JR's Blog: Eddie Fatu aka Umaga's Condition Worsens

JR's Blog:  Eddie Fatu aka Umaga's Condition Worsens

Posted: Dec 7th 2009 By: CMBurnham

The news out of Houston is not good for Eddie Fatu aka Umaga.

I was informed by someone who has spoken to a Fatu family member that Eddie has been removed from life support and his condition is obviously grave. Unfortunately, one can expect more bad news to be released imminently.

Reportedly, Eddie had a massive heart attack while sleeping but those reports are not official. Eddie had just returned from a tour of Australia where he reportedly was, seemingly, healthy and doing well.

Eddie has a young family and a loving wife that really need everyone's prayers and support at this time.

This is a huge shock to me as I thought Eddie was doing well and had lost some weight over the past several months. Eddie was a natural and possessed amazing agility and quickness for such a large man. He always seemed to me to be a good hearted, sensitive guy. God Bless Eddie Fatu.
