Would My Father Have Felt Any Pain ?
My father died suddenly(literally just fell down at work) and it was discovered at autopsy(he was only 42) that he had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy . It was obviously a real shock, do you think that he would have been in pain when he died ?

No - this is the wonderful thing about instant deaths. They didn't even know what hit them - the death is quick and painless. I am so sorry for your loss.
