My father rn, only in his late eighties. Slowly letting himself die, won’t do anything to help himself or let us help him except bring food and wine and do his shopping. Literally ran out of tp and used paper towels instead of going out and buying some. And he can drive and get around but won’t for most basic shit. Fucking tiring shit
My dad too, same thing. Only out of bed for a few hours a day, not because he can’t, because he won’t. Except I think he’s still in his 70s… Borderline to hit 80s tho
i read an interesting post under a Who live video a couple years ago, Roger Daltry was 78 or thereabouts, singing on stage and dancing about and someone was commenting “he’s the same age as my grandfather, who can barely shuffle down the hallway in slippers”

Yeah I’d be done too.
My FIL was like that, but she had cut the toxic cord well before he passively killed himself.
Unfortunately he ended up dying on Valentine’s Day which really soured the holiday for a while.
