They may not have a name but they know what’s happening with his body. How do they know he’s dying? What are the symptoms? Coughing blood is not a sign of immediate death. Where’s the blood coming from? Surely the writers have figured out that part of their story.


I had TB, you cough up blood. Doesn't mean you are going to die. Also, it is stupid they have not named what is wrong with him, is it cancer, COPD, parasite, etc?

Come to think of it, it may be a parasite infection caused by the imported silk. Not everyone would necessarily get the parasite. You can get a parasite through touching surfaces infected with parasites. Parasites can live weeks outside of a host body. They are microscopic and can go to your lungs, heart, brain, colon, etc. Older people are more prone to parasite infection because of lower immune system.


I looked it up. Paragonimus is a lung parasite mostly found in Asia. Long term infection mimics TB.


This is interesting. It is something that is often misdiagnosed and can mimic lung cancer.
