   And Postcards From the Edge.  It's strange why her mother said she was in ICU   
   and stable condidion.  Any human that goes without a heartbeat for 15 minutes   
   (what I heard on the news) doesn't have much of a life left.   
      
   I'm sorry she's gone, too, but as John Wayne said in the movie Hondo,   
   "Everybody gets dead".
