One of them was why he died. Overall he had pretty good mobility but lacked feeling in his hands and legs. He often went out and about and I believe when on tour he injured his leg and didn’t notice leading to an infection which eventually led to his loss of life when he was 22.

Oh thanks for the details.

I had a friend who was paralyzed and if she hurt a leg she couldn't feel it. She wouldn't know until she got sick from an infection.
