My great grandmothers lived a full life too. One that smoked her corn cob lived to be 96 and the one that didn't made 108. I'm going for the family record. LOL Neither were ever sick either. I think all of the bad things were saved for me so I could take the punishment for them, I can handle it. I was just old enough to remember them pretty good.I have one of their hearing aids. It's like a sweeper hose with an earpiece and a small megaphone looking mouth piece where you speak. The hose is about 3 ft long.
