| It is terribly tragic. I am so upset that the media is reporting that she died of a urinary tract infection though. It was detected later that she had a urinary tract infection, but any simple infection has the potential to turn a person septic, pneumonia for example is a big one. I would just hate to see a worldwide panic attack because people think they are going to die if they have a UTI

She died of septicemia due to a previously incorrect diagnosis. It's just tragic.

| It just reminds us all how important it is to keep on top of your health. Its so sad. Once your body goes Septic you've just got to hold on with a hope and a prayer that you can beat it. Poor woman. |
