I mentioned in my last post that one of my professors from bioengineering had been in the hospital since last weekend (two weeks ago yesterday).
I found out about an hour ago that he died this afternoon. I'm still in shock. The last time I saw him was our final day of class, discussing swine flu, vaccines, the disease process, all of it. He was so excited and ready for his year long sabbatical in Singapore to teach (MIT has a sister school there, so to speak)...and now he's gone. He was still very young, and has a wife and family. I can't imagine what it would be like to go through all of this...
Rest in peace, David...you will be missed very, very much.
