Freaky shit here. Emilio Diaz, Cameron’s father, developed a case of the flu recently and it turned into pneumonia. He was otherwise healthy, but still succumb to the disease at age 58. TMZ.com reports:
“We’re told the 58-year-old Emilio Diaz, a popular resident of Seal Beach, Calif., recently developed the flu which then turned into pneumonia. We hear his death was “shocking” as Emilio was in “terrific health.” Diaz is currently filming her upcoming flick “My Sister’s Keeper.” A source on the set tells us production on the film was shut down today. Emilio was a second generation Cuban-American who worked as a foreman for an oil company.”
Freaky, freaky shit. 58 isn’t all that old at all to be dying from anything. I guess it’s just a reminder to keep as good a care of yourself as you possibly can because you never know what might sneak up and take you…even then it still might take you.
Condolences are offered, but surely aren’t ever enough. Hopefully Cameron and her family are able to find a place of semi-normality sooner rather than later after this gigantic loss.
