Heath Ledger - the grieving thread
Penthesilea:
Matilda will never conciously know her daddy. She will not remember him. Poor Matilda. Poor Michelle. And all his family.

My mind cannot process 'Heath Ledger' and 'dead' in the same sentence.

I know exactly what you mean, BBM-Cat!
I just saw an Aussie contestant on American Idol who sounded so much like Heath that it brought tears to my eyes!
Meryl:
It's nice to see old friends coming by as we grieve our beloved Heath. Nice to see you especially, Mel. :-*
I'm still numb, except for bouts of anger. I can't believe I'm posting a memorial to him in the Cult thread and looking online for quotes and poems to help express the loss. I just can't believe it, God damn it.

God bless BetterMost. I love you guys. Heath, I'll miss you so much; I've never experienced this from a movie in my life. I wish I'd had the opportunity to meet you and tell you in person.

I know! I was over there as well, and couldn't believe the troll posts. I probably shouldn't even mention the unpleasantness here.
I know my true home, though! I give thanks for my Bettermost family everyday!

I heard about this tragic news at the airport. I was stunned to say the least. The news was via a text message a co-worker recieved. I was hoping it was a rumor and incorrect. Alas it wasn't.
Suicide was my first thought. I thought "well maybe he was distraught over the breakup. Did he lose visitation rights?" There had to be a reason. His career was still climbing. The Batman movie would certainly have paid well. He had the world by the shorthairs. But I suppose none of that matters when you are unhappy. Drugs. I hate them so.
Heath is Ennis. Ennis is Heath. Ennis is frozen in our minds after the movie. Now Heath is too. So sad.
I wonder how Jake reacted?
Sorry for the rambling. :'(
Hi John Gallagher! Thanks for checking in. Please give Jenny and Meryl a hug from me when you see them next. I miss all my NY Brokies so much.

I will! I'm meeting Meryl tomorrow morning around eleven--I'm sure we'll have a coffee and a little cry. We'll also probably walk by Broome Street. It's probably wrong to do so, but--somehow not. (We'll have good thoughts, not bad ones--or worst, small ones.)
