RIP Heath Ledger

Yes, as an Aussie, I really feel for his family here in Australia - they probably found out like everyone else - on the TV. I wish Michelle , Matilda and Heath's family back home all the best at coming to terms with the tragedy.

This came as a complete shock to me. Really hit home since I just watched one of his movies this past weekend.

Unbelievable. My heart aches for his family. I have been anxiously awaiting for The Dark Knight to hit theaters and was absolutely blown away at this news.

It's very eerie how his character looks similar to the late Brandon Lee in The Crow.

Apparently he died of pneumonia?

Very very sad. I heard on the way to work and couldn't believe it. Another Aussie lost to us and so young... his poor parents & family. My heart goes out to them.

He was an awesome actor.

From what I read, he died of an OD on prescription medication. But you know how these things flip-flop.

ACTOR Heath Ledger, who was found dead in New York today, had been taking a prescription drug that has been caused bizarre and potentially dangerous reactions for hundreds of Australians.

The three bottles of prescription pills found in Heath Ledger's Manhattan apartment in SoHo contained antidepressants and Ambien, a police source told PageSix.com.

NYPD Deputy Commissioner Paul Browne said that there were three prescription bottles found, all in Heath Ledger's name.

The actor, from Perth who was found dead of an apparent overdose today at the age of 28, had spoken in the past about having trouble sleeping.

I was both shocked and saddened when I heard the news. Another young and very talented actor lost to us. The death of any young individual is always a tragedy.

I was also shocked to see this. He seemed like a very genuine person when I saw him on TV in interviews. How sad for his daughter...:frown: I lost my dad at the same age, so I feel for her.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
