HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. - A man who received a heart transplant 12 years ago and later married the donor's widow died the same way the donor did, authorities said: of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

No foul play was suspected in 69-year-old Sonny Graham's death at his Vidalia, Ga., home, investigators said. He was found Tuesday in a utility building in his backyard with a single shotgun wound to the throat, said Greg Harvey, a special agent with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.

It must have been a broken heart...

I feel so bad for that poor woman.. having to go through this, twice.

Tragic.

[Æthelflæd]

Weird how he married the guy's wife, too.

[WillowReflected]

did anyone stop to think that maybe its the wife who drives her men to suicide.. she probably felt accomplished being able to stop the same heart twice.

I dunno, I didn't click the link, but they do say that organs retain some kind of memory sometimes. LIke theres been cases of people getting an organ of a smoker and then going out and starting smoking down to the same brand of cigarrettes...Maybe it was something like that

[WitchJezebel]

That's pretty bizarre.

Thats terrible. I feel so sorry for that woman...

[la tortuga]

I feel horribly for the wife, to have to deal with that twice. It's almost like a cruel joke.

It must be a magick trick. It might even related to YOGA.

BAD MOJO, DON'T SWITCH OUT HEARTS.

[Caitlin.ann]

[Anchoresque]

I guess his heart really just wasn't in it.
