Santo’s juvenile diabetes brought heart

Santo’s oakley sunglasses outlet juvenile diabetes brought heart attacks, heart-bypass surgery and the amputation of his legs. He died in December 2010 from complications of bladder cancer, robbing the baseball community of being able to hear Santo’s enthusiastic, recognizable voice describe the moment. How would Santo, the former Cubs third baseman and the class’s other half, have reacted to being inducted after 31 years of eligibility? What did Santo miss? His widow, Vicki Santo, said afterward that Santo would have missed the camaraderie and the parties, of which she said, “even with his fake legs we would’ve been out there dancing.” Instead of Santo’s raw emotion, what oakley limited editions sunglasses was witnessed was Vicki Santo’s stoic message: that her husband had viewed his “insidious disease” as a challenge to prove that diabetes was beatable so that he could inspire others and so that his talent, and his will, could endure. Instead of the usual lists of thank-you’s and clubhouse memories, Vicki Santo said that the best way to remember Santo was to keep fighting diabetes, keep searching for a cure. “The whole last decade of Ron’s life was very emotional for me,” Vicki said afterward. “I loved him. He was my husband. I wanted the best for him. And oakley photochromic sunglasses baseball was his life, and it also kept him alive the last 10 years of his life.”
