I know it's a win, but that felt like a loss.

Glad that his treatment went well and that he shared this personal information publicly - because stories like this help push awareness forward in a way medical journals or doctors never could. If even ONE PERSON learns the signs of stroke or gets a workup done they would have skipped - it's an overall win! Hopefully my son and I can see him in concert sometime in the future~

To me this story is a good reminder: 1. Stroke isn't just an "old age" problem 2. Sometimes the cause of a stroke isn’t hypertension, diabetes, or arrhythmia - it’s anatomical. 3. FAST Acronym reminder - Face drooping, Arm (or leg) weakness, Speech difficulty, Time (how long since symptoms starts and Time to call 911)

I'm a big fan and actually had tickets to the concert in Austin he canceled last year! (Yes @StubHub gave me a refund). @donaldglover (aka Childish Gambino) shared that he had a stroke and that afterwards doctors found a "hole" in his heart - which I BELIEVE (not sure of his exact diagnosis) to be a Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO).

News Headlines claim long-term #melatonin use may increase your risk of heart failure by 90%. Sounds terrifying - but is it true?

Often watched his late night chess streams and enjoyed his commentary at tournaments. He was the rare combination with insight of a Top GM with a lightning quick entertaining wit. Big loss to the chess community. RIP

The Naroditsky family shares the sad news of Daniel’s unexpected passing. Daniel was a talented chess player, educator, and beloved member of the chess community. We ask for privacy as the family grieves.

@GothamChess If he can maintain his form, Magnus can win the 2027 edition then retire

Very interesting. I have said for a long time that the best in the world should be determined in a mixed format. But chess has rich traditions and classical is still the most prestigious. But now we will have classical, rapid, blitz, world cup, and "total" champion. 😅

Did you face Rico? Lose Puka? Or like me...both? Whatever the case I bet you need a #MondayNightMiracle. So put it into the universe & manifest it happening. Personally I need Bill Crosky-Merritt to have the greatest game of his life. What do you need tonight? #MondayNightMiracle
