Fatal accidents and timing/coincidence kind of fascinate me. A few years ago two high school kids were killed on Prom night in our county.
They were driving on country roads from one of their houses to the other so that the girl's mom could take pictures of them before they went to Prom. This was at like 5pm or something. The young man was driving and blew through a stop sign and got side swiped killing them both. It was a high speed accident.
What if the mom had just taken a few more pictures? What if she would have hugged him before he left just a few seconds longer?
That stuff would drive me insane and I hope I never have to deal with it.Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

Guy I went to school with had the same thing happen. Fell off his camper while cleaning it and was cleared by doctors. Few weeks later he collapsed and never woke up.Head injuries aren’t to be messed with so if you have one or you roll your eyes when your kid has to do a concussion test for something seemingly minor keep this kinda stuff in mind.0

so he had an enlarged heart, 95% blocked, some anti-anxiety meds in his system, but no booze or illegal drugs, and covid positive (which he stated in December).Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall0

If I cross the street and a car barely misses me I will remember that. And be stressed/anxious about it.Post edited by Gern Blansten onRemember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

Wow, so the injury was similar to being hit with a bat or a 20-30 foot fall.
Crazy situation. We may never know what happened (end of day not really our business anyway).0 -
I’m reading a lot of surprising behavior is pretty common with deaths like this. Often the victim doesn’t even remember the fall.
the baseball bat/30’ fall stuff didn’t come from a doctor that actually examined him.0 -
I remember as a kid, that rule #1 if someone got a concussion was don't let the person go to sleep. Keep them awake. If you're the one with the concussion don't sleep. Don't really now the science behind it, but I remember that be important as a child of the 80s.
