Yea, he played tennis (mostly doubles) until he was 88 and went blind, he loved it when he and his 85 year old partner could beat some guys in their 60's or 70's!
He has no cartilidge left in his knee joints form years of excercise and swimming is easy on the joints. I, or my sister swim with him, we do the back stroke in front of him and call out for him to head right or left, he does the breast stroke.
