The blockage usually is caused by atherosclerosis, the build-up of plaque in the artery walls, and/or by a blood clot in a coronary artery.Sometimes, a healthy or atherosclerotic coronary artery has a spasm and the blood flow to part of the heart decreases or stops.he blockage usually is caused by atherosclerosis, the build-up of plaque in the artery walls, and/or by a blood clot in a coronary artery.

Federal Student Loans. If the student loan is a federally backed education loan, a spouse is safe from repayment liability. According to the U.S. Department of Education, if the borrower of a federal student loan dies, the loan is automatically canceled and the debt is discharged by the government.
If you fail to meet the terms of your loan and make your scheduled payments, your loan will eventually go into default. After you are 270 days delinquent, your lender can file a claim with the guarantor of your student loan(s). This means that the guarantor will pay the money you owe to your lender. The guarantor will then be responsible for collecting your loan on behalf of the federal government through a variety of options.
