Question: What kills a seemingly healthy 22 year old with no warning?
Answer: Wilson's Disease.

If you're a reader from Minnesota, you may have noticed a story in the Star Tribune today about my friend and colleague who passed away just after Thanksgiving. Apparently he had a rare disorder that causes copper to build up in the organs, leading to organ failure.

Definitely something I've not heard of before.

I'm glad they found out what it was. Maybe by sharing the information, others can be saved...
