What actually happens when an eldery person “dies in their sleep”?
In: 804
It’s kind of the same as dying “of natural causes”. It’s basically a nice way to say that someone was very old and had some standard medical conditions as can be expected for a person of that age. Stuff like heart attacks, stroke, organ failure, cancer, diabetes, infections all qualify. They all act on the body differently, but the common thread is that age reduces your body’s ability to fight back and after a point it is just considered inevitable.
