    The best thing Carrie has gong for her right now is her ornery personality. I've known a few people that have had a major health event occur where they are even in a coma before recovery. The one thing they have in common is they were all stubborn. She's the exact type of person that pulls through this type of event. She also has a lot to live for right now, so that always seem to help people pull through these types of things.

    Maybe she had economy class syndrome. And she's had a history of weight problems. I hope she makes a speedy and full recovery and takes control of her health like Samuel L. Jackson.

    Sadly, I think we can blame it (primarily) on drugs. Or one drug in particular. The same drug that probably just claimed the life of George Michael.

    However, cocaine is associated with a number of cardiovascular diseases, including MI, heart failure, cardiomyopathies, arrhythmias, aortic dissection, and endocarditis. http://circ.ahajournals.org/content/122/24/2558

    Of course, Carrie has taken other things, too, has battled a weight problem as you say, and used to be (still is) a smoker -- none of it good for cardiovascular health.

    Keeping sane and healthy in this world ain't easy.

    A brilliant lady. May she come through.

    Yeah, I saw a picture of her with what appeared to be a cigarette. Wake up call.

    Easily the number one cause is poor diet, with sedentary behavior, smoking and stress also contributing. Does she do coke?

    Oh, no. :(

    I think we all knew, hearing the details of the original incident, that it didn't look good for her. But everyone was praying for a different outcome.

    Tremendously sad to have lost such a funny, luminous lady and the first principal cast member -- the true royalty -- of Star Wars.

    2016 has been a woeful year for celebrity passings.

    May she rest in peace.

    I am sad and heart broken. I have always enjoyed seeing her at celebrations. I am so glad I got her to sign my Princess Leia standee back in 2012.
    RIP Carrie!

    So much has been said that I agree with, yet it can never be enough. Devastating.

    The more I learned about Carrie Fisher, and listened to her in interviews and panels, the more I admired and loved her. Such spirit and full of life, bringing joy to others and touching so many hearts. A talented and beautiful soul, so grateful to have her in my life, and glad that feeling was shared with so many others. Life is so precious, and she knew that and seemed to cherish every moment. Her love, sincerity, wit, humor, and perseverance in the face of adversity gave us all and continue to give us all something to aspire to; and she did a lot for others not only by her example but also by her advocacy, encouragement, kindness, and courage to shatter and remake norms and overcome personal weaknesses by boldly confronting them. Her star might have vanished from our world, but the light and the ripples of her life continue to spread and deepen. So many wonderful memories, this feels like losing another member of my family, and I feel so bad for her family and friends. :(

    In a way, she'll be with us, always.

    Thank you, Carrie, and rest in peace.
