Making sense of Rocky's passing

Subs take it up the butt
We already know that 
rockytheprocy passed away from COVID. I been up all night trying to rationalize it, to make it make sense to me. I don't know why I am doing this. Maybe it's to put my own mind at ease. But here is what I gathered:
*Rocky made a few posts on FA and Twitter announcing his cancelation of his streams due to his illness. He posted such updates several times until his husband took over and announced the news of him having COVID.
*After being admitted to the hospital, he was basically sick but stable. However, he required oxygen.
*Another update showed some signs of improvement, but still needing to be monitored. It was also mentioned that Rocky hadn't eaten anything in a few days or even a week due to him being so sick. Rocky being malnourished probably made his body weaker.
*In another update by the husband, Rocky had a secondary infection.
*On February 26th, it seemed like things took a turn for the worse and he passed on the following day.
What does it all mean? I think between the lack of nutrients due to not being able to eat as well as fighting off a different infection, I think Rocky was incredibly unlucky in this situation and COVID took advantage of it. Again, why am I doing all this over analyzing bullshit when I should be sleeping is something I can't answer, but....maybe this is my way of trying to find closure. I still have his Telegram messages saved. We didn't talk much unless it was commission related, but I will hold onto these. It'll be a memory of him I can hold onto.

Now that I know everything about his passing, I... I feel like I'd prefer being ignorant about this...

Painful as it may be, it is the truth. Covid is going to be very active from here on and I hope by learning of Rocky's passing in detail, we can better prepare ourselves should we ever contract Covid. This is just my way of reaching closure, but everyone has their own path of reaching it.

I don't think even with this knowledge I'd know what to do if the same happen to my husband. When I saw the sorrow in Fauxesune's last Tweets, it struck me in the heart.

I know....i just cried my eyes out again, harder than the news from yesterday of his passing. I feel so alone and hopeless right now.

I... I wish I could have the words for you or even a heartwarming hug but... I'm just powerless...

Most people want the universe to make sense. I know I do. Sometimes, it just doesn't. I'm very sorry for his passing.

Not to worry, you weren't the only one trying to rationalize and think about this order of events. Its still so hard to believe this happened.
It makes sense if you know enough about the virus. What the virus does is just completely storm your immune system so that your body automatically diverts all energy of the body to try fighting the virus off. Not good since that can make the victim very tired and weak almost to the point of them being bed ridden. And the point of him not eating maybe due to nausea and anything he'd eat he'll feel like he'll immediately throw back up. But the key thing with this virus is to keep the energy up, unfortunately rocky couldn't and now he's no longer with us. It's a real shame. This virus is a nasty nasty thing and honestly a good majority of the worlds population needs to get their heads out their asses and take this more seriously.

Indeed. I was kind of ignorant at how COVID works, but after looking into Rocky's situation, it opened my eyes. I'm also doing better now and am moving on.
