My heart breaks for your family. Thank you for your service.
Very sad.
“Passed away” at 43. Could we be more vague? This is the lead here… who, what, where, when, why, how? Unanswered. Not even a mention of there being a mystery concerning his death.
What happened?
Probably wasn’t anything they want to be publicized. Respect the family’s privacy. RIP Capt…
Why aren’t there regular check ups/exams for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) for fire fighters (from physicians who know how to specifically recognize it)? I don’t get it. In saving lives Fire fighters face life threatening events repeatedly (i.e., raging fires which move fast with heavy smoke). In CA fires are not a infrequent event, it’s EVERY season. There should be regular PTSD exams and offered therapy for fire fighters, as well as police officers (who face traumatic, life threatening events as well) . These workers are at high risk, just like the military. It would be advantageous for future families, if changes are made in memory of Captain Wayne Stuart Habell. His death was work-related and due to lack of on-site mental health resources. The fire chief informed Mrs. Habell there have been 11 fire fighter suicide deaths this year alone. This news should not be suppressed. If it is not covered, no changes will be made. If Wayne had the option to speak with a on-site physician (or therapist) who was a PTSD specialist, he still might be here. A lot of these workers don’t express their feelings, as there is a stigma attached, and they don’t want to appear weak. As a result, the illness progresses and eventually ends in suicide.
