Experiencing firsthand how difficult an aging alcoholic, quadriplegic, post stroke, narcissistic, demented or simply ‘nothing’s wrong with me, I can drive, I don’t need those meds, I don’t need to go to a nursing facility’ kinda parent surely gives you some insight on what to do, what not to do and how to prepare for our own aging and eventual demise.

How do you plan to age gracefully and what advice do you have for us all?

low/no carb diet. Exercise daily. Get lots of sleep. I'm 47 and feel better now than I did in my 20's when I ate the standard american diet. Meditation and yoga to get rid of daily stress.

...what do you mean no-carb diet? are you charging yourself from the wall outlet?

There are plenty of fats and proteins you know.
