I bet they are.

You seem like you would be a great father.

After several hundred posts you get a feel for a person :)

Thanks, brother :^)

They’re grown (27 and 24), but they’re still my “kids”. I’d have had ten if we could have.

27 and 24 is kids with their whole lives ahead of them :)

I have 30 year old nephews and I tell them they’re babies :)

I don’t even REMEMBER 20 years ago..

And a lifetime happened in those 20 years.

I didn’t know 50 was a real number. Maybe for OTHER people but not me :)

I was wrong!

I wish them the very best.

Beautiful young lady, so sad.

RIP

I had a close friend die at 16 from an undiagnosed heart defect - one that kills countless athletes suddenly and unexpectedly when they are in the prime of health and fell great.

He had HCM.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). In this usually inherited condition, the walls of the heart muscle thicken. The thickened muscle can disrupt the heart’s electrical system, leading to fast or irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias), which can lead to sudden cardiac death.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, although not usually fatal, is the most common cause of heart-related sudden death in people under 30. It’s the most common identifiable cause of sudden death in athletes. HCM often goes undetected.

HCM is most often diagnosed in the young during an autopsy from what I understand.

No drugs are involved, these kids are usually dedicated athletes in great health - otherwise.

I voted against turning 50!

My vote didn’t count :(

Hopefully we will one day be 80 and 88 on FR :)

An anorectic usually has a very gaunt face-—she doesn’t.

- night before her 20th bday

- partying with friends

- on an expensive vacation

- lives a fast paced jet set life

- parents and her have money

- very body looks oriented, to stay thin

- still in ‘young dumb and immortal’ phase of life

Obvious plausible conclusion, is enough alcohol and drugs from the partying the night before to kill her.

“...pajamas ...”

For some reason, Ralphie in the Bunny pajamas from “A Christmas Story” came immediately to mind... I dunno why...

Haha!!!
