Yeah...but the coroners office here in Georgia is backlogged waiting on toxicology results from the state crime lab.

Im guessing either an anuerism. Appendix. or menningitis. His mother got menningitis as a toddler after we had all been at the lake.

Prayers for your family. Yes, I would wonder about appendicitis. I have had a cousin and a best friend who lost boys this age. Just heartbreaking.

#6. I had the same symptom in my stomach which I took as food poisoning. I died about 45 minutes later of cardiac arrest, cause still unknown.

Fortunately I had my wife call my police officer son to pick me up at my office, about 7 blocks from his duty post, and take me to the hospital where all my doctors worked.

I was unconscious as soon as I got in his patrol car and died at the feet of the emergency room doctor about 30 minutes later. Fortunately he was warned about my arrival and had a crash cart ready and revived my heart after 2 sets of shocks and oxygen.

Took me 6 days to come out of two commas, pneumonia and brain seizures. I was lucky. I beat the Deadpool odds but to this day my doctors don’t know what caused my heart to stop. They suspect some kind of salt chemical imbalance.

I’m sorry this young man didn’t make it. Too young to go. Prayers to his family.

So far, stomach pain after a hard session of basketball seems to be the only clue. An aortic aneurysm is plausible, as is severe intestinal torsion. Such a tragic loss for the family.
