<<My father in law drank about that much. He was about 56 when he died of cirrhosis of the liver. We don't know exactly what happened, someone found him on the side of the road he used to walk across to get to the convenience store, and he was hemorrhaging into his abdominal cavity. He never regained consciousness.>> Words can't express how much I want to thank you for telling me that especially now that I'm 51 and still have plans. I DO get a liver function test every year and it's still normal, thank God and good genes. All in all, not the worst way to go. I knew a lady who was the head of a nursing school and had a wino blow the arteries in his throat when she was treating him. She had on new whites to receive an award.........

Ok, second response. My cousin married a girl who was really nice. Strong faith, never smoked, drank five glasses of wine a year. Swam daily and was a lifeguard part time and taught aerobics. Ate damn little meat. Pretty, tall and slender with a personality that would have charmed Hitler into loving his fellow man. Family history of really being healthy. She died at 28 from cancer. The last 6 months of her life they had to knock her out to turn her over because of the pain. We do diet and exersize and take antioxidents and mostly they do help. But when the fickle finger of fate wants to fuck you there's not a thing you can do.
