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.

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.
