Hi Everyone, I had a triple bypass at age 68, and a triple A ( Abdominal Aortic Anursam ) at age 78 .

I am now 90 and am still Mobile and don't have any medical problems that I know of except feeling tired after a little bit of work, or after playing 9 holes of golf once a week.

Hello :-)

I think if I took golf up it would be others that would need luck letting me lose with a golf stick and ball :-)

Well done though to you I really as I said needed to read something positive like you have posted :-) x

Thank you for that encouraging post! My husband has also had a triple bypass and a ruptured AAA, but is much younger than you. He plays golf 3 times a week but I’m sure he’ll be very happy to still be playing when he’s 90!
