Shared the FB page.  So sorry to hear this Jai, just heartbreaking.  God bless you and your family, and know you will see your son again.  He definitely sees you.  Prayers go out to you all.

 

Thank you brother!  God bless

I have no words - I just can't imagine.  I know that I would want to die too, but then you have to think about your other child and you have to go on.  I am a nurse, and did my pediatric rotation through the Levine Children's hospital (not called that then).  I remember that I wanted to be a pediatric nurse when I first started nursing school.  It was when I did that rotation that I knew I could never do it.  I was only thinking of cute sweet kids - and I learned right away that these are cute sweet kids, but that they die more than you'd ever want to know.  I am so sorry.

I'm not religious by any measure but I will pay tribute for your son. Meningitis is no effing joke. Beware. It's one of those diseases/viruses that no one takes seriously until it's staring you in the face and the physicians tell you what you're facing.

 

Your exactly right.

im sorry for your lost.i could only imagine the feeling of losing a child. do the Dr. know how he got Meningitis?

 

The Dr's can't pin point how or where, see, Meningitis is so common, it's all around us.  You've been exposed to it as well as everyone else, usually our immune system fights it off.  The doctors exact words to us is that this was "horrible luck"

This is probably the worst loss anyone could ever imagine.  As has been said, our words will not be enough to do anything but let you know that we recognize what a horrible loss you have experienced and to let you know we are sorry.  We also have great hopes for you and your wife and hope you guys can lean on each other.  Our faith is an underlying floor for us, but we are also human.  There will be a lot of whys in your future, don't be afraid of them.

 

Hang in there, I am so so sorry, have never experienced such a loss.

Thank you guy's for the condolence's and wise words.  Please, if you have facebook, visit that page, and share it as much as possible.  I'm looking into working with a few agencies, and hopefully, even our beloved Panthers to bring awareness to this invasive, violent ailment.

 

We never realize how serious something like this is until we are staring it in the face and the dr's are explaining it to us.

My heart breaks for your family. I am so sorry for your loss. You are right for doctors are human. THEY MAKE MISTAKES! I hope every one reading this thread takes your advice. My wife would have died of colon cancer had we not gone to get a second opinion. She was pregnant with my second child at the time. Thankfully I had nurses who I worked with and were friends who helped us make the right decision to get a second opinion. God Bless your family. Thanks for speaking up on the issue of meningitis and doctors too common false diagnosis.

    • Damn back to 10th. I only caught the last 5 minutes but some of those 3's were horrible lol. In that close of game you can't be launching those many hail mary's when you could be chipping away from the foul line. I guess no one wanted to get in the paint and didn't trust the refs to give them the calls maybe? Gonna watch the highlights to get a better idea of the flow of the game
    • I agree.  The Big 12 is a good conference, and he is the swinging dick in that conference.  If Bill Self retires, that sets Kansas back a bit, and Arizona moves even further ahead as the best team in that conference.  Arizona can crush west coast recruiting with USC / UCLA no longer being relevant for LA kids, and Gonzaga not being able to compete moneywise.   If Lloyd comes here, he will be second fiddle to Duke every single year in NIL and recruits.  Not to mention the entire SEC and Big East for kids who want to stay in those regions to play. This is why I keep saying go get Mark Few.  Has proven he can do more with less from an X / O perspective but can also recruit All American players and compete at a high level. He's a god at Gonzaga, but for $9M he'd make the move as that's 4x what he's making at Gonzaga, and makes him the highest paid coach in the country. 
    • Certainly not going to miss his constant whiffs on sacks and tackles.
