Brittany Murphy's Death Could Have Been Prevented

As most of us have heard by now, actress Brittany Murphy died on December 20, 2009 after she collapsed in her shower. Today the coroner has released the results of the autopsy. They are saying that she has died from pneumonia. They have said that she did have some prescription medication in her system but that she died from the pneumonia.



They have said that had she went to a doctor her death could have been prevented. Which is true, pneumonia is a treatable lung infection. I have never personally had pneumonia, but my husband has. He was put on IV antibiotics and kept in the hospital overnight, and yes he survived!



I do wonder if she knew that she had pneumonia why not get treated. The antibiotics are expensive but they work. (And I am sure that she could afford it.) That is why I think that this whole thing is kind of fishy. Because someone with her status, such as being know to have an eating disorder and it has been rumored that she also had a drug problem, so I find it a little hard to believe that she truly died from pneumonia.



I do not however believe all the garbage about her husband being responsible for her death. I think that maybe some of Brittany's friends were jealous of their relationship and are now trying to get back at someone.



I feel really sorry for her husband and her family for people saying those rotten things at such a horrible time in their lives. I do however think that maybe there is a chance that the real cause of her death such as maybe her eating problem are being made less of then what they should be.
