Was forwarded this link:

That's all I know.

Best wishes for all involved.

So are you trying to start a discussion or just being a news reporter?

Assuming just passing on the information. At first glance it doesn't seem "dive" related.

And???

Hoping she's doing okay. I think most would like to know if there's any understanding if was a "diving" problem, or a medical problem that happened WHILE diving.

thanks.
I think you've figured out the root cause of your problems. Even sea lions get annoyed by splitfin divers silting out their dive sites. Switch back to your jets and you'll be safe from the sea lion silt prevention patrol from now on. - NWbrewer

Well, the story I heard on the beach, and the story in the article, are pretty different, I'm going to keep my mouth shut in respects to the woman and her family since information is conflicting. I think the article is trying to spare the reputation of the dive shop is was associated with

Another tragedy for all involved. I hope this was just that and not something that could have been prevented. My condolences to the Family and all those who were touched by this.
