Sobering isn't the word I would choose for reaching some age north of 70 and being so healthy that no meds and mininal testing is needed. Take pride in a life that was so well lived that you are in excellent health. Unlike our ancestors many of us make it into and past our 70's because of the excellent medical care and medicines that were not available one and two generations prior. So some of us should not be too critical of those who do have to make use of the medical system.
