Several years ago I read a piece in a US broadsheet.
It concerned the death of a woman in a car accident.
The doctor doing the autopsy was a little perplexed.
The doctor asked a colleague how old the woman was.
The woman was 42
The doctor was amazed...he considered her organs to be those of a 70 year old.
What did she do he asked?
Response:she was a flight attendant and had been so for 18 years.
Food for thought.
