   Well, "Stable Condition" really just means you're not getting any worse at the   
   moment.  It doesn't really mean you're in good shape.   
      
   It's just like 2016 wants to kill all our childhood heroes and icons and is   
   trying to get as many last minute ticks off the checklist... but this one was   
   going too far.
