This is hugh!

If it was me, I'd just tell the doc to give me the Rommel death.
How sad for Sophia. Seniors are so prone to falls. Last New Years eve I fell down a flight of stairs and broke my collar bone and three ribs. It was the second time I fell down the same stairs. I have had five injury invoking falls within the last 10 years.
None of them was caused by me being drunk.

Dad told me 40 years ago that I’d get old someday and appreciate that advice
“That’s why a bought a house with no stairs”
Because Sophia Loren might fall there? heck, I’d put in stairs to get her to come over!
Why wait? Go right ahead. Although maybe you'd prefer the Goebbels death...
Prognosis is grim, especially at her age. You got infection and rehabilitation that an 89-year old can’t do.

Very sad situation for her.
Had a couple meself.
I’d respond, but you’ll probably run like a little bitch to the Mods and get my post yanked again.
Okay, for historical purposes, we need someone to post that pic of a jealous Sophia staring at Jayne Mansfield’s assets while sitting at a dinner table.
You left out “whiney”.
I always thought she was beautiful woman and loved her movies!
Prayers up for her.
Truer words... 
Definitely a beautiful woman, and a lady.
