I took the friends and family mourning into consideration..
and my question was asked in general terms..

(...)
how come nobody made a thread about..
the kids who die in Iraqi, for example..
(whether we know their names or not..)



I know, right? LOL I don't mean to sound harsh, but it's crazy how everybody is on myspace or facebook like "omg brittany murphy died. sad face." did you know her— My mom died on the 4th of July and I didn't come post a forum. I'm just saying.. people die everyday. I didn't know the woman, never met her. Yes it's sad that she passed away, it's sad when ANYONE passes away. But I work in a nursing home where I see death on a regular basis. It's unfortunate, but it's a fact of everyday life. I don't get all hung up on celebrity deaths like OMG it's such a tragedy. It's not different from anyone else passing away. Let them rest in peace.

Oh, but they *are* different than the average Joes who die everyday. These are celebrities we're talking about. We live in America, where people know more about whos screwing who in Hollywood, than they know about whats going on in the war.


And fwiw, I don't think people are laying in bed crying and ready to slit their wrists over her death. It is natural to be shocked when someone we've watched in movies we love, dies.

Posted by aGua aQi states the following:
Hello. A cardiac arrest at the age of 32 = cocaine and/or heroine overdose. I don't care what they say. There's no way she died of "natural causes", unless, by some freak chance, she was born with some sort of genetic mutation that allowed her as an embryo to form a cocaine/heroine reserve which was then naturally lodged in her body somewhere, lying dormant all these years, until the ripe old age of 32, where it dislodged itself from its place of hibernation, traveling throughout her body, wreaking havoc on both her body and career, before finally (and very naturally I might add) killing her. 😉 Natural Causes, LA style .




I totally agree...and if you have lots of money and can buy as much drugs as you want....you can kill yourself.

If it is drug related the family probably wouldnt let the media get a hold of that information.

I think the major cause was from anorexia.



That was my opinion too.

I had a friend in high school die of heart failure in her sleep. It was totally out of nowhere, no warning signs - she was 18. 😢
Although no one wanted to admit it...it was pretty obvious she struggled with anorexia. She was really into fashion - she was brilliant actually, I'm positive she would have been something great.
She knew how "manipulate" her weight to look how she wanted and fit into the clothes she made herself. She looked just like one of those girls in the fashion magazines. She was beautiful. Really sad.

People don't realize how even a few months of that behavior can weaken your heart. It's not uncommon for someone to struggle with an eating disorder, recover, and still die years later of heart failure.
