Why am I obsessed with Anna Nicole Smith's son?

[HunnyBun 2]

Poor Anna Nicole. I hope she gets through this somehow. I have a child and I can't imagine how I could ever pick myself up after such a tragic thing.

From MSN news....

Police believe Daniel Smith arrived in the Bahamas on Sept. 9 and went directly to Doctors Hospital, a private facility in downtown Nassau. He spent the night in a room with his mother and one of her attorneys, Howard K. Stern, and was seen tending to his mother and newborn half-sister.

I just think it's weird that someone's lawyer - even a celebrity's lawyer - would fly to the Bahamas and spend the night with them in their hospital room (even if it's a "suite"). Especially the OB GYN floor. Makes me wonder if this guy is married. If I were the wife of A.N.S's lawyer, I would draw the line at this.

Or maybe I just don't relate to the rich and famous.

This guy is part of her extended family, it seems. He's everywhere she goes. I don't believe he is married. He simply happens to be 'a lawyer' who is really part of her entourage and runs interference for Anna Nicole. More like a platonic love relationship, if platonic at all... ???

Leatha....I was like this with Jim and Tammy Faye Baker...this was a long time ago but when the sex scandal hit the "Praise The Lord" ministry I craved every bit of information there was available on it....and then when the sex scandal started to reveal misappropriated donor funds then I got even worse! I think it was because, even thought they were "entertaining" that something was really wrong with the way they were living and how all the rest of us "donor" schleps were living.

OK, so now they're saying that all of the following have been ruled out:

Heart disease

Illegal drugs

Foul play

Stroke

Heart attack

Natural causes

Suicide

Does anyone have any idea what that could possibly leave???

What is wrong with me??? I am obsessed with finding out how Anna Nicole Smith's son died. I keep thinking about her and reading everything I can about the case. I've spent literally hours reading every article out there and they all conflict. Why don't I have anything better to do with my time?

You are so not alone on this one!!! I am just glad to see that i am not alone!! How awful, having a new baby and your son dying while coming to see his new sister! Ugh! Do you have kids? I do, so I am thinging that I have extra feeling for her..another thing i think about is she just lost all that weight to make her life better and now this....and I am trying to lose weight to make my life better....I feel the kinship.:cry

Please pals, don't let this one fade away until there are answers. I want to stay in the loop too and this is the best place for a variety of input and reports.

Thanks

How about an overdose of prescription drugs - either accidental or intentional?

The toxicology report won't be completed until sometime in October, according to MSN. I think that may be the thing that tells the tale.

they think that the combo of meds he was taking could have shut down his central nervous system..thats one theroy of course..

[socalgal3 4]

There was a guy on Entertainment Tonight or Access Hollywood or one of those shows lat night claiming he was the father of the baby. He was a photographer. I like Anna Nicole. She's so dumb, you gotta love her! HA! But seriously, having a baby and then losing a child within a few days is just tragic! The fact that he was on anti-depressants has been in the news, but I can't believe that had anything to do with it.

Hey guys, I just read this...(yes I'm a dork and obssessed with this case)

But, after forensic pathologist Cyril Wecht declared Monday that Daniel was taking prescription anti-depression medication when he died, the young man's movie partner has revealed he had been very ill.

David Giancola, the director of Smith's new movie 'Illegal Aliens' - which was produced by her son - tells In Touch magazine that Smith had been in intensive care for an elevated heart rate.

He says, "He was in the hospital for two or three days. He was really sick. He lost something like 28 pounds and had a constant stomach ache."

According to Giancola, Daniel seemed to have recovered but was still not fully fit when he flew to the Bahamas to be with his mother after she gave birth on September 7.

It has been suggested that Smith had been prescribed anti-depression medication after splitting up with his girlfriend.

I read today it was a combination of Ambien and Lexapro. It made his system toxic for some reason.

There is an alarming amount of deaths due to taking anti-depressants.

They are mind altering and some people just don't function properly..Smith prob didn't realize he mixed the drugs...so sad

The suicide rate (even though I know that is not what happened here) among teens taking antidepressants is staggering...we had 6 deaths in the local high school last year ...kids and antidepressants.:omg:

the whole thing is strange and Anna Nicole is requesting a 2nd autopsy like the first one wasnt bad enough, even if they find out what happened and who did it, it wont bring himback. the baby is cute and there is a blonde guy all over ET saying he is the babys father. so strange what a broad range of emotions from post pardum depression the elation/pain of birth and the sadness of death all you can do is say a prayer for everyone concered...

well thats only my opinion..
