How would you like to live until you're 113 years old (or young as some prefer). Follow this link for the story:

I read that article - truly amazing for someone to live to be that old. Just recently a woman I knew died - she was 100 years old - she always asked my parents about me - she liked the nickname ticka - thats how she remembered me and asked about me all the time.

It isn't too far fetched to say that more and more people will be living closer to 113 years old as the life expectancy continues to rise. :)

That's true Alpesh and Shannon. I'll say she had an awesome life. :) She was born in 1890, so she did miss the Civil War.
