in Baltimore. They did all kinds of test yet they could not find nothing. So they had a medical board over at John Hopkins and they still did a bunch of test. They found a spot on his lower colon. That Friday back at the VA they were going to do an exploration surgery. But he hemorrhaged to death. They just couldn't stop the bleeding. He was 50 yrs old. It was so unexpected even by the doctors. They did the best they could.
