He was also around a lot of solvents at that time without proper ventilation. I think that all are contributing to cirrhosis which can be caused by a myriad of factors. Still not a pretty thought but at 90, it is much easier to take than at 45.Sydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05642843245634635843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904990175885851041.post-88317207513840780212011-06-29T08:42:28.618-04:002011-06-29T08:42:28.618-04:00Such sad news.

Maybe on a holiday he would make a frozen drink. But during the war, one of his jobs was to delouse prisoners with DDT. Day in, day out. Plus, he was a farmer and handled pesticides frequently.<br />It all adds up. <br />I am so sorry to hear this. But still- 90?
