Patience, diebriandie. As an American by birth, I know BS, and I can attest to you and any other young’ns round here that there’s so much BS coming your way it’s gonna make your head spin!

In search of the next oldest woman, Flossie Dickey is 110 year old as of Feb 2016. Her favourite activity is taking a nap.
