I’m pretty sure that’s code for National Deathcare.

“Why is younger (age 43) worse for surgery?”

I don’t think it does.

I think this started with not carefully quoting the daughter and then altered again by writers that assumed wrongly what was originally written.

The daughter referred to her being so young and referred to the swelling of the brain making it difficult to operate.

From the article:

“But because she was so young, and with the swelling, there wasn’t enough space to go. Whereas somebody who had a stroke that was older, there’s less brain and more space.”
