Thank you for your edit; it has been reverted because the death certificate says "narcotising" per the cited source. RadioKirk (u|t|c)  14:00, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I am a board certified anatomic and clinical pathologist (MD).
 * "narcotising" means 1a: to treat with or subject to a narcotic, 1b: to put into narcosis, 2: to soothe to unconsciousness or unawareness.
 * Necrotizing is a proper medical term describing necrosis of the specified tissue. "narcotising" is either a typographical error or misreading a handwritten report or both. I have not seen the death certificate.  However, I know from my extensive experiences in autopsies and completing death certificates that the proper term must be Necrotizing .

 * As you know, the "threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth" but, every now and then, an otherwise reliable source gets the facts wrong. Well done in getting the source fixed, and the correct information here. Thanks again. :) RadioKirk (u|t|c)  18:19, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
