Summary

Doctor Adeline Fagan was just 28 years old. She was in her second year of an OB/GYN residency at a hospital in Houston, where she also worked the front lines caring for Covid-19 patients. In July, she tested positive for the virus. By August, she was on a ventilator. Last week, she seemed to be turning a corner. Then, on Friday night, she developed bleeding in her brain and died early Saturday with her parents by her side. Her parents, Brant and Mary Jane Fagan, joined Anderson to remember their daughter.
