That's what I thought when I heard that help had arrived just hours too late - why was he allowed to be left alone in that condition, when he'd already overdosed just a week earlier? If you are having to take that amount of pills you are constant risk of overdose. It's just too sad to think about really.

But then it's likely he didn't want someone with him 24hours/day, and it does sound as though the people close to him were doing everything they could to help, it just wasn't quite enough.

Highly addictive painkillers and the frequency with which they are prescribed is a horrid problem. I can't help but feel blame towards the pharmaceutical companies that are making so much money from these drugs - and they must be aware of how many lives they are wrecking.
