Nascar fans- Kyle Busch passes at 41

A client’s 16 year old got a bad cold and it got into his heart in little less then a week. The virus basically killed his heart and was in children’s for 3 months, nearly died 4 times. Had a pace pacemaker and a had to wear a vest with a battery that went into his heart. His heart was functioning at 15%. Went from playing ice hockey and living a vibrant life to needing a heart transplant at 17 bc of a cold.

My reading of the tea leaves is that he died with a sinus infection not from a sinus infection. I’m expecting to find out that a pulmonary embolism or something adjacent to that was the cause of the tragedy.

I work in the heart of Nascar land. Half of the buildings in the industrial park are for Nascar. I work with guys who personally knew Kyle Bush. They’ve been talking about it all day. Flags are at half staff.

Sucks dudes my age as well.

Coughing up blood, with shortness of breath. Sounds like a respiratory condition as well.

I’m no racing fan, but this is really sad. 41 is too young. RIP Mr. Busch.

That’s just awful.

If you are coughing up blood, please go to the hospital ASAP. Don’t worry about your schedule. Take care of yourself.

Yep, as we’ve stressed here time and again, take care of your health. It doesn’t make you less of a man to see a doctor. It actually makes you more of a man because you’re smart enough to take care of your body and to know when you need help.

That makes sense. Same as if your shiting blood. But with that said family Dr’s are wrong a ton, and I dont trust them at all. From me almost dieing in 2009 to my wife complaining about her neck. Too them giving my dad so many drugs, that he became a drug user. 2026 and they couldn’t tell if my wife had cancer unless she had them removed , so they can actually could tell if she did. Sorry for the rant, this post isn’t about what you said.
