We just got news that our cousin, who was 26, dropped to the floor at work and could not be revived. They do not know what happened yet. Please keep her parents and family in your thoughts.....:-1

I am so sorry Mom. All parents say it is against nature to survive your children. I will keep them in my thoughts.

I really don't understand--the coroner did a preliminary autopsy and found NOTHING except that her kidney looked strange...nothing major. They are doing a tox. screen and it of course will be a couple weeks before it comes back. They just can not find anything...It was a mess.. her mom doesn't like the fiancÃƒ© - and the mom and dad are divorced and were arguing about the arrangments... I called my sisters and brothers and said - IF ANY OF YOU FIGHT..if something happens to me- I WILL HAUNT you FOREVER! Times like these you need your family and close friends...not everyone fighting...Sad...Thanks again for your prayers...

Her kidney looked strange??? There are several diseases that cause kidney failure. The ones that take someone at that age are usually inherited but at this point in the family tree you might not know it. There would have been people who died unexpectedly in their 30's. It usually takes 2 recessive genes passed on to the child from the parents to cause this. If the kidney looked strange --- there are sooo many functions the kidney does - it is an incredible organ but once it goes down there is very little that can be done besides dialysis and that has to be caught early.

As far as you are concerned Mom - you are the fighter FROM HELL - A NEVER SAY DIE WOMAN - and I will talk about your strength to cancer victims for the rest of my life. Your legacy will always live.

You just don't drop dead from kidney failure though...I'm walking proof of that. It's like being slowly poisioned. Kidney failure can cause a heart attack, but the coroner would have found evidence of that. Such a scary and horrible thing to happen to your family, mom. I'm sorry this had to happen to you guys and I really hope they can find out what happened to her so that you guys can have closure. You're all in my prayers.

Funeral was today- Chad was a pallbearer and it was of course very sad...still no news on why or how...just that the EMT's said that she was revived and did try to talk to them before she died..I feel so sorry for her mom. Her step-dad did a toast at the luncheon and asked everybody to go home and have a Raspberry Fizz in her honor..It was BIG BIG funeral- but as her mom said- she is glad everything is over now..They are waiting a couple weeks for a tox. result and I sure hope there is something, even if it is something they don't want to know about--ex;drugs..at least her little sisters would not have to worry about it and if it would happen to them..Thanks again for all your prayers...and good thoughts...we really appreciate it..:-4
