Is it just me or is "Died Suddenly" being replaced with "battle with a short illness"?
🗣️ DISCUSSION 💬
Last 3 obits I've seen have had variations of "short illness" or "sudden illness" as they try to de-amplify "died suddenly."
Anyone else seeing this?
To be fair, she was 82 so it's not unheard of.
There used to generally be an explanation or cause of death, even at 82. Like pneumonia or a heart attack or fell down the stairs. “Brief” and “suddenly” are not causes of death.
