He was diabetic for close to 20 years and did not take care of himself. He had had his left leg amputated. He had sleep apneia. He had heart problems, and if I understand it correctly, one side of his heart pumped much less than the other, leading to an excess fluid buildup in his body. He was in dialysis to remove to excess fluid four days a week, but his weight could fluctuate by 100 lbs. within a month. This was also causing his kidneys to fail. He had a bad cold. From what his doctor and the police told me, it looked like he got up that morning and was getting dressed. He apparently decided to take a nap before putting on his shirt and never woke up. His friend found him when he stopped by to pick him up for dialysis. I'm just glad he didn't die in the hospital. He would have hated that.
