no lofty there's nothing wrong with a sense of humour - the man who died was my sisters friends husband - I know her well but only knew him slightly - still a shock the way it happened

My dad had one about 8 years ago. He went to the Drs with pain in the bladder area! Dr did various tests but nothing shown up so sent him for a scan which revealed an aortic aneurism. Turned out the aneurism was pushing all his organs downwards and the bladder had nowhere to go hence the pain at the bottom of the stomach.
