    Default Harold Ramis

    He sadly passed away today from what was described an autoimmune inflammatory vasculitis. Now I must admit that worried me it sounds very much like what Wegeners is. Ok, he was 69 but that's not considered old these days is it?

    Hi again by the way.

    Hi again by the way.
    Here is the write-up from his hometown of Chicago. Harold Ramis dead at 69 - chicagotribune.com A Hollywood personality but apparently not an overly flamboyant one. The article doesn't mention what kind of vasculitis he had, but it could be Wegs.

    I hope 69 isn't considered old. I'm 67, and so far, so good.

    I just read that it was Lymphangitis - swelling of the lymphatic system.
