      Assuming she isn't dead already—yes, I am aware this is a strong load-bearing "assuming"—that's what this means. The last injury my Grandma received at 96, she couldn't grip onto the hand rail in the hallway of the ritzy old folks home, and her pelvis shattered into bone dust when she hit the ground. Once you start pushing into your 90's, your body starts actively trying to die.
