Doing that with arthritis and keeping her wedding ring on. Her late husband Mark must be watching with pride, admiration, and a little bit of lust.

I would like to know what pain killers she is using. Old age hurts like mad.

I would like to know who's was there to catch her. Falls from that hight are no joke when you are that age.

Falls from any height really. Even from sitting. It's easily one of the biggest causes of health issues leading to death. A broken bone for a normal person usually isn't life threatening, but for the elderly it can easily be a death sentence.
