Michael Jackson heart problem

RoseGarden · #1 06-25-2009, 04:11 PM

Our local news had just announced that Michael Jackson was enroute to a Los Angelos Hospital due to cardiac problems.

He is listed as critical condition.

I thought he lived in another country?

Apparently, he experienced cardiac arrest. This is bad.

(He's been in Los Angeles rehearsing for the London O2 shows)

I enjoyed Michaels 70-80's music so much.

It is indeed sad that Farrah died today, and another legend could be passing also.

Of corse, family and freinds ALWAYS are more important, but so sad to see so many public figures leaving ---seems like all at once.

A little off the subject, but Patrick Swayze is another cheerished icon and seems to be fighting a tuff battle with Pancreatic cancer and of corse Michael Fox with the Parkingson (sorry bout the spelling)............

TMZ.com is reporting he has passed.

I'm shocked, I just knew those O2 dates wouldn't go ahead but I didn't think it would be because of anything like this.

Are TMZ generally reliable?

According to CNN, he's hospitalized w/ a cardiac arrest and alive.

chiliD · #7 06-25-2009, 05:19 PM

MSNBC reporting he's in a coma.

trackaghost · #8 06-25-2009, 05:21 PM

That's still pretty bad. Those O2 shows definitely aren't going ahead now! I imagine there were more than a few bets put on that.

UnwindedDreams · #9 06-25-2009, 05:21 PM

Is anyone hearing that he wasn't able to be revived?

jenniferuk · #10 06-25-2009, 05:25 PM

The latest (radio) news said that his heart had stopped and paramedics were unable to revive him,but no word on whether the hospital staff revived him. TMZ says he has passed but LA Times says coma.

The Los Angeles Times is reporting him dead.

UnwindedDreams · #13 06-25-2009, 05:28 PM

I cannot believe this.

estranged4life · #14 06-25-2009, 05:31 PM

NBC news confirmed he has died

RoseGarden · #15 06-25-2009, 05:35 PM

Yes, it's been confirmed he has died.

I hope the tabloids will just leave his family alone and let them grieve in peace. There will be loads of "stories" about this....................

I really enjoyed his music the most 70-80's. I loved watching him dance as he did the physically impossible.

Very sad ..............

This is a small wake up call to me and perhaps some others......REALLY love your family/friends as we don't know what the next day could bring..........
