A father of five is dead after suffering a medical episode in Ecuador.

James Campbell of Wellington died at a hospital Sunday morning.

Campbell was a chief technology officer for a company in Provo, and was in Ecuador on business.

Earlier this month, Campbell had suffered a tear in his aorta.

He was hospitalized, and doctors told the family he wouldn't survive.

The Campbells started a Go-Fund-Me page in an effort to get him back home for treatment.

The 25-thousand dollars they raised will be used for transportation and funeral expenses.
