[quote=Anonymous]Alcoholics die basically of liver failure. I understand that dying of liver failure is a long, drawn out, painful process. Don't overdose on Tylenol because it's similar. In liver failure, the liver is no longer able to process bilirubin. Usually it processes it and it goes out in your poop. But instead it goes into the skin and they turn yellow. In severe cases I've seen eyelids and even tears stained with bilirubin. Additionally clotting factors are processed in the liver so when these processes are disturbed, they start bleeding/bruising easily. The brain is also affected so many seem to have altered mental status. And it's painful. Overall it's a horrible way to die so please take care of your liver.[/quote]
