    My mum worked at a nursing home where this lady was 114. She was annoyed cos she wrote her auto-biography at 99, and she said had she known she'd live so much longer she'd have waited till she was 110!

    Awesome!!! I have a longevity story of my own.

    My Great Grandma lived to be 108!

    When it was nearing the time for her to go, the doctors could not find anything medically wrong with her, my grandma tells us that she thinks that great grandma must have decided that it was finally her time to go.

    (Sorry that sounds kind of morbid, I didn't intend it to be).

    So the first canned food was preserved for 48 years?
