There is an Aunt of my Father. She is 100+ years old & still can walk properly & go here & there. She is the most oldest lady which i saw in my faimly yet. We people are very surprise that her age is impressive & she does n't has any particulat disease & keep on going on long tours. May God bless her with more age!!!!!!!!

Wow... how wonderful indeed! I wouldn't mind living a ripe old age as long as I still had all my facilities about me and wasn't sickly.

That is a great age - 98. The oldest person that I know of in our family was my grandfather who lived to be 88. Now my aunt - his daughter will be 85 next week. She is my oldest living relative.

My great aunt (sister of my maternal grandmother) lived to the age of 98 or 99 -- I can't quite remember. She was quite lucid and had a real sense of humor right up until she was around 95 and lost most of her hearing. Once that happened, she really started to decline fast. She was a lovely woman and lived a good life :)

My Grandmother is the oldest person in our family. She loves me most from all of her grand child (i watch so far..). She is about 80 years old. Now a days, she is sick & one of her leg has broken down & it is really hard for her to walk.
Without help of others she can not move for long distance..
My maternal Grandmother is also a old woman & she is about 85. But still she looks so strong & beautiful. Few days ago I went to meet with her & she gifted me a shirt & pant. I feel lucky among all of my cousin that she loves me a lot.
Often, I called my Grandmother as Darling & she feels happy for that... I can realize it when I watch her face, I see a nice smiling face.
