I have tried all the usual websites (although for some reason I can't log on to the Paul Smith one), but would be grateful if someone might be able to help me with interpreting a difficult word please? My GG grandfather's causes of death are: 1. Chronic Interstitial Nephitis 2. Cardiac (and the following is the word I'm struggling with) Degeneration? Desperation? Despueration? 3. Syncope Thanks in anticipation edward Limpsfield, Surrey Using Norton SystemWorks
