before dying

Published

ok this may sound like a weird question but i have been asking myself for almost 3 years. My brother passed away from t-cell lymphoma acute leukemia. Bone marrow transplant didnt work. I gave him mine, worked for 66 days but thecancer was stronger than both of us. What really killed him was renal failure due a tumor that grew between his kidneys and sqeezed them. So that night we knew he didnt have much left in him. He was all bloated and dialysis wasnt working. Slowly blood started coming out of his nose and then right before he flat-lined he threw up blood. can some one tell me y? Thank you very much.

**boy this was kinda hard to write but i gotta ask if i wanna know right?!?!

Bumping a thread is simply replying to it to keep it freshly at the top of the list. This is helpful for a question that may go unanswered for a short bit but may be considered important enough to keep up top. I think this is one of those questions :)

oh btw.... bump

I don't have an answer to your question, but I wanted to tell you that I am sorry you lost a brother.

Perhaps the circulatory system went haywire. That's my best guess.

We are not permitted to diagnose conditions here on this board, but maybe his doctor or your own physician can offer you an explanation.

Best wishes to you, and sincerest condolences on the loss of your brother.

oh i wasnt expecting a diagnosis at all. Its just something that i had been wondering. I asked a doctor before and they cant tell me anything unless they see a hart. i guess the same goes for everyone else right? i was just asking i guess out of luck. but its ok . thanks you
