the mechanics of drinking yourself to death

504 views

You hear this sometimes “oh Jimmy? Yeah he drank himself to death after his wife died” But this actually possible? Does the body reach a point where it can’t process alcohol at a certain point?

My ex-fiance “drank himself to death” meaning he got acute pancreatitis from binge drinking, did not stop drinking to let his pancreas heal, and developed chronic alcoholic pancreatitis, which eventually sent him into multi-organ failure. Apparently (we were broken up and not in contact by this point) he spent the last few years of his life in and out of hospitals in severe pain (pancreatitis, acute or chronic, can be incredibly painful). He died at age 41.
