Was this a premonition?

So I came across a news article online about a film that is coming out in July 2027. I was sat there thinking about how much my mum would probably like it when I suddenly and completely unexpectedly thought to myself "She won't be alive by then to see it".

For context, my mum is healthy, in her sixties and has no known health concerns, so it isn't like she is very old or suffering from a serious illness etc.

I don't know where this thought came from, it was so out of the blue but it felt so real. It is nothing that has ever really happened to me before. Now I'm worrying was this a premonition?

No it wasn't a premonition I don't believe anyone can predict the future, I think it more likely a subconscious fear you have of your mums mortality as she ages
