Well, Rick had surgery this morning - so far, all went well...

From Ric ...

"I had surgery this morning. The seizures were caused by a hemorrhage that was caused by the tumor. They removed the tumor this morning. I've seen so many notifications but my vision is blurry so hard to read them all and I hardly can talk. Thank you so much for the love and support."
COOL RON,,really .some compassion here well brought.hope he recovers ,i'm sure its heart wrenching for him/family to see/feel.god bless him today..

If he recovers, hopefully he will stop all the drug use, which I am sure played a part in all of this.

Unless Flex magazine picks up the story first and states that it was a congenital condition.
stfu......you friggin moron!

RIP Ric - you will be missed

Tough to see a good person lose his battle...




This was posted on July 28th...

Dear friends and those beloved by Ric, an urgent request for your love and prayers. He is in critical condition, having suffered heart attack and organ failure. We are praying for a miracle. Please surround my dear brother with all the brilliant shining love you have for him, hold him in your hearts and pray for his recovery

July 29th...

Family and friends, Ric remains in a coma. Initial exam shows low brain activity, but results from other tests still need to be reviewed. Sadly, recovery seems unlikely. Please continue to surround him with your love and pray for him. I will update on his page with news or changes. Your calls and messages are appreciated and thank you for understanding responses are delayed.

July 30th... early morning...

Both doctors have confirmed that Ric is brain dead. They are keeping him alive so he can donate his organs. If you want to come see him, now is the time


RIP

Do not forget the legions of unknown bodybuilders who get sick everyday, and no one talks about.

Good that he got another year, though - after the surgery.

Not to mention all the people who don't fill their bodies with drug cocktails every day of their existence.

My comment about Warrior having hypertension is based on his Youtube videos in recent years where his face was constantly beet-red.



This picture was taken the day before his death



hypertension has no symptoms. bro myth science says nose bleeds, red face, headaches...all B.S.

google hypertension symptoms...before repeating like a monkey.

RIP fellow iron warrior.  Steroids, Slin, and GH use for idiotic bb'ing reasons should be tested for & be made an IFBB lifetime ban.  At least he didn't have to go through years of pain like some terminal illnesses.
