"I think she died of "Broken Morals". This should be a lesson to some of you. Straighten your life out before it's too late."
There may be some truth to what you say, Boss Jock 1947, but I find it a little harsh and judgmental. Perhaps she had fallen off the wagon, and that contributed to her respiratory failure, but if so, I haven't heard.
I had a good friend who died just a little older than that (46) of respiratory failure following a lung infection. She was physically healthy, in a monogamous relationship, and didn't do drugs. She was an emotional high stress person, drank a little too much (about a six pack of beer a day), and smoked a lot. So her bad habits probably contributed to her death. But she was a good person, had a lot of life ahead, and didn't deserve to die.
I'll give Darian the benefit of the doubt, too.
I basically came away with that opinion from everything she wrote on her My Space page. It reminds me of Randi Rhoads. Confused, delirious, overly aggressive, somewhat narrsistic, and apparently morally bankrupt. Call me judgemental. Maybe. I just see a very troubled person who never grew up and take on personal responsibility but i guess i'll be damned on the SF board for that.
Nevertheless...RIP Darrian...let's hope anyway.
PS: Just curious...does the drunk driver who slaughters a family of 4 and dies himself too deserve to die? I say YES.
