Nothing really funny about it. 68 year old people have been known to die of pneumonia, especially if they don't take good care of themselves.
I mean, remember that whole William Henry Harrison thing back in the 1840s. If she were to be elected we may end up one long winded speech away from a Tim Kaine administration.
I'm planning to visit a 70-something friend in the hospital, who has pneumonia (following a broken hip). She is on a ventilator -- has a breathing tube down her throat plus a nasal tube feeder, because the food keeps going down her windpipe and not into the stomach. She has not eaten anything solid for at least a week.
I am praying for her recovery.
