This is something that I have been wondering about since I was a kid. Let me start off by saying that while I am looking somewhat for a diagnosis, it is more information than label I am trying to discover. This is in no means a prelude to anything medical or legal as it pertains to my family, friends, or loved ones.
A close male relative of mine died when I was a teen, between 10-15 years ago. Apparently he was worse and worse, not feeling well. One day he came in and his cheeks were black and he was very pale. The Drs said (as far as I can remember from the time) that it had something to do with the production of red blood cells... His body stopped making new ones. Within a short time after the initial hospital visit re the black cheeks, he was brought home to die. He did, a few days later.
I am trying to find the name of what he had, as it has been bothering me for a few years now. It seems like they called it malo-dysplasia?
