I fear old age more than death. Unbless there's an afterlife.... My dad said to kill him if he ever gets old, and I don't think he was entirely joking. I share the same sentiments. Old age would be painful....

you know what they say: you're as young as you feel.
But I don't fear death at all, but I admit if I did happen to live past 75, I'd want to be 'put down' or 'put to sleep'. What's the pont of living at that age if you're just too old to actually DO anything? and it's not like you're kids r gonna wanna c u all the time anyway.

Plus, the older you are, the longer it takes to heal. At least with bones, anyway.

I fear old age because I'll probably be weak, with arthritis and bone problems. But some people can stay strong and healthy in old age, and for all I know I may be one of them. I saw posters somewhere that had an old woman lifting weights and said "Growing Old is Not For Sissies."

As far as fearing death goes, then I don't fear it, I just won't rush to embrace it, either, Most of the time, anyway.

I would hate it if my children (if they will be any) toss me into a nursing home with seriously mental grannies and grandads, and leave me there to rot. I reckon it would suck being old, because you're automatically disable. And what if no-body came to see you, and talk with you.
I would also hate it if I had to bust my balls trying to reach the toilet it time, and couldn't even remeber my friends' names. Extremly tragic.

I'd hate being old. The elderly are treated with no respect.
