Poor thing. Nobody deserves to get pneumonia.

Of course nobody deserves to get dismembered alive, but it happens anyway.

I have had pneumonia 9 times in my life. Sucked each time. Doc says that it is what will likely kill me when I get older. Fortunately, after receiving the vaccine, no recent cases (5+ years).

I got a bit of it when I was 30.
This kills many over 80.

Doctors used to refer to pneumonia as the “old man’s friend”.

Although the original reference from Osler was apparently “Friend of the Aged”; he also referred to it as the “natural end of the old man”.

Sir William Osler himself died of pneumonia some 27 years after the first edition of his book came out.

But it’s not surprising considering her age and medical condition.

Agree and at her age, pneumonia can be deadly.

Agree. She needs prayers. She also needs to resign today. The arrogance.

More likely the case, she’s in a coma. Nobody is going to report that.

Poor thing. Nobody deserves to get pneumonia.

Why is pneumonia called ‘the old man’s friend’? - NetDoctor
https://www.netdoctor.co.uk/ask-the.../why-is-pneumonia-called-the-old-mans-friend/

Feb 11, 2011 - Pneumonia is called the old man’s friend because, left untreated, the sufferer often lapses into a state of reduced consciousness, slipping peacefully away in their sleep, giving a dignified end to a period of often considerable suffering.

May God comfort her in her time of terminal distress and give solace to her family.

Considering her policy positions regarding reducing the age of consent to 12? Oh yes she does.

I am loathe to wish ill upon people but communists, pedovores and pedophiles have all shed that protection.

She is toast. I hope President Trump gets to replace her with the most far right judge he can find.

Detectives said a man recently arrested on the suspicion of drug trafficking was living in the United States illegally and had been deported eight different times. On January 12, the detectives with the Utah County Special Enforcement Team arrested 44-year-old Jose Olegario Lopez. Detectives recovered $850,000 worth of cocaine and methamphetamine following a search of his car.

Pneumonia darn near killed me last winter. At one point the hospital called an ambulance to transfer me to another hospital. I walked into the hospital and my wife was with me. I told the doctor my wife was here and could drive me over I didn’t need an ambulance, the doctor whispered to me, “It is unlikely you will make it to the hospital and you don’t want that to happen in the car with your wife driving do you?” I went in the ambulance and I did obviously survive but my pulse rate was like 225 and my blood pressure was so low you could hardly read it. It was not pretty.

Gasping for breath is not a good way to go. I don’t like Justice Ginsburg, I think she’s a Godless leftist but I don’t wish Pneumonia on anyone.
