I found this on wikipedia; I thought it'd explain the whole issue;
On March 27, 1987, Troughton was a guest at the Magnum Opus Con II science fiction convention in Columbus, Georgia. Some attendees later said that Troughton looked clearly unwell at the time, although he appeared to be in good spirits throughout the day's panels and was looking forward to a belated birthday celebration which was planned for the coming Saturday evening as well as a screening of the Doctor Who story The Dominators, which Troughton had requested personally, on the Saturday afternoon.
Troughton suffered a final, fatal, heart attack at 7:25 AM the next day (March 28, 1987) just after he had ordered his breakfast from the hotel staff. According to the paramedics who were called, Troughton had died before he had fallen back onto his bed. He was 67 years old.
A great loss to the world and the acing profession, such a shame that like a fair few great people he died at what some would consider a relatively early age.

He died not long after his birthday, a fine present indeed(!) Well what does one expect if one ignores their doctors' warnings.

This time the meaning of the story is always do as your doctor says well almost always.

I believe the first 3 Doctors have all passed on.
