If I had any Dementia or needed help with every little thing then no I would hate that.

I and other Students were however talking a few weeks ago to a former Professor of the UNI who is now 97,his insight to the past was incredible and he looked nothing like in his 90s and still walked unaided.If I was like that, definately yes, to living to be 100.
I didn't realise you were only nineteen, your posts have such an air of maturity to them. You are so level headed.

In answer to the thread question, to live to that age with the feebleness that comes with it, I think no way do I want to live to such an age and feel like a burden to others.
