Still, so sad.

All accounts I've heard are totally discounting the suicide theory, Jude. I don't think anyone believes that to be the case at all. Sad, no matter what, but -- like you said --some comfort in the fact that it wasn't intentional.
This from an NYT interview in November:
“Last week I probably slept an average of two hours a night,” Ledger told the newspaper. “I couldn’t stop thinking. My body was exhausted, and my mind was still going.” He said he took two Ambien pills, which only worked for an hour, the paper said.

Why was he in so much pain. Depression? Exhaustion for working too hard? What was goin' on with him, does anyone know yet?

I feel the same way Mario (welcome, BTW). I was trying to xplain in chat just a couple nites ago why I liked Heath in Casanova so much. It was so great to see him smiling and a twinkle in his eye! He said one time that he took that part just to shake off the gloom that he felt after BBM, but I fear he wasn't able to totally shake it.

I think I'll logoff for a while..
It felt good to write this little poem.
Rest In Peace
May you sleep softly tonight
Rest your head upon the clouds
Close your eyes and sleep tight
May you sleep softly and find rest
Then may you soar far away from this place
Back home, to your very own blissful nest
May you find solace on this and all days
Look down often with a smile
Rest in peace. Rest in peace for always.
Brokie Hugs to all,
~M
