    I have seen what happens to those when age comes to town. Drugs, likely all kinds, often heart related meds that bring problems of there own.
     Friends age as well, you and them get mobility problems, visits become infrequent then stop. Income drops, costs rise.
    People loose their drivers license and if rural that is like a death sentence. Increasing vision problems along with balance issues will leave you unable to perform lots of home repairs.
    Stairs will become difficult then dangerous. In social relations with others you will find your thoughts and wishes ignored then just unwanted. You may find  someone eager to assist you, and they will, right up to the point they prey on you for gain.
    I have seen all this and more. I am not going anywhere with this post, just giving the facts of life, and saying prepare ahead for this.
