The day before his death, on the social network
“I had a health problem last night [ le 4 décembre]but luckily it wasn’t a heart attack, he wrote. I’m not sure what it was because once they made sure I wasn’t dying I was thrown into the waiting room and six hours later I I said “f*ck it” and went home.”
“This is the health care system in Canada, my friends. The best in the world,” he added.
Its symptoms
Adam Burgoyne did not know the cause of his discomfort. In a comment under the post, he did not identify the hospital.
“I didn’t panic at all,” he said. It was physical. I had pain on the left side of my chest, nausea and clammy skin. I tried to breathe a little and see what happened, but it started to get worse, so I went to the emergency room.”
“They didn’t even take a blood test or an X-ray,” said Adam Burgoyne. I suppose it could have happened if I had been willing to wait another 18 hours.”
He said he slept most of the day the day after his visit to the hospital. According to the obituary, his death occurred suddenly.
