Sumpter,
Sorry to hear of your brothers passing on.
My brother passed on about 4 years ago and I still sometimes will see or read something and get the urge to call him up then I remember. He was 56 and passed away from multiple blood clots in lungs and legs, when they dissolved they had tore up his arteries, and the doctor could not patch him up quick enough, and he went into cardiac arrest on the surgery table. The condition is hereditary, one of my sisters has the same condition and she has two sons not sure if they have been tested, I do not have the gene and my other sister also does not.
