Came across the interesting article on Life Expectancy in different states on my online AARP email and thought I would share it with you. But don’t start planning your funeral just yet :lol:

Sue, it looks like I'm on borrowed time. :shock: The women in my family live until about 84. My mother live to almost 88 but didn't know anything for a long time. Harold's mother was almost 95 when she died.

Another comment.. Our life expectancies have dropped with the number of Covid deaths experienced in the U.S.

Don't forget that most life expectancy charts tell you the life expectancy of someone who has just been born. Once you get older, your life expectancy is longer because other people in your cohort have died.
