Theresa drinks at least one can a day, quote, “Because I like it.  I’m going shopping Wednesday and I need more Diet Coke.  I have a bag full of empty Diet Coke cans that I need to return [to get money] to buy more Diet Coke.”

But Diet Coke or not, Theresa says she’s surprised she’s still around.  Quote, “When I was 100 . . . I thought I’d pass away . . . then I turn 101, and nothing happens.  Here I am, 104, and still nothing happens.” “I’m surprised that I’m 104.  It just doesn’t seem like I should be that old.”
