    I used to...

    till I pulled the plug.

    Why worry!!!? It is inevitable.

    Live your life. Enjoy!

    After they die are going to spend the rest of your life in mourning?

    If you are THAT worried, move back home with them.

    If they are THAT old, most likely they have come to grips with it already and are at peace with the idea.

    Believe it or not, a lot of old people do not want to live forever.

    Sorry to sound so harsh, but it is the truth

  • My dad was 50 when I was born, and is VERY old. He has insanely high blood pressure, yet has no health insurance and refuses to get any. He hates the doctor, and will not go. He smokes, and has a horrible diet, and I've never seen him voluntarily go on a walk. I worry about him constantly.
