Answer 1

You are just lucky.

Have you seen a car running for 100 years without any repair?

it is possible for someone to never get ill if they keep themself helthy

Answer 3

I think you are just lucky, is impossible to never get sick, even when you get some immunity to some diseases.

Human Immune system is really good, but not perfect.

however, if you take care of yourself it is possible to not get sick so often.

i hope i help you ;)

Answer 4

You can't have immunity.

You have a very good immune system, and you're probably very healthy, which is great!

You can, however still get sick (even though you havn't recently).  

On a more scientific note, it's almost impossible for someone to NEVER get ill, because it is only by getting ill when our bodies generate antibodies (which fight off bad things) that stay in your body for life and protect you against illness.

Answer 5

Your immune system is top notch.  But, remember, you immune system works by encounters.  You are constantly bombarded by yeast, bacteria and viruses daily.  You body's ability to fight them off is due to you immune systems base immunities and the ability to acquire immunity from past exposure.  Going six years without feeling ill isn't that extraordinary for someone you age.  Heck, until I married a teacher(bringing home germs from school) I never got ill.

BTW, people get the beginnings of illness without noticing because their immune systems kicks in immediately and they never notice more than a little fatigue or a slight feeling "different".  Basically, it never gets to the point of clinically significant or noticeable symptoms.
