Hmmm...he's 51 and had a stroke? A little young, I'd suspect an underlying medical condition....one which probably disqualified him from organ donation.

Don't these idiots know men who have had sex with other men during the past five years can't donate blood, either? It's not all about HIM!!!

Yep, I went to the UK during the mad cow problem years and they do not take my blood either.

Possibly...but then consider that Tedy Bruschi of the New England Patriots, was only 27 when he had a stroke. And he is the canonical picture of health in every respect.

Having a stroke typically means untreated high blood pressure and other conditions involving blood clots.
