I am already 40. When Mohsin passed away yesterday, he was only 41. But does age matter? My MCKK batchmate, Johan Ismail or fondly known amongst us then as “Mawell” died three years ago of a massive heart attack when I was away in Geneva, Switzerland attending a trade show.. He was 37.
A member of Mohsin’s batch, Anis, who was there when Mohsin’s body was brought to the Serdang Hospital for a post-mortem around 2pm wrote:
Speaking on behalf of Crotalus 78-82 (his batch), the body arrived at around 2 at Hospital Serdang. Serene look on his face.
Post mortem was conducted by our very own Dr. Karim (budak kolek grad 1966 kot). Was about to negotiate for external post mortem but aruah’s case is classified as a high profile case, and he had to perform internal post mortem as well.
Post mortem findings basically reveals a bad and enlarged heart with pin point blockage of coronary artery(ies?). Calcification noted at the vessels. The rush to check in might have precipitated the ischaemic heart attack. (Was told by the accompanying sergeant that he was about to check in, suddenly became dizzy and fainted back first!)
So, may I suggest to those friends of mine, me included, especially those who smoke on a regular basis, aged 30 years and above, to just spend a day with your heart specialist and have yourself checked out?
Time I do that again.
