| Assisted Suicide? Assisted suicide? Talk about bizarre.
33 year old guy kills himself, but is a donor, so his heart goes to a 57 year old guy. The 57 year old starts writing letters to the donor's family. Eventually he falls in love with, and marries the other guys wife (who is 30 years younger than him!).
Now, 12 years after getting the younger guy's heart, and 4 years after marrying his wife, the older guy offs himself too, in the exact same manner as the first guy. 
Ever hear crazy stories about people getting organs from someone else and then strangely picking up some of their traits? 
Or is the woman the connection? 
Here is the story. Man with suicide victim's heart kills self - Life - MSNBC.com Quote:
Man with suicide victim's heart takes own life
He even married the donor's widow after the transplant 12 years ago
updated 5:15 p.m. CT, Sun., April. 6, 2008
HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. - A man who received a heart transplant 12 years ago and later married the donor's widow died the same way the donor did, authorities said: of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
No foul play was suspected in 69-year-old Sonny Graham's death at his Vidalia, Ga., home, investigators said. He was found Tuesday in a utility building in his backyard with a single shotgun wound to the throat, said Greg Harvey, a special agent with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.
Graham, who was director of the Heritage golf tournament at Sea Pines from 1979 to 1983, was on the verge of congestive heart failure in 1995 when he got a call that a heart was available in Charleston.
