It was understanable, but it kind of scared me at how young he was and how he died, as I was bigger then him at the time, he was like 6'2 210lbs MAX, and I was 6'3 300lbs+ so I started losing weight and shit, eating healthier all because of that. Then last year my uncle (his little brother) died at 39 of the exact same thing, found out its a genetic thing in my family, as my dad's older sister had a heart attack and open heart surgery because of the same reason, only thing is, she didn't die.

Finding out that it's genetic and I could possibly die too unless I did something, I ramped shit up, now I'm 6'3 260lbs, and working on losing more, getting myself into shape, and other stuff. I don't want to die in my 40's like my dad. believe me, I know what you mean.

I can lose weight and make myself healthier, but I can't fix how ugly I am unless I wanna spend money, and I don't care to spend money to make myself eye candy for others, I'm happy with how I look, but I agree, the weight thing I'm working on.

Edit: by the way, those pictures he linked where taken the day we buried my uncle.
