    Wow! According to this, I'll have quite a few more years to make quilts. Better get busy!

    According to that calculator, I'll make 93, another 24 years. That's too much. I know my grandfather lived to that age, but my parents both died in their mid 80's.

    Well mine said 81 . I sure hope not. Of course there is no question for all the Aortic anerysum surgeries etc that I have had. None of my family has made it to 70 .. on my maternal side and what little i know about my bio dad life I doubt he did either. They based in on the facts that I no longer smoke ,dont drink much and use a seatbelt.

    Is there one that predicts how long our minds and fingers will still work? That's all I care about!!

    Mine turned out to be 97. My Gram lived to be 99.

    Now if my kids don't give me any more reasons to flip out I should live that long...LOL
