My father in law passed away last year and they never could figure out what happened to him. He was bleeding into, and out of all sorts of places. First he was being treated for kidney failure. When he was in the hospital on dialysis he burst an artery(?) in his kidney and almost died from the loss of blood. They had to replace 17 units. Later, they found blood in his spinal fluid. He was also bleeding from the rectum although when they did an endoscopy, they found no ulcers or other reasons he could have been bleeding. Finally, the thing that killed him was 2 brain hemmorages. What could this have been? The doctors are perplexed. Any ideas?
Please be kind, this is still very painful for me.

Not hemophelia. The issue wasn't that he couldn't STOP bleeding, it was that he was bleeding into all of these wierd places to begin with.
