not sure of why people say what they do. Maybe they're projecting their own fear or maybe they are genuinely concerned for our well being, but it happens all the time to all of us. Similar things, only usually not as dire, are described to pregnant women.
I don't know the why, but I usually respond with "I know a guy who died from falling down his stairs, but I still use the stairs in my house." My friend Glen has a more succinct response which also usually shuts the person up -- "Dead is dead, my friend."
