I was told by a doctor that if one lives to a certain age, the chances of living five years more, is something, one can expect. Assuming they are in good health.
Dying young is a relative term. My uncle who passed at 99 was one of 11 children.
A brother passed at 99,
A sister passed at 102.
Another sister passed at 104.
Survived by a remaining sister who is 104.
I once asked him what happened to his other 6 siblings. He said, "they are died young", as they were in their 70's.
True story.
