    Yes, but also liver and kidney. They attributed the bruising on his hands to frequent hand shaking or aspirin use. Aspirin use is pretty hard on the liver. If we could see his natural skin color, jaundice could narrow it down to liver failure.

    Look, I know the world will be a better place without this clown, but this just isn't how health risk works. Most smokers don't get lung cancer. Most drinkers don't get liver disease. Most people who die young don't have any especially unhealthy habits. Life just isn't fair in this way and pretending it is denigrates a lot of good people who are suffering.
