When she received no response from him she opened the door but did not see his silhouette in the shower. As she opened the shower door she found Mac’s lifeless body in the fetal position on the floor. Despite her attempts at CPR, as well as the EMT’s and doctors at the hospital they could not save Mac’s life.
An autopsy was performed but did not determine the cause of death. Mac’s heart was sent for further study; it was determined that a common virus found its way into his heart which led to Sudden Cardiac Arrest.
