So, Mitch McConnell is 84…
This is at least the third fall McConnell has sustained since December 2024. He has had at least two petit mal seizures (also termed absence seizures) in public in that same period of time. I suspect that he had more than two as in the most public one caught on camera those closest to him seemed to recognize what was happening.
In the elderly (70 years or older), those who experience ground-level falls are much more likely to be severely injured and less likely to survive their injuries compared to those younger than 70 years. Elderly patients are three times as likely to die following a ground-level fall compared to their under-70 counterparts.
Now we don’t know any details as to “the fall” but assuming a ground level as the “best case scenario,” this is pretty dire news for the Republicans. Then one has to wonder about this “pneumonia” — did it pre-date the fall, was it hospital acquired, what about the 911 call to his residence “with CPR being rendered?”
Time to get Mitch into a skilled nursing facility I would say…
Bring on the Special Election!
