Hurdler from U of Arizona Lezo Urreiztieta dies during surgery

Hospitals are boxes of death.

If you ever go into one, thank your lucky stars if you get out alive and unharmed.

So sad, my condolences to his family and friends.

Here is a great article on Lezo Urreiztieta from the Arizona Daily Star:

So sad he's gone at age 20. Sounds like an incredible person.

Why exactly was he having brain surgery? I'm kind of confused here. That seems like an important part of the story.
