No particular reason for mentioning this, it just popped into my head

So a day late (and a dollar short, natch) I was responding to my little bro on some family history for a school project that my lovely niece is working on. I've mentioned before that my grandpa was in a wheelchair for about the last 10 years of his life. This was because he suffered for many years from a malady commonly called Burgher's Disease. The official ("Latin") name of this condition is:
Angiothrombosis Obliterans
I think the name says it all.
