ITA.

Quite possibly she might have had an underlying medical issue

not visible to those close to her. Maybe lowered immunity

not able to fight normal viruses which wouldn’t affect most.

Maybe it was the meningitis or a combination of both.

A very smart & accomplished young woman, she will be missed. Blessings to her loved ones. Rest In Peace.

@sidsmom  I was thinking the same thing.  Possibly some immune system compromise that nobody was aware of???  Beyond tragic.

30 yrs ago A friends husband went to sleep one night and didn’t wake up.  Had not been sick, no known medical conditions.  Autopsy and toxi tests concluded his heart just stopped.  He was just over 30 years old.

• @RetRN@kitcat51@haddon9@meallen616@sidsmom thanks to all of you for expressions of sympathy.  She truly was a good and most beautiful person inside and out.  She had climbed the ladder of success rapidly over the last 2 years due to her hard effort. Family is dealing as best as could be expected.  She was close to home due to a fill-in appearance on a tv network the night before.  There were many diagnoses kicked around and it is truly confusing at this point.  She was my great-niece.  May she RIP.

Frightening and tragic.  When I read about this tragedy yesterday, I was deeply distressed.  So sad.

May her family and friends find comfort somehow, and may she rest in peace.

It has to be more than ‘...just stopped’ when talking about a 30yr old.  

Humans are not built by a Greater Power to just expire without notice,

especially at that age...without an underlying issue not addressed.

There has to be a level of self-care not met in these cases.

I too had seen Bre many times on my network of choice. She was very articulate and seemed well educated beyond her years of life. Always seemed so alive and a happy young women. 

Condolences to all who loved this young lady. I will miss her and her insightful commentary and smile.

Thanks for noting this, @RetRN.  Everyone familiar with her seems to be shocked and grieving the loss of this well-loved, promising young writing talent.

Condolences to you and the rest of your family, @kjae.
