The actor lost his life due to heart disease, with Alzheimers being a significant contributing factor.
However, a Santa Fe doctor now claims he received a call from Betsy on February 12.
She was not a patient of mine, but one of my patients recommended Cloudberry to her.
She made an appointment for herself for February 12.
It was for something unrelated to anything respiratory.
Betsy allegedly canceled her appointment, saying her husband was feeling unwell.
Dr. Child added: We made her an appointment, but she never showed up.
She did not show any symptoms of respiratory distress.
The appointment wasnt for anything related to hantavirus.
We tried calling her a couple of times with no reply.
Its exceedingly rare for a seemingly healthy 65-year-old to drop de*d of it.
In fact, no ones heard of such a thing.

Hantavirus is transmitted to humans via rodent urine, saliva, and droppings.
Gene and Betsy were found lifeless in their Santa Fe home on February 26 in advanced states of decomposition.
