Poor family! I can't imagine. I don't think they have come to a definite reason as to why it happened.

Well, one factor was that she ignored the heat advisory and placed herself and her unborn child at risk by chosing to spend the hottest day of the year sitting in direct sunlight on the bleachers. :ohwell:

True. The past week has been too hot to even walk outside much less sit outside for long periods of time.

True. She probably felt she was in excellent health and could handle the heat. Horrible way to learn a lesson. I feel for the family.
