Just heard that our favorite pirate has a torn aortic valve. It’s extremely serious and dire.


There are unofficial reports that he had an aortic valve problem that led to a dissection (rupture of the aorta, right above the aortic valve). This may or may not be correct, but...

This is the condition I had before surgery, and was very close myself to an event. This hits me sort of hard because it's tough, but fixable. I now have a 5" chunk of polyester tubing sewn to the top of my heart. The guy who did my surgery had put NBA players back on the court.

RIP, Coach.

It’s possible (probable even) that there’s an error in this game of telephone and Leach had an aortic dissection, which would absolutely result in the rapid decline we saw.

He fits the profile of risk factors as well.
