    Don't ever count out a patient on life support. You just never can, my mom went through a real nasty time about 2.5 years ago where she ended up on a ventilator having a machine breathe for her. It was the scariest time of my life.

    But she pulled through even though they felt she had no shot for survival. She was on the ventilator for over a month.

    Never ever count out the amount of fight in a soul. Sometimes the fight doesnt matter because the disease/injuries is too over-powering but there is always a chance.

    RIP Chris Henry.

    prayers go out to his family and friends.

    How do the Bengals play a game on Sunday? How do they focus? I know I certainly wouldn't be myself as a player two days after a team mate died.

    RIP

    I try not to be judgmental but this guy had nothing but drama in his life. What a stupid way to go. All he needed to do was to stay calm and he would still be here.

    Police: Bengals’ Henry dies day after dispute
    6 minutes ago

    By MIKE CRANSTON AP Sports Writer
    CHARLOTTE, N.C.(AP)—Charlotte-Mecklenburg police say Cincinnati Bengals receiver Chris Henry has died, one day after suffering serious injuries upon falling out of the back of a pickup truck in what authorities describe as a domestic dispute with his fiancee.

    Police say Henry died at 6:36 a.m. Thursday. Henry was 26.

    Away from the team because of a broken forearm, Henry was rushed to the hospital Wednesday after being found on a residential road. Police say a dispute began at a home about a half-mile away, and Henry jumped into the bed of the pickup truck as his fiancee was driving away from the residence.

    Police said at some point when she was driving, Henry “came out of the back of the vehicle.”

    I don't wish death on Chris Henry. Rest in peace. But the words "domestic dispute" are kinda making me hold back on this one. I blame that little kid in the balloon for causing me to wait a few days on incomplete news stories.

    That really sucks, only 26 years old.

    I hope the investigation will show any wrong doing and prosecute the hell out of them/her.




    RIP, Chris Henry

    My guess... he was cheating on his girl/wife and she found out and got in the truck to leave. He jumped in the bed to chase after her and she sped up and he fell out.... thats my guess

    It appears that his fiancee was leaving in a pickup truck. He jumps in the back. She was leaving for a reason, why fault her?

    If you are asking me I never said it was.

    We all know what was reported thank for that.


    Does it not seem odd to you that she didn't pull over during this obvious dangerous situation? He likely was not just sitting in the bed of the truck,

    I'm not saying she be charged with murder, I just hope there was no foul play going on.
