Teen dies after falling ill by Joi Ware

Summary: On Saturday December 7, a sixteen year old fell ill on a Delta Air cross country line. It was said that the teenager died of natural causes. Although the name was not released it was found that the child was the son of a soldier "from the 16th combat Aviation Brigade of the 7th Infantry Division out of Joint Base Lewis-McChord at Fort Lewis, Washington. The kid and mother were flying to go out and be with the father at the new base. The Child's flight was going to Atlanta but it had to change to Spokane after the emergency. The kid's autopsy is planned for Monday.

Analysis: This is really upsetting that this kid died on this flight. I couldn't imagine how his mother and father must feel losing their child when on the way to reunite. These things happen and it makes it clear that life is very fragile. Its scary how people's lives can just end so abruptly. I hope when the results of his autopsy comes in that there is no sign of foul play and that it was indeed natural causes.
