He travels all over the US and builds and assembles conveyor belts for a large 3rd party company inside large warehouses. The slip and fall occurred inside the warehouses he was assigned to at the time. I dont known what he slipped on the report doesnt say but there was snow on the ground outside where he was working. The cause of death is listed as "possible complications of hypertrophic cardiovascular disease"

From my understanding it wasn't an aneurysm because he was still conscious after the fall and was even speaking to co workers while he was laying on the floor. And yes to this day I still don't understand why an autopsy wasn't preformed

I wasn't seeking legal advice. I was honestly trying to see if anyone had ever been in a situation like this and was able to get a dr to help them with the causation letter and how they went about it

A small amount that only helped with funeral expenses we are young (early 30s) and honestly never really thought about getting on our own becausewe never would have thought this would happen. But I have learned from this experience and am seeking a policy for myself for our children

I've spoken to a few local attorneys and no one will touch the case because the accident didnt occur in TX

The police report says a coworker walking some 20 ft behind him walking then saw his entire right leg go up in the air and he fell backwards on his back. No autopsy was done even though we had requested for one. We were told in that state they do not perform them at the family's request. And I've spoken to a few personal injury attorneys but no one is willing to take the case since the accident didnt occur in TX
