I have a healthy 91 year-old Grandpa who would disagree with your assessment as a function of age. I also had a Great Grandma live until 97 and lived in a low assistance facility for 15 years. They just did cleaning and prepared dinners. She was quite happy and productive aside from the last 6 months when her mobility fell off rapidly.

I do agree with you on euthanasia should be an option for anyone of sound mind or a living will that specifies euthanasia at a certain point of loss of function.
