Miguel Cotto's father dies of heart attack

[Diane]

My thoughts and prayers go out to Miguel and his family during this difficult time.

My heart goes out to Miguel now, more than ever.

It's obvious that Miguel got a lot of his characteristics from his father, and that the two were extremely close, so I know that Miguel's heart must be breaking from this.

Rest In Peace Don Miguel.







What I want to learn more about, is why it took so long for them to get help out to him? The clerk that called 911 said that he called four times! First at 2:04, then 2:14, 2:15, and then finally at 2:53 to let them know that he died. So 45 minutes went by, and still no help. Would he have survived if they would of had a better response time?

Cotto doesn't seem to be having much luck at the moment.

Condolences to Cotto and family. And peace to Cotto senior.

Condolences to the Cotto family. May God be with them through this tough time.

We may never know but I know that for heart attack, the first couple of minutes often play a very crucial role. Sure, it doesn't mean he would have survived but we can always wonder as it normally plays an important one.

I cant even begin to imagine how Miguel and his family must feel right now. This is very, very sad news. My heart and prayers go out to the Cotto family at this very difficult time.

R.I.P. Cotto Senior.

yea then played a video on the news this morning, basically had Miguel Sr laying on the floor covered with a sheet, and Miguel was on his knees next to him, his hand on his father's chest, he pretty much seemed to be in a daze, his face was blank as if still trying to process what happened, very tough to watch in all honesty, doesn't matter who it was, i wouldn't be shocked if the Pacquiao fight ends up being his last

Not sure if I saw the same video, but I had seen video yesterday that showed Miguel's mother on her knees leaning over his body, and then Miguel beside his father, and he had his hand on top of his dad's hand.

And you're right Miguel looked so lost.

I started crying when I seen that.




On another note, I'm glad that I'm not the only one that is pissed at the slow response from 911 getting help to him.
