Penn State football was Joe Paterno’s life. Now, shortly after he was fired from the scandal-plagued program, he died. He had a treatable form of cancer, but it killed him at age 85.
Do you think the timing was coincidental, the cancer being the sole physical reason why he died, or can mental trauma be a cause of death? Do you know any other examples of that?
