Could alcoholism contribute to my son's death of an inlarged heart?


Posted by Sophia

My son died in June of 2009.  He was 39 years old. He died in his sleep.  The coroner wrote that he died of an inlarged heart. He had been an alcoholic for 10 years.  He had a poor diet and did not see a doctor for regular check ups.  The only indication that we had something was  more wrong than his alcoholism, 2 weeks sober, was that he was sleeping alot.  He also snored,  and had symtoms of  sleep apthea.
