We had Franks services this last Saturday at my house, I don't go to funerals but I did see everyone before and after. It was good to see some people I havent seen in years-but of course it was under the worst of circumstances.
We have not heard from the medical examiner yet. The Dr he was training with who gave him CPR the moment Frank slouched down in the chair said that we might get a gross report this week, I think he said "gross"; meaning a preliminary report.
I did confirm that Frank was natural and has been for a long time because he was trying to have a baby. Years ago when we were both using we had a friend who had a baby that had some difficulties and we both said we would both be clean for a year before ever consider having a family. Based on that conversation(we spoke of it many times) I certain Frank wasnt using anything. Not even replacement therapy doses. Its possible he may have been using HCG and that is purely speculation on my part to keep his Test levels up because his levels were low after years of using, I have the same problem. Again this is speculation, We have not seen a "Tox Screen" yet. I know for a fact Frank didnt use any pain pills, coke, meth, etc.
I know he had high cholesterol for years that is exaggerated by using Test, which probably led him to have serious heart disease. I was told that he was having warning signs for over a month before he passed away. He was scheduled for a stress test for his heart on Thursday, he cancelled and went the race track and then passed away on Saturday. We dont know how bad his heart was, it could have been so bad that it was too late to repair with by-pass surgery. We hopefully will know more soon. I spoke with Frank 5-6 years ago about him looking into his heart like I did when I had my first heart problems, mine were stress related. Had Frank done something then he would be alive. When I found out he was having serious warning signs this past month, I was pissed at him. He was having pain going down his arm, he attributed that to a recent shoulder operation. He was also having heart burn and sharp pains near his diaphragm.
I will post more as I find out more, I lost a brother. I loved Frank more than I realized. I woke up one morning at 4am crying like a baby from some dream, I couldnt fall back to sleep. I knew I loved him but it took his passing to really make me aware how deeply I loved him. I spoke to Laura for hours, she is his wife. I had no idea he told her everything about me, he loved me equally. I have only one living blood relative, so losing someone close as Frank is devastating. The fact he was a successful BBer wasnt the basis of our friendship, we both loved to train, but I got side lined from that because of my heart then back problems, Frank never doubted me when I told him I wanted to train but couldnt, while others thought I just got lazy.
