don youngblood's death

[LATS]

just giving a update to the story.. apparently there was more factors than first thought.. according to people who know, don was struggling with diabetes.. he was diagnosed two years ago and he was just learing to keep it under control before his death.. he also had a history of aneurysm in his immediate family.. he lost a 11 year old daughter to a aneurysm a few years back.. i have heard two varying stories as to his passing.. one was cardiac related.. the other was that he suffered a aneurysm.. either way, he was a good guy by all accounts and a very successful business man..

I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE TO LOSE A CHILD.

THAT WOULD TEAR A PERSON APART.

THE WHOLE THING SUCKS. HIS FAMILY HAS GOT TO BE HURTING.

this is what I like to see, not the death of people of any nature but information that disallows stupid ignorant comments and assumptions of peoples deaths. Luther Van Dross just died at an earlier age from past stroke. If her were to die
from something drug related would people stereotype him that cause he is black that it was from crack use, or heroin. People want to always assume what they dont know and assume by stereotypes and unfair information
gooey

Ask my wife-she lost a 7YO due to a freak accident.
She is crazy, Im sure thats why-I cant live with her and we got seperated.

Good to hear the bottom line on Youngblood, very unfortunate.

gooey.. here is my take on what you said.. i agree 100 percent that anytime we hear of health problems of former bodybuilders or deaths the assumption is gear.. well, the past issue of flex the editor lists derrick whisset as a bodybuilder (in a list of bodybuilders who have died in bodybuilding or have injuried themselves) who has died.. well, the dipshit fails to mention and probably does not know that derrick died from a bloodclot received after a head injury after a mugging.. derrick had not been involved in bodybuilding for many years before that... flex wheeler had a genetic condition that even his doctors state had nothing to do with anabolic use.. the contest prep of water reduction ect may have caused it to flair up earlier than expected but, it was going to happen.. anyway, we aqlways seem to jump to conclusions before facts come out.. the problem is the fact of the internet.. info is transfered so quick these days and put togther with the numerous message boards regarding bodybuilding and we are going to know if anyone has a cold let alone a major health issue.. we would not hear half of what we do if it was not for the internet.. not that we are not blameless but, it must be put into perspective..
