'But now that I've been given the go ahead, yesterday was a day that is obviously a day that will be remembered forever in our family because my father-in-law passed away unexpectedly after the show ended yesterday in a hospital here in Indianapolis, Indiana. He had been in the hospital fighting an infection, and on Friday, we were told that he was probably going to be discharged by Sunday. They had figured it out, and he was going to be okay. So we were all in high hopes with incredible optimism. And then yesterday, literally as the show is ending, my wife calls me and says that I have to get to the hospital because there had been an emergency.’ It's not clear how old Bob was and no obituary has been made publicly available at the time of publishing.

Brawley teen dies in PMH ER, falls ill at BUHS summer school
June 29, 2024
Brawley, CA — A 16-year-old female Brawley Union High School student died in Pioneers Memorial Healthcare District’s emergency room on Thursday afternoon, June 27, apparently brought to the hospital from her summer school physical education class. Much of the community — including parents of youths in the Brawley Union High School District — learned about the incident through the many social media posts, from MoveOn.org petitions and MealTrain.com virtual sign-up sheets to a number of posts expressing anger over her death or memorializing the young girl, whose identity and photograph was being widely shared. It’s unclear how solid the chain of events described in the MoveOn.org — and other similar postings around the web — are, but it appears the teen was made to run laps inside a hot gymnasium, a punishment of sorts for being late to class. At one point, despite the girl asking her teacher to stop running, she was told to continue and eventually went down and began to have seizures. “As of this point it is too early to determine a cause of death. From our investigation, it was determined that there was no known history of drug use or underlying medical conditions,” Imperial County Deputy Coroner Rogelio Tafoya said.

Another week, another tsunami of deaths. I am laboring with the everyday tasks of life. It’s impossible to navigate at times. My heart is heavy.
Now that the vaccinated seem to be at greater risk of dying than those that are not, will industries that are physically demanding and/or high risk take into account the vax status of candidates in the hiring process? Will the unvaxed be preferred? Will insurance companies be less or more inclined to cover the vaxed vs. the unvaxed? Will the vaccinated be treated like smokers?
