i now have the result from the coroner
the cause of death was a heart attack but he also had hardening of the arteries and cronic lung disiese and cronic obsrutive airways disiese i hope this gives some comfort to you all and the coroner believes he didnt suffer in any way he believes it was instant this helps settle my mind as i couldnt bare the thought he was suffering by himself
thankyou all for your kind words and thoughts which have been a great comfort to me
love you all xxxtinaxxx

Stay golden Tina, it must be hard at the moment, but you know you have 24/7 shoulders here at PSC if you need to chat and be distracted.

It helps sometimes, I know I've been there!

My only worry is that I have all of Splodge's symptoms, so I better start taking it easier and healthier... which knowing me will be next to impossible!

Thanks for the update, I'm sure the coroner was right about it being quick, a small mercy for Splodge in it's own way, but still as painful for those that are left behind.

God Bless,

Brian (AKA Wiz)

Thank you for letting us know, Tina. I do find comfort in the thought that Splodge's passing really was quick.

On the one hand, it doesn't matter "why" Splodge passed away, in the face of what a huge loss we all feel.

On the other hand, no matter what one's faith or lack thereof, most of us find Death scary. And the younger the person who passed away, the more mortal we all feel. Splodge's 52 years is pretty dang young.

Splodge often said not to be like him in his habits. If anyone makes healthier choices now: quitting smoking or eating healthier or cutting down on the booze or getting a little bit more exercise, I think he'd have been happy. Rock with a little moderation so we can rock on longer!

Thanks Tina. I'm glad he went quick.

It is very good to know that he didn't suffer. He was a big part of the heart of PSC.

Thank you so much for the update Tina. Knowing what happened makes it easier to absorb the loss.

As Wiz said we're all here for you 24/7. Heck I'll give you my phone number if you wanna literal ear.

Apologies Tina for calling you 'Trish' in my previous 'post',
I'll have to increase my Meds I think!

BTW: I'm really bad at names, and it used to get me into all sorts of trouble with a lot of girlfriends back in my bad old days!

Thanks Tina for the update. It's good to know that Splodge went quickly and quietly. I've seen people suffer for months through dying and it's really actually a blessing that Splodge went peacefully.

Again, my condolences to you and I hope you find comfort from all the members that remember Splodge and the effect he had in our lives.

Big hug, Tina. Thank you very much for the update. See you tomorrow.

Thanks Tina!

Thank you, Tina for the update! I'm sure it was somewhat comforting to you to know Splodge didn't suffer, although your loss will undoubtedly be long lasting if not eternal. I'm almost exactly Splodge's age. (About 2 months older than he.) And for me it hits home really hard. We never know how long we have in this world.
I'm sure Splodge is patiently waiting for you in the next! Good luck and God bless!
