It will be okay. 2 out of millions is not rational of me and sherry todd . YOU are right and they should close down Ms. All the millions in researching the safety of the ride is superceded by your omnicscience. Sorry for insulting you by my rational thinking. NOW I realize they should close it down.

I will buy you a coffee drink at the cart located between MS and Universe of Energy...it's where I go when the family goes on MS...I get a frozen coffee drink and sit onthe bench and relax....I make the same choice

MS rider or not. We tried it last time we were at Epcot and it is the best coffee at WDW. On a nice hot day the Iced Cappuccino is wonderful!

Sherry is right as this thread is tough. I don't think it's ANYONE'S fault, just a tragedy as some calm poster (unlike me) just said. There are NO winners here.

I could definitely be dead tonight and is why I just bought another million of term life plus the half million I have. Term life means I'm betting that I might die before the kids are grown so I'm no fool and only God knows the answers for sure NOT OM, Sherry, 55, Trippy, and all these other very smart Lper's here. I, most of all, am just trying to hang in there the best I can in this tough thing we call life.

" Joe, I don't know about your kids but the only imaging mine have received so far in their lives is a prenatal ultrasound at around 18 weeks gestation. They both visit the doctor for every scheduled well check and neither has ever had anything worse than an ear infection. There is generally no need to image a child for a prospective heart defect because they are so rare. Additionally, in order to get a proper echo on many young children they must be sedated which is riskier than the test itself. I don't know of many, if any, doctors who would take an otherwise normal, healthy child and subject them to imaging and sedation if it wasn't called for. It isn't standard of care to image every child's heart. Those parents could have taken their child to every well check appointment and taken impeccable care of their child and there still was an undiagnosed heart defect. Many people are walking around out there with defects they are unaware of because there are no outward symptoms, just like this little boy. I'd think twice before blaming the parents for an undiagnosed heart defect. It probably has absolutely nothing to do with his medical care. It was congenital.

I have heard of more guest complain about the extremely tight quarters. That's why there is a lot of cold air circulating to help with the claustrophobic feelings. This womans death is just a tragedy and my sympathy goes out to her family and friends.

Talkto someone in the biz-- this is not an old person phenomenon" Wasn't me that said that, Dave.
