I read that Justice Scalia was an only child. What did his parents die of and at what age? He was heavier...diabetic? We dont know his medical of family history, but if he smoked, was (visibly) over weight; lead a sedentary lifestyle, and had the advanced age of 79 a MI (complete blockage of an artery) is not only plausible but eventually expected.

At the age of 53 my husband had a 100% blockage of his LAD. His symptoms? Profound and “different” nausea and a sore left shoulder (he was coaching our sons AllStar team and threw batting practice each night). He is a thin, non traditional Type 2’diabetic (strong family history). I should have called an ambulance, but he didn’t want that, (IF YOU THINK YOU SHOULD CALL AN AMBULANCE—CALL—IMMEDIATELY no matter what the patient says!) but I drove him to our local ER. As their ER entrance was under construction, I dropped him at the door (no parking was available) and he walked in on his own. In the less than 10 minutes it took for me to park & walk to the hospital, he collapsed and they called a Code Blue, rushed him to the Cath Lab and an incredibly skilled surgeon got all the clot (100% blockage) inserted a stent in his LAD (known as the “Widow Maker.”)

My point is, from the onset of my husbands symptoms, to his ER collapse was less than an hour. I truly believe the Lord was looking out for him as I recognized his coloring was “off” and “something” seemed wrong. Had he just “laid down” to rest, he would have died. This is what I can see happened to Justice Scalia, and I hope his family records (particularly his fathers age and cause of death) are researched and released to put an end to conspiracy theories.

“from the onset of my husbands symptoms, to his ER collapse was less than an hour”

If you don’t mind my asking, what was your husband doing that day before symptoms?

I had a discussion w/my doc once concerning symptoms, etc.. He had indicated that for this type of case, there is typically some form of exertion that the patient performs before experiencing the symptoms. It doesn’t happen when you’re just sitting there.
