I don't know about his final days, but not too long ago some friends of his went by his trailer and found him unable to get out of bed, lying in his urine, not having had food or any care for a few days. The friends apparently alerted MUM who started some sort of care for him prior to his dying. That's what I've been told. Any other info on this? It's becoming a more common problem within the mov't. There's apparently a recert gov. in the field who's in the hospital with cancer with no family or friends there to help take care of her. My wife has taken care of a couple MDs who got cancer and had to leave the MD course. IT's a huge hassle as they tend to have poor relations if any with their biological family, no money and no insurance.
