Doubt it. But maybe he just took a bunch of sleeping pills or something. Dunno how any of this works or if the police would be forced to investigate or whatever. Maybe it's just one of those stories where you know you're dying but you're hanging on to finish something and once that's done you let go and die finally. Could be that as well.. or it's all just a coincidence, why not. But my version seems more Ozzy.
My wife worked in an assisted living facility for a while and this very much is a thing. Who knows what the mechanism is, but dying folks might hold on for as much as multiple days while at the brink of death until a specific relative can get there. I could absolutely see if he just let go after getting his affairs in order following the tour
Yeah, heard similar stories from family members. Has to be something to it.
Maybe he travelled to a country that does it. I don't know.
