My father died in 1951, when he was 58 years old. His death certificate said that he died from cancer. Actually, he died from a gunshot wound. He was shot in the abdomen more than 40 years earlier, when he was a teenager. He grew up in the country where doctors were few and far between. Either he did not go to a doctor or went to a doctor, who did nothing about the bullet in his abdomen. When he was 57 years old, the bullet came out of the surface of his abdomen along with pus and blood. He then went to a doctor, who discovered that cancer had developed around the bullet. They operated on him to remove the cancer. However, a few months later, the doctors discovered that the cancer had metastasized to his liver and was untreatable. This was a rare case of someone dying from a gunshot wound more than 40 years after he was shot.
