slavetothehotlight 11 Report post Posted December 10, 2016 (edited) Had this happen to a young family member several years ago (died after they went to sleep). While I'm not suggesting its the reason in this case, for my family member it was by all accounts a first time using heroin that turned out was laced with fentanyl. If anyone remembers, there were multiple deaths that year (about 10 years ago actually) where people took this bad heroin. Hopefully it wasn't something like this but either way it is still very sad. RIP. Edited December 10, 2016 by slavetothehotlight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kickazz 5,459 Report post Posted December 10, 2016 Yeah, I mean not necessarily heroin or cocaine but sometimes could even be a prescription drug taken for an illness and accidental overdose. That's why I hate taking meds for anything. 1 puckloo39 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puckloo39 5,686 Report post Posted December 11, 2016 (edited) Could have been a number of things, none drug-related. He might have had an athletes-heart issue, it takes a lot of young kids unexpectedly. Whatever the issue, it's just tragic, and I weep everytime I think of the Daniels family's pain right now. The Wings are a family, too.. they will have all the support and love they can handle in this awful time. RIP.

So get on that machine Marcaractac ASAP I've just been going to the gym, working on getting myself in shape. If I have to depend on CPAP I'm not sure I'd ever be able to sleep again lol. I'm way too light a sleeper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can be very stubborn, so I'll take my chances lol. Luckily putting the condition behind me is something I myself have control over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
