My grandmother lived to 90, my great grandmother to 96 and my greataunt to 104. In their terms, you're still a spring chicken!! I read somewhere that the cut off date for this surgery was 55. Dr. Rabkin laughed when I asked him about it. You do what is best for you from the point of view of taking each day as it comes, not as though you're planning a trip to the grave! You go girl, and don't let anyone tell you differently! Best of luck, DEbby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
