Did anyone get the time of death right ? I think a few were calling it around that time. Mind you, it was fairly obvious considering, notes were being passed to party leaders in the house, at the time.

I’m not the one with a problem with me.No you'll have bored them to death long before then.
Why you keep quoting me and telling me I’m so bad seems a little weird, but it’s a free country. You have the right to be a grumpy old man.

Indeed. It just means the patient has died before they’ve knew the cause, but has been seen by a doctor they have known for a period of time and haven’t done a post mortem.Old age is an acceptable cause of death on death certificates, providing some conditions are met.

If you were dealing with diagnosed issues it may be. If you werent, they wouldnt be subject to a post mortem and would be recorded as death through old ageNo it wouldn’t. It would be cancer/Covid/heart failure/brain aneurism etc

It still doesn’t mean you died of old age, it means a doctor can write it on a death certificate.
Well it may be that the doctor thought that old age was the prime cause of death.Indeed. It just means the patient has died before they’ve knew the cause, but has been seen by a doctor they have known for a period of time and haven’t done a post mortem.
The most minor perturbations that would not trouble a healthy thirty year old can be fatal for someone in their 90's. The prime cause of death is age rather than the minor perturbation.

With respect, no one knows as they’ve put the blanket old age on the certificate.Well it may be that the doctor thought that old age was the prime cause of death.

Even if nothing else was wrong with her, she died of heart failure.
I'm not saying anyone knows.With respect, no one knows as they’ve put the blanket old age on the certificate.

I'm saying that may have been what her attending doctor thought.
It may not.
Heart failure is a specific medical diagnosis which she may well not have had. Obviously her heart would have ceased to beat at death but that is not an indication of heart failure.
