Hey sleazy, i didn't realize your grandmother died! I did not see it in the original post!

Sorry for your loss!

All thing being equal the odds of someone dying one month before or after Christmas is 1 in 6 deaths. Just like it is durring any other 2 month stretch durring the year.

Stress kills.

Really very sorry to hear that Sleazy.

I was told that cold weather causes some people to be pushed over the edge. When I was planning the stuff for Marc's funeral I was told it would be hard to get a date because it was the busy season.

Maybe they only die for people that make rude comments about ther people's daughters..

Maybe she heard that comment you made

Sorry to hear....

Sorry for your loss Sleazy. I'm sure you're missing her a lot right now.

Sorry to hear of your loss.

My grandfather also died on Christmas day....He was the only proper male role model i had growing up. He was a great man.

I was a life insurance broker for 7 years, i've sceen morbitity tables dating back 100 years - the highest likly time for an older person to die if right after a major holiday like christmas. It has no effect on the mortality of people under 45 though.

my grandmother died just today, found out this morning.

*hugs* my grandma died earlier this year, i'm sorry for your loss.

i think the holiday mortality rate has something to do with additional accidents/suicide due to alcohol/depression around that time. also, in older people, perhaps having made it through to the end of another year leaves them with a sense that it's 'okay' to carry on to whatever next.

*much love to you*
