Can you get a liver transplant if your liver is damaged due to drug and alcohol use?

Could’ve been an ED.

What is ED? Google is only telling me erectile disfunction, which doesn't make sense.

Eating Disorder.

Maybe, but “struggles” could also just refer to health struggles.

Statement who released?

Never mind. I googled and googled some more until I found both references.

"She was electricity. You knew when she entered a room because the vibration changed. Everything she did, she did 200%. She laughed the fullest at someone's joke, she faced authority head on when she felt something was wrong, she cared deeply about her work, she was proud to be a part of this community and industry as painful as it could be sometimes, she was fiercely loyal to her friends and brave for those she loved, she was big and bold and distinctly herself.
And she always had yummy caramel smelling lipgloss on because she didn't just want to sparkle on camera, she liked creating a nice experience for anyone who was in her orbit, even down to the subtle smell of her lipgloss because she cared about the sweet details.
She was a kind person, through and through. Time passes. You take for granted that you get the chance to see an old friend. To paraphrase, the real tragedies in life are the ones that blindside you on an idle Tuesday.
Hold those you love and have loved dear. The world lost a deeply sensitive and good person in Michelle. May her work and her huge heart be remembered by those who were lucky enough to experience her fire,"

So basically she hasn’t kept in touch with her since the show but posted something so she doesn’t look like a jerk.

Dh is a liver transplant surgeon. It’s very rare to have patients die post transplant, maybe one or two a year, and almost never do they die outside the hospital (nearly all complications require hospitalization). Either she was not taking her anti rejection drugs or the cause of death was unrelated to the transplant.

I think this is really nice, and really gives a sense of who she was

Yes, an electrical fire.

It's not just that. She used the word "yummy" in text messages with Justin Baldoni, it's relevant to the lawsuit, so she's using it again publicly to prove that's a word she uses a lot.

I actually thought it was quite a sweet statement.

I thought any death in a person of this age would be a “public death,” meaning autopsy is not optional (ie, not left to the family!s discretion).

Perhaps because she was under a doctor’s care?

I had the same thought. Also all the stuff about how she spoke her mind in a painful industry. It felt self-serving.

Yes several have said they wish they could have helped. And her parents declined autopsy. Signs indicate a sad situation not 100% medically related.
