Subject: RE: BS: Free Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screening
My sister's husband collapsed and died while cleaning his teeth in the bathroom one morning. It was an aneurism in the brain, and he was just thirty six. There had been no warning, no illness, a terrible shock. Doctors said it was often hereditary, so his two little daughters were given scans, and fortunately they are clear. This was twenty years ago. There was no way at all that he could have been saved, it was instant.
