I was reading online about the late Elvis Presley, who died aged only 42
Seems he had a spastic twisted bowel.

Parker, his agent, manager had him working on stage until the day he died

And they let him in the Army :-0

Call me Thomas but I find it hard to believe that.

Hmmm, his autopsy report is sealed until 2027, now that is cause for controversy and speculation.

I reckon he's still on the go - saw him in Porthcawl fairly recently

His last few weeks, indeed his last day, incredibly sad.
One of the pain killers he was being given was that commonly given to cancer suffers

I'm surprised he didn't take a year or more off to have this surgically corrected. :-(

:-D :-D :-D

Did you get his autograph Ann?


I doubted the twisted bowel because one of my earlier relatives died aged 2 with that 90 years ago.

I have been reading about Spastic Bowel though and it seems it could be IBS which thousands of people have.

For those still interested by then, wait until 1927, the date you say SC.

Why would an autopsy report on a celebrity be sealed so long ?

"Exactly how did Elvis Presley die? This controversy may one day be settled. Elvis' father Vernon Presley reportedly commissioned a private autopsy after the official report was completed. Exactly what those doctors found is still unknown. At Vernon Presley's request, the results will remain sealed until the year 2027. "
