Re: 2022 RIP thread
Except "cardiac arrest" is not a cause of death.
I'd rather cuddle then have sex. If you're into grammar, you'll understand.
Re: 2022 RIP thread
According to one pathologist I used to work with, cardiac arrest is the ONLY cause of death. His position was that all other "causes of death" ultimately cause cardiac arrest.
I'm not the defending Jeopardy! champion. But I have played one on TV.

In many states, it specifically says on death certificate forms not to list a manner of dying such as cardiac arrest or respiratory failure for cause of death.AFRET CMS wrote: ↑Fri Jul 15, 2022 5:50 pmAccording to one pathologist I used to work with, cardiac arrest is the ONLY cause of death.

And now we learn that the cause of death is fall.
