my mom had me at 41, didn't require much care until her 90s. *shrugs* Same. My dad was 51 and 4 months and my mom 2 months away from her 42nd birthday when they had me. They both stayed mentally sharp until the end, but of course physically started to wear down a bit in their eighties. They passed at 93 and 92 and 7 months about nine years apart.

my mom had me at 41, didn't require much care until her 90s. *shrugs* MIL was still incredibly active right up until she was struck down by a terminal condition when she was just shy of 80. She was out on long rambling walks with the dog three times a day and was forever toddling off on holidays that revolved around walking tours. She still did her best to get out and about even when she was hauling an oxygen bottle about and it was only the pandemic that slowed her down and kept her home long before her condition could do its worst. If anything, I'd say that not being able to get out and about sped thing up. On a side note, I was reading about an 80 year old lady called Jane Dotchin who still completes a 600 mile solo pony trek every year, and has been doing it every year since 1972. Getting old doesn't always mean giving up.

My mom had me when she was in her early 40's. I grew up being called her menopause baby.

I mean, sure, having a baby at 57 isn't great, but unlike a certain pasty jackass from South Africa, I expect Gordon at least has an interest in his kids that goes beyond his own ego.
