In response to the Ronnie Bates disapearance Wizard, my work has shown me medical history plays big role in an untimley demise. For example, did Mr Bates smoke? Did he have any family history of heart disease? Did he use drugs? Did he have hypertension? Elevated cholesterol?
When I worked in an interventional cardiac cath lab,I worked a case involving a 27 year old male who experienced chest pain while hiking. He stopped and called 911 on his cell phone. He was brought to the hospital by paramedics for an emergency angiogram. He was having an acute myocardial infarction...a heart attack.We did angioplasty and were able to open the blocked artery,stenting the occlusion. His only risk factor was a family history of heart disease.
What sparks my curiosity about the Bates case is at first,I am told that people believed that he staged his dissapearance. Please correct me if I am wrong,but I am told there were warrants for his arrest and he was in the area laying low. According to literature that came from William, he was aquainted with some of the folks hanging around the old Moss Ranch at the time. I am very interested in learning about the man's presence in the area prior to his dissapearance. We dont know what happened to him and I believe in keeping ALL options open. Perhaps someone can honestly fill me in on the facts.
