Wow Rick I feel for you. We lost someone great that day. I often wonder if Lorne and Victors deaths had something to do with Mike getting sick. Bless you and thank you for all the Bonanza info. Best show ever.

You’re welcome, Kathy. I don’t think the losses of them affected Mike in that way. You have to remember he drank a lot of alcohol and smoked too much. Although he quit smoking a few years before, he still drank daily. That was what he blamed it on. Alcohol will cause inflammation of the tissues which can lead to cancer. Tobacco can, too. His lungs pulled up congested, but normal in an x-ray the doctor took in June of 1989, right after Victor died that year. He was scared and had them checked. He was fine. Too much drinking caused it in 1991.

Rick
