She didn't leave her apartment since she was 97. That is truly amazing. I can't stand mine for more than a couple days.

  It sounds like she spent 15-17 by herself too (article says she only recently got care). I can't imagine what that isolation would be like.

    What if longevity is explained partly by the resilience to social isolation?
