You have to assume the worst. Just from this alone, significant damage is an obvious conclusion, just from the uncertainty of what was or was not taken.

For a lot of people that die natural deaths they could have lived longer if they had kept fit. It just gets really hard to either do or justify when everything hurts and gets harder to do year over year.

Catch them in one lie, and you get off scot free. Source: been dealing with the "justice" system since I was 17, most recently last year where I recorded an agent of the court committing perjury.
