Diagnosed with tuberculosis as a child, he was sent to a clinic in Hamilton for a year for treatment. He also had to attend a residential school in Churchill. Later in life, Michael became homeless, due to a long-term problem with alcoholism. He died from internal bleeding a week after surgery at St. Michael Hospital. His sister Naulaq blamed decades of alcohol abuse for his death.
