Missouri ER doctor who vanished 3 days after proposing to fiancée found dead

So, I came across this crazy article about a Missouri ER doctor who disappeared just a few days after he proposed to his fiancée. Turns out, they found him dead not too long after - talk about tragic.

Apparently, the doc was a bit of a mystery man. After he proposed, he disappeared from work and stopped answering his phone, leaving his colleagues and loved ones to search for him. Days later, his car was found in a ditch and his body was discovered nearby.

The article doesn’t say much about why he went missing or how he died, which is kind of frustrating. But what I find intriguing is the fact that the doctor was known for his work with substance abuse patients - a field that can be extremely rewarding, but also quite emotionally draining.

My best friend is actually a counselor who works with substance abuse patients, and she’s always telling me how much of a toll it can take on your mental health. I wonder if that could have been a factor in this doctor’s disappearance and death.

Overall, this article serves as a somber reminder that life is fragile, and that sometimes we never truly know what someone is going through. It’s important to check in on our friends and loved ones, and to seek help if we’re struggling with our own demons.
