He had been working in the field until 11 p.m. and missed the last step while getting off of his tractor, landing with his full weight on his hip. Over the course of the night, Hogan\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s leg became increasingly numb and EMS brought him to the emergency room at UNC Hospitals in the early hours of Sept. 16.<\/p>\n<p>The doctors determined that Hogan had developed rhabdomyolysis, a condition where injured muscle tissue deteriorates and releases myoglobin, which is toxic to the kidneys. Hogan had multiple surgeries, and while his condition had improved last week, his health deteriorated rapidly Thursday after a surgery on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>Hogan lived on Hogan\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Magnolia View Farm outside of Carrboro, where the Hogan family has farmed for more than 240 years. The farm is also home to Rameses, the UNC football team mascot.<\/p>\n<p>The family posted updates on Hogan&#8217;s condition to a website, caringbridge.org\/visit\/robandannhogan\/journal, which had more than 67,000 visits. According to the website, more than 40 family members gathered at the hospital Thursday night. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Local farming-community stalwart Rob Hogan died Friday morning at UNC Hospitals after a three-week battle for his life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12999","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ibiblio.org\/carrborocitizen\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12999","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ibiblio.org\/carrborocitizen\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ibiblio.org\/carrborocitizen\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibiblio.org\/carrborocitizen\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibiblio.org\/carrborocitizen\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12999"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibiblio.org\/carrborocitizen\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12999\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13021,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibiblio.org\/carrborocitizen\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12999\/revisions\/13021"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ibiblio.org\/carrborocitizen\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12999"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibiblio.org\/carrborocitizen\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12999"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibiblio.org\/carrborocitizen\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12999"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
