It is entirely possible that the hospital knows what happened and why the person died, and are just not sharing it (maybe to respect the family's privacy, for example).
Having said that, I do think you're right, the cause of death should absolutely be shared, otherwise it looks quite dodgy. If he was indeed discharged with "one of the cleanest bills of health I’ve had in a long time", then how could he die so shortly after, and why would there not be more discussion around the specifics?
- everforward 2y agoIt’s grim, but he had renal failure requiring an operation in 2018 and then back into renal failure causing congestive heart failure in 2023. It’s very possible for him to have the cleanest bill of health he’s had in 6 months or a couple of years, while still dying. I suspect that unwinding whether his death is related to the transplant or not is non-trivial. He had a few issues that would likely kill him soon. Figuring out which one did, and whether it was caused by the transplant, may be difficult.
