The cataract story and the house story are absolutely true. It is also true that the kids' kickstarter project failed, as most do. Mark Stephens did have a heart attack and stroke, his 21 year old son Cole did die unexpectedly in his sleep in April and sadly, on Saturday, so did Mark.

I don't know who Jeremy Reimer is, but he needs another hobby.

"his 21 year old son Cole did die unexpectedly in his sleep in April"

I never said that I thought otherwise, nor did I reference Cole in my linked article, and the comment you replied to didn't mention Cole either.

Yes I also found that odd. Particularly because it's a common rhetorical tactic to mislead by redirecting focus away from uncomfortable questions to more defensible claims (which also evokes sympathy in this case).
