Do you know the medical term for what he had? Was it one of these? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_arteriovenous_malformation https://en.m.wikipedia.

  Could have been; but I don't recall what it was even if i did hear it. He explained it to me as "they said i had a time bomb that hadn't gone off yet in my skull" but he wasn't convinced until they scared his wife too. My impression was that the seriousness of the condition was debatable, that was the feeling i got from him. What he might've been told by his doctors i dunno.

    Since we've accepted to let healthcare be a business, we can only blame the logical consequence of that system, health professionals are running a business, they will scare off the siblings son and grand kids of a senile elderly if they can bank 20k for some unnecessary surgery. I imagine someone will be jumping on the occasion to point out that not all car dealers are crooks, but the rising number of anecdotes is concerning.

    it's a nice, fat, and juicy billable event, of course it was a "time bomb".
