Years ago I had a hospice patient that was 108 years old. Her main caregivers were her children who were in their 80's, with support of their children who were in their 50's. And yes, they had children who were also starting to have children. Family get togethers had to be something!
The aunt of my mother already has great-great-grandchildren, and she is only around 90 years old. Meanwhile her sister (my grandmother) only has grandchildren.
