My mom once planned a trip up to my city with some of her friends to see a concert, they made plans a few weeks out but by the time the day arrived, she was coming up for two funerals, the group was smaller by two people. She told me "can't make long range plans when you are old, go see people right away because if you wait they might be dead!"
