In 2018, however, Robinson’s kidneys failed. When this happens, they aren’t able to remove waste and extra fluid from the blood on their own or regulate bodily chemicals, which can be fatal. He delayed treatment, intent on living life on his own terms. Life had other plans for him, though, when two years later, spry and 36 years young, Robinson got sick—worse than he could have imagined. He was in Philly for a basketball tournament for one of his three sons and caught a bad case of Covid. He lost his taste and was plagued by constant headaches, his body aching in a way it never had before. “When I got back home to Seattle, I went straight to the hospital,” he says. “It was bad, bro. I was in the hospital for a week. My body, my insides just… stopped working and shit.” -via Men’s Health / June 18, 2024
