Heath’s Cause Of Death Confirmed
New York’s chief Medical Examiner announced the cause of Heath Ledger’s death today. According to their offices, Heath died due to an accidental mixture of prescription drugs. He suffered acute intoxication by the combined effects of Oxycodone (a pain killer), Hydrocodone (Vicodin), Diazepam (Valium), Temazepam (anxiety medication), Alprazolam (Xanax), and Doxylamine (a sleep aid). The Medical Examiner ruled out suicide as cause, but they did state that his death was caused by the “abuse” of medication. Heath Ledger was found dead at his Manhattan apartment on January 22. His body is back in his hometown of Perth, Australia, where he will finally be buried. Michelle Williams and daughter Matilda are said to already be in Perth. I hope the announcement regarding the cause of his death gives a bit of closure to his family and friends. RIP, Heath.

NOBODY was able to intervene before Heath’s death occured, that is so sad as he was a huge talent that we will all miss out on.
However, let’s consider it lucky for Britney that she is where she is due to the fights her parents and loved ones are putting up to get her off the Meds and Sam Lutfi’s Control.
Beats planning a pre-mature Funeral & I am sure Britney will appreciate this intervention in time.
