Causes of death
« on: Friday 14 July 23 14:31 BST (UK) »
I have attached a clip from the death register of a cousin but I cannot make out a couple of words.
I have Carcinoma of ?, Acute Intestinal Obstruction & Cardio vascular ?
Try as I may I can't get those 2 words so any suggestions would be much appreciated.

I'm embarrassed I didn't get 'degeneration' but the 'Caecum' is a new one on me.

Many thanks for taking the time - it's much appreciated.

Then you haven’t been unlucky enough to have suffered from appendicitis, otherwise you would be at one with that part of your anatomy.

No, I'm glad to say I haven't! Not the best way to learn all those causes of death!
