SECOND EDIT: Kevin is still hanging in there 12 hours after being taken off life support. There is a very slim chance of recovery and I sincerely hope he does.
Hi, I'm Kevin (FHM)'s girl, who used to post here regularly but no longer does.
Kevin's mother DMd me on Twitter just now saying he is in very critical condition after having a seizure in the ER that led to his heart stopping. He had gone earlier today to get himself checked out due to a recent illness.
It's made even more complicated as, as many of you know, he has ESRD and is on dialysis. His mother says he has some kind of infection and they're doing a spinal tap on him right now to see what it is. I've noticed that he is very lethargic recently, often dozing off three times a day or more.
This is obviously a tough time for his mum, dad, two kids and long-distance partner (me), especially at Christmas and having recently dealt with the theft of their car.
I will keep you updated as soon as I get more information. Feel free to post well-wishes.
UPDATE (2/28/15):
Unfortunately Kevin succumbed to complications of an infection on January 7th. The reason I have delayed this announcement was that his parents and stepmother asked that this information be withheld until his son's birthday. As many of you know, he was born with end-stage renal disease and spent his short life in ill health, requiring two kidney transplants. It's a miracle he was born into such a technologically-advanced era and managed to live life as full as he could.
His parents are fine, his kids are fine. They have no doubt he is watching over us. In fact, a couple of weeks before he was taken ill he had a dream he was in wrestling giants' heaven with Gorilla, Andre, Studd etc. Despite being only 5'4" he is definitely there. There is no bigger giant than the one with a courageous heart.
I will be keeping this account open in memory of him and condolences can be sent at any time.
RIP Kevin aka. DocSivana
