Misc how old do I look? I dont care about troll comments.

So let me explain the back story.

I went thru Hodgkins Lymphoma and you guys were there with me thru every single bit of it about 10 years ago.
After that the doctors believed I developed a super rare genetic disease called cutis laxa.
This disease basically destroys your skin collagen and also attacks your lungs. Today my lungs sit at about 35% functioning, but my skin was hit fairly hard too.

Some large amounts of very loose skin appeared, and a lot of wrinkles all over.

Anyhow, I have 2 little girls now, 2 and 3 years old.
I walked into a restaurant and someone looked at my daughter and said "hanging out with grandpa today?"
I was like wtf? Like, sure I dont look 36, but I dont look like a grandpa do I?
I corrected him, but to be honest, **** hurt inside.

Anyhow, would you guys assume I am a 3 year olds grandpa if you saw me with a 2 or 3 year old? Like Im just in my head about it now.
RIP mainsqueeze530

y u leave us so early bro?

My grandmother died from Hodgkins Lymphoma at 57. Thankful you survived it.

Have you looked into hyaluronic acid as a supplement or filler?

Haircut is solid when I style it/the beard.
Interesting thought on the grays... I could def do that, but never considered it.

My skin is super super sensitive so facials in the past have caused further scarring or redness. May try something else though

They have so many skin care options from Europe now that you can find something or a care routine for home.

They call it mid-life but it doesn't have to be a crisis

It's just halfway, average lifespan in the US is about 77

So you still have the whole other half of your life to live

Whereas I am unsure if I will even survive this year

But I'm not afraid of death or old age

I'd prefer old age over early death

Never know when the Lord will take ya really

But He is the best of planners so I'm ready when it comes

His decision is the wisest one and He already knows when I'll die

Just by reading your post...you already know you look older than your age...you're just asking us for confirmation


If you're really 36...then easily look 10-15+ years older, I would never think you're mid-30s

Basically asking to see if I look 45ish (which is what I see in my head)
Or much older.

Seems 45-50 is the consensus.
