GiGiHi Eric,
Thank you so much for taking the time to answer me.
First let me say congratulations to you about appearing on The Cleaner, I like that
show. I hope you will be on more than twice. I will make sure to put it on the DVR
so I do not miss it no matter what happens.
I totally agree with you that if you are not doing the same(which is very bad in and of itself) and someone you know is
using, you should intervene and do everything you can to help.
I am in no way saying that anyone knew Heath was or was not using and could have
made a difference. I have found in most cases if they want to go, they will go no
matter what we say or do. You could be more successful if they have already tried
and saw the hurt and pain they have caused others.
If it is a recreational thing we can try to intervene but again we may not always be
successful. We can't fault ourselves for that. I have had 2 friends die from drugs,
alcohol and depression. I don't believe either one could have been stopped. My
girlfriend hung herself while her children sat in the living room watching TV. Her
8 year old son found her and could not get her down from where she was hanging
The links below show the type of odd behavior that Heath exhibits,
maybe it's his nature or he was nervous or tired.
Stressed from playing such an intense roll as the Joker and getting so into it.
Maybe he had a death wish. Saying after having Matilda it would easier to die is an
odd statement.Who knows, he had it all.
I look forward to seeing you on The Cleaner.
God has Blessed you and Eliza for fighting to be where you are today.
I pray that he will always be with you and your family
HERE ARE A FEW YOUTUBE VIDEOS SHOWING A LITTLE
BIT OF THE ODD BEHAVIOR HEATH WAS EXHIBITING. I AM NOT SURE OE LONG THEYE WILL BE THERE

This was such a loss of such a gifted actor.. ERIC I am sure you wish you could have helped him in some way ..BUT how does one know when one is going to die really.. He wanted to live. he said so himself. It saddens me to think his death was because of a drug overdose. How many others came "THAT CLOSE" and lived. it is like the user cheats with death.. If one person is saved because of the intervention of others That is a good thing.. It is the loved ones who are left behind after his death that suffer..
Although I had seen most of the videos you have posted Gigi Thank you for posting them again..

There are so many interviews. He was very popular and though I haven't seen Dark Knight yet I am sure he and Eric were our favorites
The interview where he talks about it being easier to die now because Matilda would be carrying him on is strange to me.

I am not sure I should be writing this, but it is all over the web.
Not that I "really know the truth" I have read a lot about Heath
and maybe I shouldn't talk about him since he is gone. I am not trying to make it seem like he was a bad person but this article said that he was a Manic Depressive and He had stopped abusing alcohol and drugs only a year ago. It went on to say how depressed he was over his separation. It went on to show the interview where Heath actually says " I look at death a lot differently now" and the interviewer said how is that, Heath answered " It would be a lot easier to die now because Matilda would carry on for me"
There is also a lot of talk of Heath's prescription drug use and other drugs from the Ol--n girls bringing him a lot.
I will pray for Heath that he is with the Lord in heaven, as I am sure he is, out of pain......emotional pain.....which can many times be worse than physical pain. I know that kind of pain and would rather have physical pain any day.

Hi GIGI,
That was so sweet of you to post the picture of Heath as the Joker.
He will be missed . He was a fine Actor, and he was too young to die.
I also hope he is with our Lord, and no longer in emotional pain.
Thanks for those wonderful words.

That was a wonderful painting of Heath as the Joker. Who was the artist??Anyone know??
GiGiHe replied to Darya and she in turn passed Eric's answer on to us.For some reason I could not post a reply to his comment in that thread and so I started this thread.
If you click on to this link you will see where this began. I should have replied after Darya's comment from Eric but had trouble so I started this one.
Click on to this link and you will see how this started.
