[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. He wrecked his hips by wearing platforms 24/7.

2. He refused hip replacement surgery for bizarre religious reasons.

3. He became addicted to dangerous pain meds, and used crazy pain meds to self medicate. (Doctors do not prescribe dilaudid and fentanyl...those are administered in the hospital under watch.)

4. He died. We aren't exactly sure why yet, but we can guess.

This is what we know. And this is what I'm explaining to my kids as they ask questions. Ignoring the addiction teaches kids that addiction is shameful and shouldn't be discussed. It teaches them to hide it.

When you say, "Let's not tarnish his reputation," you are fostering the harmful notion that addiction is shameful and should be hidden. Bad move. [/quote]

Wow. You actually don't KNOW any of the above. Why don't you wait before you make statements as facts.[/quote]

It's all over the media. You can choose to keep your head in the sand if you prefer. He nearly overdosed a couple weeks ago. The flu thing was a cover. He could not have performed that night (we've seen the video) if he had the flu.  You don't make an emergency landing for the early hours/stages of the flu. And he obviously wasn't in the throes of influenza when he performed. It's been leaked that he needed the narcon shot. [/quote]
