What in the world does “no significant trauma” mean??? No trauma I would understand. Does this mean there was some kind of trauma somewhere? Heart failure means your heart stopped beating. Why? Dying of Natural causes means no one killed him. Hard to fathom a heart just stops beating in a guy who was walking home after a glass of wine at a local pub.

Huh? Have you not heard of myocardial infarction? It’s one of the biggest causes of death.

Let Andrew RIP and let’s carry on his work.

Heart failure is gradual; myocardial infarction is sudden.

It’s sort of strange phrasing - someone dying of heart failure should feel sick enough - very weak, unable to breath - that he would call for help.

A sudden, massive MI - oxygen-starved heart stops in seconds or minutes - is not usually called “heart failure.”

He may have had trauma from falling or from attempts to revive him.
