Do you think 90 is old enough to fall into the “very old” category rather than just "old"?

My grandmother who is a widow will be turning 90 this year.

My grandmother has 5 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren because my sister has a child and my cousins also have children.

Ninety IS very old, as opposed to a handsome 72-year-old such as I, a golden cover boy.

My neighbor's mother was 101 when she died a couple years ago and she looked like she was in her mid to late 70's, was still sharp as a tack and got around pretty easily.
My aunt, Anna was a few weeks shy of her 100th when she died (had her fucking kids not forced her to go into the nursing home, I'm sure she would've made it well past 100!!) and she looked no older than her late 60's or so! When she WAS at home, she took care of that huge 3 story house all by herself and was still cooking extravagant meals!! She'd go out for a brisk walk every day! I'm 6' 9" and she was less than 5' tall and even I couldn't keep up with her on walks, and I'm used to walking fast!!

Yes. I am old but 90 is very old.
