Ack, that's definitely the kind of conversation that's awkward and hard to direct to a more positive end, especially when you put in a nice effort to call and be cheering. Sorry to hear it. My grandfather is in his 80s and still going strong, so it's rather sad when a guy in his 70s is so very depressed about the direction of his life.
