Natasha Richardson really was a charming actress in so many ways; she will be missed

This is so awful and so sad… when I heard I couldn’t help but feel so awful for those poor little boys and Liam and the rest of her family. But I gotta say kudos to you Trent for not being like the rest of those irresponsible journalists who only wanted the scoop and reported a whole bunch of erroneous stories before the truth came out. Thank you for being respectful and waiting until the statement was issued. Hope you are having fun in Austin!

I was praying she would recover and sue the living hell out of all those irresponsible TV ‘journalists’ and websites who had publically written her off, before they even knew what was really wrong with her or had an official statement. That was so disgusting. RIP Natasha.

Oh God, Liam and those boys, how tragic. The anchor of the family is gone. I just hope they come through it intact and together.

PS I used to work in a Neuro ICU and a Trauma ICU, experienced things like this a lot.

Her symptoms were classic epidural hematoma. Even if she hit her head pretty hard, she probably wouldn’t have lost conciousness… She thought she was fine (even though she really wasn’t) then she has a sudden massive bleed in her head hours later. If the pressure in the head is high enough, the brain dies. The body will follow shortly unless the family decides to donate organs, in which case measures are taken to keep the heart beating. Time of death is when brain death is declared.

@CRNA — actual death occurs when the heart stops so that would be the difference.

This whole thing is so sketchy. It is such a freak accident… I really did admire her work; she was such a bright light on the screen. I mean, I don’t get that it has only been two days since her accident and all of the sudden they pull the plug. I don’t get it. I mean, I know that when you’re brain dead you’re basically dead and all, but still. It just seemed so abruptly. Sometimes they wait at least a little while but I guess I can see it in their perspective. It must be so hard.

Brain dead = dead, btw. When you say “merely brain dead,” it makes it sound like there’s a difference, and there’s not.

She seemed so kind and nice. My thoughts go out to her friends and family, especially her two sons.. they’re too young to have to deal with the loss of their mom.

This makes me very, very sad. :(

I was hoping this wasn’t true. When the reports of her being brain dead came out there was a lot of angry responses that it wasn’t true. I wish that was the case.
It is very scary to think how quickly it can all end and how something so seemingly small(she was walking around after the fall) can lead to the loss of a fabulous actress’s life, a wife, a daughter, and mother.
Celebrities you love always seem so untouchable and it’s always an unpleasant jolt when one is taken away too soon.

My prayers go out to the whole family.

i don’t understand what the big deal is with peace out. you write it everytime someone passed away, whether you love or hate them. so especially @ al, the first time you haven’t liked something he’s written, well, he does it for everyone. get over it.

Just so sad..I can’t imagine what her family is going through right now..This can turn into a positive, though..My son hates wearing his helmet when snowboarding and this is just the kind of thing I tell him about! All it takes is a fall and hitting your head in a total random spot to cause so much injury..Even on the bunny slope! Ugh..So so sad..

My heart broke when I heard the news… I’ve seen her in quite a few of her movies and I loved her in all of them… she just always played her role so well. I think the Parent Trap was my favorite… she was the coolest mom ever in that movie! And her boys are just hitting their teen years so they won’t get to have their mom fuss over them anymore… I feel so horrible for the entire family… my thoughts and prayers just go out to them. She will be missed.

P.S. I don’t think anything is wrong with the Peace Out… that’s Trent’s thing on here and I don’t think it’s rude… it’s his style.

Hey Trent,

Hope you’re having a great time in Austin! I agree about how sad this is — one minute everything is fine and the next everything is gone. Poor Liam! Love to all.

i’m glad you thought she reminded you of emma thompson. i ALWAYS got the two confused. Even when i heard about the accident i was thinking of movies with Emma. She was a fantastic actress..one that i know will be missed greatly.
