I think yours has a good chance. But again, who knows?
I don't think my father will live much longer - and his father died in his 70s, so he's already outlived him by about nine years. My grandfather died at 75, and my father is 84 at the moment, turning 85 soon. Also, Dad has been diagnosed with vascular degeneration - it's faster than Alzheimers, so he may only have a year or two left. I'm praying I get to see him before he dies. Right now he's okay, stumbling about with a walker or without one and driving mother crazy. He did stop smoking ages ago, but not the drinking. He still has to have a drink each night. I wished he had stopped that - because it may have added to his current condition - although most of it is due to his heart problems.
