61. This is such a loss. Heath was such a rising star. I am so sorry for Michelle and Matilda's loss. God be with you both.

62. To #32 I'm So sorry about your loss. Reading your story brought tears to my eyes, as I actually had to stop for a second, regroup, and finish reading it. As I'm sure you problably had tears coming down your face as you were typing it. All those memories come rushing back to you like it was yesterday. The pain never going away, just pushed to the side a little temporarily just so you can make it through the day. Then when you hear things like this or any kind of death it all comes flooding back quickly. It's a living nightmare that never goes away, you never wake up from it. Or recover from it. And Nothing will Ever fill that void. My heart goes out to you, and to All the people that have lost a child. No one should ever have to bury their child. It has to be the worst thing in the world to have to do! I can't image anything being worse than having to do that. I'm So So sorry.....

63. So far, nearly all the reports about this are followed up by how there is no truth to it. It really needs to stop. Report the facts. Stop trying to get people in a frenzy to read more and go to these sites more. All it's done is piss people off. It needs to stop.

64. You have to wonder why she has been so callus, even on the phone with her whole "I already have people coming over" to the person who phoned her. I smell a fish and what a coinky dink that MK is a part of it.

65. its not cocaine, its heroine..watch the videos of him with the dope itchy-scratchies...i lived thru it with an ex-husband (divorced him for the same reason michelle left him)..if you've ever known someone on heroine, you'll recognize the signs...and i begrudge him nothing, he deserves all the kudos and accolades he has and will receive as a talented actor..still, hes gone way too soon and he will be missed...

66. TMZ has backed off the Heath Ledger story for one reason only.. possible law suits for printing/starting false and unsubstantiated stories about Ledger within hours of his death.

67. thank you 63- and God Bless you.
I would wish no parent ever go thru a loss that is so great that every inch of your body and soul
feel it to the core. A lifetime of pain that still to this day, takes my breath away when I realize I will not see her on this earth again. Yes story like this bring it all rushing back. With God's help his family will get thru this part and the very tough times ahead. At least they have his daughter to help them carry on without him.

68. I've had the privledge of being present at many deaths, I am a former oncology and hospice nurse. It seems impossible to me that anyone would not know if someone was dead just by looking at them, yes even face down. However, if you touch and shake them, there is no way you would not know instantly that they were dead.

69. Heath,

I'm so sorry you lost your life at such a young age; you, my dear, were a superlative actor. May your soul rest in peace and may light perpetual shine upon you.

Folks, listen up all of you before you judge him too harshly: With the anxiety and sleep disorder Heath suffered, it isn't at all unusual for physicians to try several and various types of drugs before the winning and most helpful combination is found. I suffered terribly after using ativan for a very short time; it caused me to have suicidal thoughts and cry constantly. Mayo Clinic discovered a treatment plan that worked best for me. Heath wasn't so lucky; I feel certain this was a tragic accident because you never know when you try a new pill what side affects you will incur.

Peace and love,
Karo

70. I think the police should ask Mary Kate and the masseuse why their first calls were not 911. It appears as though they were doing damage control from the get go.

71. donna nyc -- Wow, thank you, Best to you and yours. First honest thing I've read all day.

Posted at 5:47PM on Jan 25th 2008 by Whoa!

72. The question is, why WOULD they have called 911 first? If he was dead, what would an emergency service do for him? Sorry, but there really was no rush considering he was dead. The masseuse probably wanted to know what the heck to do, so who better to ask than a friend who lived around the corner who is a celebrity herself.

73. Why can't you guys get better pictures of Heath? It's like you choose the shadiest, grainest looking picture for every story about him. You all are truely heartless and classless. Let the man rest in peace.

74. I was shocked to hear of Heath Ledgers death, I felt bad, even though I wasn't necessarily a fan I did enjoy the movies tha I have seen with him in them. I do believe with what I have read that he was an incredible and loving father and very involved in his daughters life and that is awesome. I believe the masseuse needs to be seriously inverstigated how do we know that she was only a masseuse,she may have been there to bring or give him drugs. It does not make since that she would call mary kate all those times, unless she had some involvement and may have been afraid of what to do next. Mary Kate really should be questioned, because even if they were dating why we should send a security team over when someone could be dead or maybe near death for all she knew. The housekeeper said he was alseep and snoring at one oclock p.m so what happened when the masseuse got there maybe she gave him too much of something, we will have to see. The toxicology report will tell us alot, may He rest in peace, and for the record I do not believe that he intentionally killed himself, I believed he loved his baby too much for that.

75. I think it is horrible for Michelle Williams to arrive at her home and have to be put through that. I feel terrible for her to have to explain to her daughter that she can not see Daddy anymore. They were a very private and normal couple. When something like this happens there should not be 1000 cameras in their faces. Heath Ledger's family and friiends deserve more then speculation on how he died. No one knows until they have the results. Respect his mempory and family.I think Anne Hathaway said it best when she said be decent.....
