## Resource

Death’s quiet knock: a haunting acronym, CHAPS, reveals the top killers of elders—cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, pneumonia, stroke. More than stats, it’s a shared grief map, echoing the raw anger and sorrow of losing loved ones. The word “chaps” itself—doorbell, clock chime, or even “to annoy”—becomes a poetic, painful metaphor for mortality’s arrival, and the rage that follows.
