Chicken, for the love of God and TD, please take care of yourself!

Apparently it was genetic, when the Baylorfans.com founder was only 4, his dad also died of an aortic aneurysm.

Damn. That's young. It usually happens to people age 40 to 60. My dad somehow survived a big one a couple years ago. Spent three months in the hospital. It's pretty fatal.

Not to stray from the seriousness of the situation, because this is truly tragic, but please fix the ambiguity



a 4 year old having a kid would be an interesting story

So was he getting check ups on this and it didn't matter or what?

Seems to me if I have known genetic defect I'd be getting checked as often as possible. Very unfortunate if its one of those things where even the most heightened vigilance means nothing in practice.

OK I see what you are saying. Hopefully I fixed it to make it clearer.

Friend of mine from college died of that a year ago. He was only 41 years old - very sad.
