My Son, Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett

Published by Claudia Meydrech under Children,Deaths,Music,Parenting on July 13, 2009

Last week we have quite a shock when my son had a sudden seizure out of the blue, has never had one before, and he’s 27.  He lives home with us due to the economy and a job situation, and is uninsured, but had to be taken to the hospital to rule out any serious conditions, such as a brain tumor, etc.  After 2 days of tests, they couldn’t find a major cause, so we are waiting to see what time will bring, hopefully it was just on isolated incidence.  He doesn’t smoke, drink alcohol at all, or do any drugs, so all of those things have also been ruled out.

I have to admit that this happening to my son was a tougher blow to take than hearing about the sudden death of Michael Jackson because it was so much more personal, not to mention the death of Farrah Fawcett, I’ve been following her progress and had watched her special on television not that long ago.

Had it not been for the emergency and all the running I would have posted some fond memories about both…and plan to do so soon.

My son is doing well so far, by the way, and not having insurance may mean some help, a reduced price on the hospital bill, we’re still waiting to hear about that.

Back soon with some memories to share!
