Dying from complications related to Crohn’s is not out of the question, especially in places that don’t always have the best health care.

But will a Canadian that’s unfamiliar with the country be able to find it?

(Serious question, I have no idea what the answer is).

It's really easy to find hospitals in India, just google 'hospitals around me' or use the phone number '102' to call an ambulance from any place. Usually, doctors are very comfortable talking in English. I'm from India and most of my conversations with doctors happen in English.

Extremely easy.

I've been unwell in India, and had unwell children there. India probably sucks if you have no money, but if you have a white face or other sign of affluence, then getting to a physician or hospital is no problem at all, and the care is good.

This is true in most of the world, not just India :P

It's also more likely to die from complications of, say, surgery for Crohn's. So you might make a will beforehand (he made a will 2 weeks prior to dying). For the same reason, you might look into key escrow or similar (he clearly did not).

I'm sure there's good health care there for people who can afford it
