Heath Ledger's Accidental Overdose - Discussion Thread (Was: Breaking News)

<< < (36/59) > >>

I find this hard to believe. I have bought prescriptions online (due to their inexpensiveness) and they don't ship them till the prescription is sent to them. I have always needed a prescription.

But an ad was put in the Australian paper from "the men and women of Bettermost.net." There is every possibility Heath's family and friends may come to this site. Do we really want them to read that he was a drug abuser, and that he and they are equally responsible for his death because they didn't care enough about him?

Please. Think of what you're saying, and who might read it. This is the last thing they need.

I just read this entire thread and what you posted, Verona, was the best post of the whole lot! 

We are all upset, we won't be gettin any more information.  We all loved Heath,  Heath is no longer with us. 

As Annie wrote,

"they'd never got much farther than that. Let be, let be." 

HerrKaiser:
Has there been blame placed on his parents here? That would surprise me.

I see this whole thread as people who cherished and admired Heath grieving him and trying to come to terms in their own mind with the tragic and (IMO) disturbing news concerning the accidental cause of death. This is a message board and that's the way we give voice to our feelings.
No, I wouldn't want to cause Heath's friends and family pain for the world, but I am relatively sure they have had the same reactions that are being currently voiced here. So hopefully they would recognize this for what it is: Bewildered people who loved and respected Heath, dealing with their grief, going through all the common stages and mental processes of bereavement. Hopefully they would realize that this is in fact the background for all the many threads here on Heath's passing, - some of which certainly contain painful matters such as harsh news items, images, - and related discussions.

I think Heath was trying to get well as fast as possible because he was going back to film some more in a few days. He was very professional -- he would not want to miss work by being sick. I hate to miss work. If I am feeling bad, I'll stay home all weekend and rest to try and feel better so I'll be able to go to work on Monday. (It's VERY aggravating -- people who miss on Mondays because they partied all weekend -- then others/I have to do their jobs for them.)

And if I'd had the prescriptions that Heath had, I'd be likely to overmedicate, too, to try to get well faster. Not good thinking, but it happens. He just wanted to feel better.

Such a lovely, darling person -- such a loss for the whole world.
