would as long as I am healthy and some what independent.

I don't mind being 110 so long as I can change my own nappy, ya know what I mean. Though I'm not sure being 100+ years old is so hot if the love of your life croaks at 89. That's a long road to hoe alone.
I'd be all about finding a replacement as soon as possible, perhaps eharmony might develop a section for super seniors in the next 90 years.
I could imagine the descriptions:
Tyrone-"Have two of my own teefs"
Luther-"Will chew my lady's food"
Maggie-"Adore tepid sponge baths"
But seriously, the journey of independence in old age correlates to how you live your life when you are young. Many of us don't think of it now, we are much to young to care, and think this nerve and verve of youth will last a lifetime.
Nope.
Go to realage to see if you are truly young at heart. You may be surprised at what it tells you.
Perhaps you can enact some changes now, that will add years to your life.
Cheers,
P
