Definitely!
My SIL thinks she's helping me by dragging me around to visit her friends, all of whom are in their 70s or 80s and their spouses have all passed away. These women are all stuck living in some condition that they're unhappy in. And they're all so desperate for companionship and for someone to talk to them that when you go to leave, they plead for you to stay just another hour, even if you've been there all day.
I know if I were to live long enough and get a serious illness like cancer, or even if my thyroid issue were to get so serious that I went into a coma, I would have no one to take care of me the way I took care of my husband. Most of my family is already dead, and none of them would've taken care of me anyway. No one on my husband's side of the family would go to that much effort for me either.
It's sad because the way it seems to be is that you work and struggle your whole life. Then, if you do manage to live to an old age, you end up getting sick and you're at the mercy of people who most likely don't give a damn about you or are just hanging around you so they can get their hands on whatever money you have when you die. Plus, you get to experience your spouse and your friends and family dying before you.
I don't know why anyone would think it was a blessing to live to be old.
