    Most people in the west get like that before triple digits. My cousin’s grandfather made it into his 90s with a healthy capable body, still doing physical tasks, and then suddenly his body’s condition took a dive and he was elderly and incapable for some years after that until he passed. Most people who don’t die of something else before they get there experience that at a younger age, where one month they are old but still able then suddenly their body turns against them the next month.

    Though it is possible that Kissinger died of some illness or health condition that didn’t involve that nose dive.

    Though either way, I don’t think anyone benefits from someone else’s suffering (other than sadistic pleasure) and prefer the idea that he can no longer pick up a phone and talk to people who have power to affect things.
