This is really a sad thing, i hope he recovers well. We lose sight with this endeavor and you know irrespective of outsiders opinions , you become some engrossed with trying to ever improve you forget the body can only do so much. A lot of the time we need to be reminded this is just a hobby and life has so much more to opportunities to offer that we should embrace them.
He looks like he has lovely partner and must be hard for her to witness this, so hopefully everything works out.
Dam this sucks he was a really good guy. Never met him or talked to him other then casual conversation on fb. Very passionate about bodybuilding. I hope he makes a fast and speedy recovery
