Former actor dead at 36 :-(

Post by BleepingBeauty » Tue Jan 16, 2018 11:14 am

I'm not familiar with him as an actor (he was in the Disney film Heavyweights), but he died in his sleep last week at the age of 36.

Yes, he had apnea; no word on whether he was treating it... RIP.

Veni, vidi, Velcro. I came, I saw, I stuck around.

Dx 11/07: AHI 107, central apnea, Cheyne Stokes respiration, moderate-severe O2 desats. (Simple OSA would be too easy. ;))

PR S1 ASV 950, DreamWear mask, F&P 150 humidifier, O2 @ 2L.

Apnea goes hand in hand with several other serious health conditions,
any of which can be deadly.
At 36, dedicated health self-care is not a priority.
So sad.
