wow i wouldnt have expected it to be an entire decade but yea its expected i think. Generally speaking, anyone with a serious illness, be it a brain illness, heart disease, bowel problems, muscular skeletal problems. Any illness is probably going to impact the longevity of a person, regardless of where it is located in the body.

sad tho :confused:
