He's only a lad, Fothers. I don't think his trunnions have descended yet.
My old mum had an aortic aneurism.......if it leaks, you've got 24 hrs. If it bursts....a minute or two. They won't operate on the old folk. Hers leaked at 82, 15 yrs ago. I got her into hospital and we knew the worst...she didn't, but she asked if it was the end. I told her she'd got a chest infection and was going on a drip. It was actually morphine .
We came home during this for a freshen up, only 5 minutes away, and as I walked in the door the ward rang to say she had gone.
I'm convinced they upped the dose when we were out of the way..........I have no complaints if they did. She just slept herself away..nice !
I was so pleased that she'd gone peacefully and with dignity.
Lifelong smoker, BTW.
However, dying is the last thing I intend to do !
