This has been discussed on the HAMB before. Also phosgene is what comes from burning R-12 we were told about guys getting sick or killed from smoking in a car with an AC leak when I was in airconditioning class at tech school.

Bill, we send our condolences. Do keep us informed about the situation and what the doctors' find concerning the cause. Though we all need to be reminded about chemical safety, none of us would ever think that it would take this drastic and this horrible of an event to keep us conscious about what these products are capable of if we are not careful. I, for one, am truly sorry.

Bill, Sorry to hear that your friend passed. Very unfortunate.
Maybe his passing and you bringing this to the attention of all of us that use chemicals and weld will save others.
I believe someone mentioned the use of the MSDS. Please always check the MSDS of the chemicals you use, most are available online.

Another metal coating that is very toxic when heated is Cadmium plating. It's that gold colored coating found on bolts etc.

I am a welder,and I have never used brake cleaner to prep for welding,however I have had a can of carb cleaner expode after coming in contact with sparks from welding.Keep any arosole cans away from the welding area at all times.Welding galvanized is also an easy way to mess up a good day.
