Do we ever wonder if it is possible for us to live over 100 years old?

It is actually not a wishful thinking to live over 100 years old. There were about 58,820 centenarians (people who are 100 years old or older) in Japan in 2014. According to a U.S. Census Bureau report released in 2014, there were about 55,000 centenarians in the U.S.

 In today's society, how many people really die of old age? Many people actually die from diseases, such as cancer, heart disease & diabetes, instead of old age hence to live more than 100 years old, the key is in disease prevention.

 Eating a balanced diet, exercising moderately, keeping a positive outlook on life & building a solid foundation for one's health from an early age can help in the defense against diseases & increase the possibility of living healthily for more than 100 years old.

HFMD

It is a common case for children to catch HFMD virus from childcare - this is more frequent if the school is air-conditioned. I am actually quite prepared that my girl will catch this virus one day but when she caught the virus 2 weeks ago, it was devastating as her mouth is full of ulcer, the only symptom she has, which made her refuse to take any solid or liquid. But out of my surprise, within 2 days or so, she can eat and drink well & by the third day, she no longer complaint about her mouth being pained. At first, all of us thought that she might be heaty that caused her mouth to be full of ulcer until my husband was certified that he had HFMD - it must be spread to him when he took care of my girl on the second day after she was ill.
