Oh so lucky
It seems like nearly every day I’m reminded of how lucky Alicea and I are to have a normal, healthy daughter. There’s a dad at work who I was speaking with on Friday who’s daughter is repeatedly in the hospital with heart complications. He was telling me of another family who’s 3 year old child’s longest stint outside a hospital has been 1 month.
I just came across a little article from The Seattle PI about a 13 year old who died today of a heart attack … complications from progeria, or accelerated aging. There is a story (with a number of pictures) profiling Seth in 2004. See http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/specials/seth/
So sad.
