A few people noticed he had been MIA from things for over a month. We reached out and learned he had been in the hospital for 45 days with something called CMV virus, which he was at high risk for because of the lung transplant he received last year. The last we officially heard from him was he was recovering and expecting to leave the hospital. He was 43 years old. > [![A facebook post by one of Mike's relatives, transcribed below][1]][1] > > I want to thank everyone for their prayers. Please continue to keep my family in your thoughts and prayers as we go through this. My brother Michael passed away last night. [1]: https://i.sstatic.net/5Di5G.png
