his brother has had a stroke too. it runs in the family. high chloresterol leading to cardiovascular issues are very prevalent among sinkie genes of southern chink stock. if sinkie men of such stock can live till 69, they are considered very lucky. at around 55-56, to be able to withdraw a tidy sum from cpf and see a million dollar salary for a couple of years, he should be moderately lucky. if i were him i would ask love ones to pull the plug.
