You could be right. Many don’t survive beyond 30 days.

They had better be willing to part with their pancreas - because I believe the "left rib fractures" are just liberal speak for pancreatic cancer.

If so, she probably has months left at the most.

My husband fell and broke 3 ribs in June. That was the beginning of the end. He passed away October 20th. He was 79.

I’m rooting for the pneumonia.

I’m tired of the anti-American liberal who hates me and my country and rules against my rights.

Yeah that was my point. Just getting the cracked ribs to heal will take longer at that age than it would take at a younger age. Even for a young person taking on donated ribs would be a lengthy recuperation period. At 85 she would probably pass before they healed all the way.

Ever read Neuromancer?

In the Japan of the future (at least the future as it was from 1984) there are underground “black clinics” where people get ambushed and sent to for organ harvesting. If you’re rich enough you can afford new young hearts, lungs, kidneys etc.

Santa Monica Observer is reporting that she told her clerks that she is out of remission and will be retiring January 2019. Make of this information what you will.

I’ve got some excess ear wax! If she likes, I’ll save the Qtips.

She could very well come back from it - she’s a very tough lady; and Thank You for your kind consideration toward the elderly.

I was once stuck at home alone in a huge snowstorm, with the worst ‘flu of my life, and husband out of town with our only car. I was coughing so hard that I did something bad to myself - either cracked a rib or sprained my diaphragm.

Took many weeks to heal and my breathing hasn’t been the same since. I wouldn’t wish that pain and disability on anyone.

It’s kind of ghoulish for the Freepers to be posting here like turkey buzzards waiting for roadkill; doesn’t look good for us, especially considering the power that we have now.

I like to think that ‘noblesse oblige’ is still an ideal...

People, especially younger people, were offering the octogenarian affectionately known as RBG their own ribs on social media Thursday morning.

And we are told they are our future...

So, you’re going to hang on to your appendix? Just wait until it burst, you’ll wish you had donated it to poor ol’ Ruthie.

Being ‘alive’ versus being ‘functional enough to sit on the Supreme Court’ are two different things entirely.

Huge difference.
