[@tankster5826]

@MMM. It defiantly depends what generation a person is born into. None of my generation born in the 1950’s is doing very well. Sedentary office jobs, little exercise, fast food, food grown with pesticides. My grandparents and their parents grew their own food and worked hard physically in the gardens, fields, yards. They used almost no pesticide and what they did use on rare occasion was a mild seven dust. But the corporation recently changed the formula to something toxic. They all lived into upper 80’s and into upper 90’s. My Dad taught school and was somewhat sedentary at work but he always worked hard in the yard and had physical hard jobs in the summer and lived to 84 even after factoring some years of smoking and drinking at earlier age, Of course with teaching he had real good health insurance which helped a lot. Good insurance is gone now days unless a person is rich or has great corporate job to cover it which are few, So I expect life expectancy will be dropping in the future. If a person can’t be physically active and eat right at least be rich like Crosby of crosby, stills, nash and young where a person can buy a new liver. 🤣

[@katiekat4457]

hebneh I have a question because I have my own little theory. Your mom is all there mentally. Does she also have decent hearing and vision? Doesn’t matter if she has to wear glasses or a hearing aid. I’ve noticed that the older people that are very mentally sharp also seem still able to hear and see. What I was thinking is that if you can still hear and see good then your brain is still being stimulated. Therefore you lose less neurons. I think really rings true with the vision and the ability to be able to read. Like I said this is my own little theory. I’m just an interested person. I’m not in that field of study.

[@hebneh]

Yes, she can hear and see, although of course both of those senses are impaired somewhat. I agree these would be more likely to keep someone going longer.

[@CarolynDenison]

I must agree with her on that. I know that sense my health has started to go south, I have lost some of my zest for life. The sad part is my age. I'm to young to be falling apart at the seams. I feel like a young woman at heart, but the body is playing out way to soon. I try to be active as possible, but I sure miss being able to jump up and do the things I then took for granted. I worked to long to hard and it caught up with me. Hips replaced was the start. Then the back went. I still try to do things, but forget I can't stand up anymore. I caught myself planning a trip to go dig gem stones in Arkansas. Hello!!! How the Hell am I going to do that. lol... Forget a bucket list. lol... BTW... Even though your young and in good shape, make sure you eat right. Diabetes sucks, and will effect your whole body. Every organ and even your skin.

Thank you!

[@margaretgonzalez8565]

Her voice is still clear beautiful

[@susanproctor3247]

She is amazing. My Mom died in 2016 just after turning 98. She was a nurse in World War 2.

[@choclatini]

Thank you! I'm sorry for your loss. We appreciate her service.

[@emilyb8291]

this is amazing. I love sitting down and just listening to what older people have been through. Shes so sweet. :)

[@veronicamatharu8097]

She is satisfied with her life and she is happy. Thats it !!

[@judymercer6359]

WOW.....I wish I could have known her. What an inspiration. My mother was like that, always happy and she loved people and God, she passed at age 93. I miss her so. I'm going to save this video so that when I'm down I can listen to it again. It really makes me feel happy. Rest in peace sweet lady.

[@wandaadams6329]

I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. What a beautiful, wise, intelligent lady...one to be emulated! She reminds me of my Great Aunt Janie who lived to be 2 months shy of 102. Perhaps the main key to her “happiness” is rooted in her thankful spirit. Counting our blessings tends to create a happy heart.

[@brosnan1205]

Lots of wisdom, like my mother who lived to 92 and was very sharp and active until the last 6 months from CHF. Lovely, charming, hilarious mom.

[@Mmm...yummymummy]

I think her longevity is due to common sense and her laugh. She had a great laugh.

Hello Berkeley how are you doing?

[@cindyherget5196]

Wonderful What a blessing to have this recorded. I’m fortunate to have all four of my grandparents in video. My son is old enough to have great memories of my moms parents. But my daughter is 12 years younger than her brother and doesn’t remember them they passed when she was little. My dads parents passed when I was a older teen. Oh how I miss my dads mom still.

[@Godwinpounds4333]

Hello 👋 how’re you doing?

[@MelywoodMedia]

She is articulate and so with it. I have never seen someone that age so razor sharp!

[@tugglemiles2991]

Cute lady my 3rd cousin was 109 when she died this lady reminds me if her. She lived in her home 108 years it was built by her Father.

💡Sometimes when you are not appreciating the ride in a bumpy old covered wagon you have to get out and walk awhile on your bare feet and experience some sandburs / sand burs. ☝️Then the bumpy old covered wagon is appreciated for the comfort and protection it provides. 😃 A life lesson for us all. 💞

[@cathyscarvey2461]

I wish I could've been a part of her life. She's so beautiful inside and out with perfect skin. She is truly happy and such a great example of what a Christian should look and sound like. No telling how many lives she has changed being admired by everyone that crossed her path in this life. I believe she got a straight ticket to Heaven and a bit of Heaven on earth. To bad its so few and far between to cross someone like her and she will continue to change everyone that listens to her.

[@thompsonsmith7798]

Hello Cathy How are you doing?

[@tankster5826]

@Cathy Scarvey. Don’t let the perfect skin fool ya. She isn’t dirt poor and a good dermatologist goes a long way. Plus she had only inside work, didn’t get out in the sun, I go to church with well to do ladies up in years. They go missing for several months and suddenly emerge 50 pounds thinner and with their eye bags gone. When asked they say they were off visiting family out of state or they just did a detox diet.

[@oleandergarden]

She looks much much younger! And she's an amazing individual--filled with inspiration and good advices

[@tankster5826]

@oleander garden. Most of them are actually younger. They weren’t born in hospitals back then and children didn’t have social security numbers so there was no legal documentation as to where they were born to prove their age. Some lie on purpose for attention and money and some simply can’t remember their age so they pick one.

[@FreshmenBolts]

ah man i wish you asked her more about what life was like growing up etc....she lived through world war 1 and 2, great depression etc etc!

If i make it to be that old.. the only thing I can hope for is that I still have my mind. Nothing is more sad than watching someone you love lose their memory.

She is great Ibet she is Conservative and religious. Spiritual people live long life.

@@mahribeneda6462 Don't mean to start talking politics, but since you did...don't you know that, MOST Conservatives believe in "Prosperity Preachers" (in short, THEY CONDONE BLASPHEMERS)! (Btw, I myself choose ONLY from either the Green or Independent parties.)

[@starrama7711]

actually its sadder watching those you love who don't accept it and also for me what is sadder still is when you know cures for serious ailemnts and they go to drs and get drugs..and don't get better.. close family member has alzheimer's is in nappies.. but they wont give her pure gum spirits.. what does she have to lose! I'm taking the pure gum spirits, the iodine prootocl, high dose vitamin c.. and all !

[@starrama7711]

@@mahribeneda6462 you mistake spirituality for religiosity.. you wont find the secret.. but people live as long as they need to get what they need.. or until they can't get past things...if they can't go any further... they die.. if they learned what they came for, and they want to they die.. I got the offer at age 11..already had been through enough.. but I declined.. because this, I decided, was my pivotal life.. and lol yes. I kept that a secret.. and yes..

The interviewer is such an energetic man, this just sounds like a good healthy conversation rather than all the scripted interviews you see now
