Since the Shackleton expedition and that famous navigator Frank Worsley have been discussed frequently here, I thought some of you might want to read about the death of Henry Worsley who fell ill just short of his goal of crossing Antarctica solo and died after being airlifted to Chile for treatment. This Worsley is described as a "distant relative" of Frank Worsley --not much more than having the same surname. Here's bbc.com's article.
