Media reporting alcoholism as the cause of a celebrity death


It is sad that someone had to die for this, but I am glad to see that the media reported ALCOHOLISM contributed to the cause of death. Not heart attack or liver failure, etc.

Very sad, indeed.

My husband's death certificate reads, "Renal Failure, cirrhosis and diabetes." It was his end stage alcoholism that caused all of this. I was glad to hear this news being accurately reported as well.

I saw so much irony in the article. It said she had "hunger for life." I just want to yell, IF SHE WAS SO HUNGRY FOR LIFE, WHY DIDN'T SHE GET HELP???

I always loved her work and thought her special, her talents sure did shine thru, Alcohol didn't diminish that.

Of course didn't know she was an alcoholic until they announced her death.

Sorry to see her go so soon. Her choice..

Hugs, Bettina
