I spoke with Grant just the other day for his birthday. He thought he'd caught bronchitis. I no longer believe that's what it was. Grant told me he'd received death threats. His phone better be among his things at Hamad hospital

Very sad story.
He was killed
Or died suddenly due to a cold.

Yes, lots for heart disease. It's the second most common cause of death for men his age (45-54).CSTXAg92 said:TXAGFAN said:Or maybe he just dropped dead like countless men his age - not everything is a conspiracy or vaccine related.CSTXAg92 said:
