I was shocked and saddened by the news of Cory Monteith's death. My heart goes out to his family. I don't think a family ever really recovers from the loss of a child.
I can only guess, but the writers did have some warning when Cory relapsed last March and they were probably cautious about writing him into the fall episodes.

Glee star Cory Monteith was found dead in a Vancouver hotel room Saturday afternoon. He was 31.
The cause of death was not immediately known, but foul play was not suspected. An autopsy is scheduled for Monday.
According to reports, staff at Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel discovered his body after he missed his check-out time.
“We are deeply saddened by this tragic news,” read a statement from Glee producers, Fox and 20th Century Fox Television. “Cory was an exceptional talent and an even more exceptional person. He was a true joy to work with and we will all miss him tremendously. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones.”
Last March, Monteith entered rehab for substance addiction, forcing Glee to write his character Finn out of Season 4′s final stretch. Upon his release one month later, the actor said to fans, ”Sending out big love to everyone. Thank you for the continued support! It means the world to me!” He made his first public appearance last month when he attended the Chrysalis Butterfly Ball charity gala in Los Angeles with girlfriend and co-star Lea Michele.
Monteith, who had been candid about his struggles with addiction, previously received treatment when he was 19. He told Parade magazine in 2011 that he was “lucky to be alive.”
Monteith’s colleagues and friends took to Twitter early Sunday morning to express their shock and grief.
