[R] Looking for data sets with unordered failure events of different types
Dear R community, Please let me know if there is an R data set with time to multiple outcomes (unordered failure events of different types). I am specifically looking for non-competing risks so that I can have observed times for both outcomes. Twin data or recurrent data will not work for me because I need two types of events for each subject. For example, a time-to-multiple injuries or time-to-multiple non-fatal disease outcomes would be useful. (Censoring is fine.) I tried most of the data sets in the packages that appear in Cran Task View: Survival Analysis to no avail. Thank you in advance for your suggestions. Ryung [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

It would seem to be a simple matter to take the examples of single outcome data and modify to create multiple outcome data. -- David Winsemius Alameda, CA, USA
