Had not slept for ‘154 straight hours’ before death

Posted by | April 24, 2016 18:03 | Filed under: Media/Show Business News Behaving Badly


In spite of taking sleep-inducing painkillers Prince had not slept for 154 hours when he died.

As the star ’s family gathered at his home for a memorial 24 hours after his private cremation, his brother-in-law told how the singer had not slept for six and a half days before he was found dead in a lift.

Maurice Phillips, who is married to Tyka Nelson, the Purple Rain star’s sister and only full blood relative, said: “I was with him just last weekend.

“He worked 154 hours straight. He was a good brother-in-law.”

Friends fear he may have been overprescribed drugs by a dodgy doctor.

      It depends. Some doctors are more than happy to peddle prescriptions for profit and to hell with the ethical responsibility to do no harm. The ultimate responsibility is with the user, but the doctor can sure as hell be an accessory.

        In the 70’s, a doctor use to prescribe pills they called t’s and blues. Those pills killed many people, during that era.

          My dad broke his neck twice in the service (not the kind of accomplishment you would strive for,) and the VA prescribed meds for him. He would travel with what was probably a makeup case from a set of luggage full of his meds. Coulda had a week-long party on the contents, if I were so inclined. Not exactly what I would describe as patient-centered care unless patient means junkie.

    I can’t remember where I heard someone on the news yesterday say that the “autopsy was inconclusive.” I have not heard or seen that reported anywhere else. That would certainly not be true if he had drugs in his system when he passed on.
    I wish there was less chatter about the cause of his death until we actually find out the truth, if we do?

    The results will take several weeks before a conclusion is made but initial results showed conditions resembling a drug overdose.
