I realize that my previous post linked to this makes me seem like a horrible person, so I have to fill it in with more details.

After I spoke to my aunt at home she said that she was angry with me. My mother said the same thing in the other room in our apartment in Bulgaria, but I told her directly "Okay, her legs may be very slightly weaker during her life, but she powered through, so her heart will get much stronger from those stairs, which means she would live much longer."

At this point my mother took a pause and just stood there saying nothing.

She walked in the other room after about 15 minutes of looking at me in shock and spoke with her while sitting there. My aunt was happy that I asked her politely, assertively, to continue climbing up the steps in the mountains in the village we were in during summer vacation.

So I guess I could say only one thing to all middle aged people. Your bodies are fairly strong, but after coffee, alcohol, and sometimes previous smoking -your hearts are weak. Even if your body feels tired while walking somewhere... or for some reason related to a child's liveliness... climbing steps... power through. You'll live much longer, and you'll still be able to walk everywhere you want to and climb to your apartment floor or workplace.

Post Scriptum: A few days passed and I said something which is a bit silly. "Do you think if my aunt's heart is stronger she would re-gain the small amount of strength she lost in her legs with time? Maybe they'd get stronger as well?" My mother said nothing, my aunt was somewhere in her apartment or at work.

P.P.S. I am not a medical professional, which needs to be written as a disclaimer, so everything I type can be taken lightly.
