Sharing this from the OnlyGround
Good evening,
This is David Galloway’s wife Lisa (Mrs. camicom). I am very sad to post this, David Galloway aka camicom has passed away today Saturday December 28, 2024 at 11:05 am at Sacred Heart Hospital in Spokane, WA. For additional context, David went into respiratory diestress Wednesday night December 25th at 10:30 pm. He was taken by the Rapid Response Team for scans and blood work. They stabilized his breathing. He DID NOT code that night and was brought back to his room. I was called back to the hospital and stayed with him until 2:30 am until I was certain his was fine. I came back at 8:00 am on the morning of Thursday December 26, 2024. He was awake and the nurses were attending to him. I said good morning and how are you. He response to me was “I’m tapping out”. I immediately said NO. But David had made up his mind. The treatments for the pneumonia were not working and he was getting worse. And he had a discussion with his doctor and the alternative didn’t look good either as it would involve the ICU, being on a ventilator and never leaving the hospital.
I just want to say to all the OGers on this forum, YOU ALL were a great source of support for David through the years. He made me promise to let you know what happened to him. I enjoyed David relaying the silliness from forum posts by you all. My favorites are the ‘What do?’, photoshopping people especially my husband after his Gamme Knife treatment, and when someone post something that happen to them, then someone else makes another post with a weirder story that reflects the original poster’s story. You guy get very creative.
I also want to thank those who donated to David’s Go Fund Me and the people who put on an auction. You all are truly good and generous.
I will continue to post updates for those who are interested about David. David also made me promise to mention the OnlyGround when I speak at his funeral and I will do that.
To those who have texted me. I have not responded to you yet but I will. I hope you understand.
