[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 176204, member: 1944"] They would be interesting stats for sure. My grandparents made it to 90's, my parents to 70 and 80, with chronic conditions. But I lost a sister at 52, and a brother at 59, so I worry.............heart attacks. My sister was sedentary, and took huge amounts of meds, my brother never took care of himself too much til he remarried at 49, I think the damage was done. My theory is the work we do keeps us healthier longer, heart etc, but the broken body parts could affect the quality of life in the end. But it has been debunked by a driver who retired who used to run maratons, and had no bad habits, dropped dead a yr after he retired of a heart attack. And another from cancer. I think 1/3 is heredity, 1/3 is lifestyle, and 1/3 is luck. And there is only 1/3 you can control. Interesting thread by the way, hope we get comments. Bet we would get more if we moved it. [/QUOTE]
