..i'm only 105!
RED LION, Pa. -- A Pennsylvania woman has just one complaint after celebrating her 106th birthday. Minnie Stein is sure she's only 105.
Stein's daughter, Joan Gillespie, said her mother has always thought that she was a year younger. But Gillespie said a birth certificate obtained from Harrisburg, Pa., shows that her mother was born in 1899.
Stein struggles to hear and see, but she still lives on her own. She makes her way around her small apartment, 26 steps up from the street, slowly but steadily.
Stein has lived alone since her husband, Ervin, died at age 52. Gillespie said her mother resists pleas to move in with family members or into an assisted-living home.
Stein takes no medications and attributes her longevity to eating well and taking vitamins.
