The Chris Attieh Foundation Chris Attieh (28 years old) passed way from complications from Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) and pneumonia in November of 2010. ARDS makes it difficult to get oxygen into the bloodstream. Each year numerous young previous healthy adults die from ARDS. Currently, health professionals do not know why some people are pre-dispositioned to develop ARDS. Chris left behind a legacy of generosity, kindness and genuine love to the people around him. The mission of The Chris Attieh Foundation is to continue his spirit of humanity and goodwill. |
