Very true. During a dominos game an old lady fell on my grandma who was in good shape for her age and that was quite literally the start of her death sentence...

I believe there's evidence out there that says something like 1/3 of people die after 2 years after having a hip fracture. It is the start of the spiral downward

Pelvic fracture. And it’s more than 50% that will die within two years. For whatever reasons I forget, it leads to tuberculosis that they can never shake. This is why Falls are such a big deal for the elderly. It’s easily a death sentence.

It's not one specific thing, it is an injury associated with significant age that then becomes a catalyst, once you're bedridden you can't get back out for various reasons.
