Hundred-and-six-year old Valdemira Rodrigues de Oliveira got engaged to her 66-year-old 'boyfriend' Aparecido Dias Jacob. Medics had assessed their health and age and warned the duo would not be able to cope with living on their own. So they decided to get engaged at the Nossa Senhora Fatima retirement home, where they lived in two separate rooms. It's the first time both Valda and Jaco have been married. Neither of them has children and most of Valda's relatives have died while Jaco has lost touch with his family.
