You need to include more details in your question, since I'm not sure what you're talking about (someone who's biologically immortal?). You also need to add a sample sentence because that is also required of all [Single-Word-Requests] .

I think it means, seriously, that some people just get hit with multiple diseases, like me, and others just sail through life, without any problems, and live to a ripe old age. I don’t think that it really takes too much thought. It means just what it sounds like. I also am sorry if others don’t agree, but through 20 years of severe and constant suffering, I believe that I’ve earned the right to my opinion ... it’s easy to question what it means, but coming from myself and others who suffer along with me, we’re looking at the question from a perspective, born from experience ... oh, and I think that the word that describes it, is “Lucky” as illnesses and diseases do not discriminate ... I think it’s pretty much the hand that you’re dealt in life ... 🥴
