How did I get here. How did YOU GET HERE. THAT Deborah Cox song, that's the song I sing every time I look in the mirror and I see this old face staring back at me that I don't recognize.But if I'm honest, it wasn't the old face staring back from the mirror that first gave me an indication that I was getting old.

Imagine an alien landed on Earth in the year 1900 and she decided to survey the anatomy of human death.How we die and by what.
