If the slippery tiles don't get you the wonky stairs will.

Her friends on FB are saying that although she was found on the bathroom floor, this fall wasn’t due to slippery tiles but to a bacterial infection caused by a parasite.

Sorry for the nice-seeming lady and embarrassing accident. The elderly need Vitamin D and calcium as well, esp. women.
Factors of the dangers os slipping:
- alcohol
- CNS depressants, like marijuana (indica-strain), opioids, codeine, valium, etc
- obesity / being overweight
- slippery tiles and a lack of non-slip strips (I have mine on my shoes)
- rainy season
- aged hubris (overconfidence with increasing age)
- lack of agility exercises
All, I feel, contribute to a needless and nasty end or visit to a hospital with big bills.

Not if there's a fire, not even if you hear the sound of a thud from my home and one week later there's a smell coming from there that can only be a decaying human body and you have to hold a hanky to your face because the stench is so thick that you think you're going to faint.
Even then, don't come knocking...Not for ANY reason.

Anyway, sounds like she was sick and passed out or something.

Ha, no, but I assume most readers can figure out they can dry the slippery surface, apply non-slip strips, and worry no more. I think like $7-$10 to do a few danger spots.
Also works for staircases, esp. metal outdoor ones in the rainy season.

Most old age pensioners with brains have sorted this problem out a long time ago. Nothing is better than a attractive bar-lady to join you in the shower to stop you slipping over.SmartAston Martin wrote: ↑Sun Feb 04, 2018 1:04 pm Ha, no, but I assume most readers can figure out they can dry the slippery surface, apply non-slip strips, and worry no more.

Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

I assumed everyone wore octopus sucker soled shoes in the bathroom.
