I'm not sure I want to live that long."She's in very good health, she's got good sight, is able to read the papers and watch television, and doesn't walk with a stick," White added.

My great Grandma lived to 103, they kept telling her she needs full time care, lol she kept firing them and insisting they didn't know how to make the bed right 
I lived in the fist floor of her 2 family house her last years, she was a spunky rich woman, who asked me to go to 3 different stores because of the sale prices (we're talking 5 - 10 cent differences). She grew up through the depression and had a totally different mindset. She saved all her money and never spent it on herself.
Great woman and she regularly told me she lived a full life, watched her husband and her kids pass away, if she dies not to be sad she was ready to go.
She has an audio interview at Ellis Island
