This morning, you can go anywhere and find the stories written about the release of the autopsy results and the fact that Dr. Perper has determined there to be no foul play and no suicide. CNN has this report and TMZ has no less than 12 posts about it since the announcement two hours ago. The 13th is a post announcing “two hours to go” until the announcement. If you google “Anna Nicole Smith autopsy results”, as of right now, you’ll get 965 results. Rather than try link you up to all the TMZ posts, I’ll just link you to the tag for Anna Nicole Smith at their site.

Picking through all those stories, you’ll find that they all tell the same tale. She did have an infection, caused by an injection she received passing through an abcess under the skin and causing the infection to enter her body. Apparently, despite the 105 degree fever she was suffering, the antibiotics were working as the infection was not found in her blood and so the infection was not the cause of her death. There were no illegal drugs found in her system, but the legal (prescription) drugs in her system numbered nine. From the article, Drug Combo Killed Anna;

“Dr. Perper concluded was combined drug intoxication, including anxiety and depression medication, valium, ativan and antihistamine. She also had chloral hydrate, which was the major component in her death.”

In addition, it was noted on CNN’s Headline News Channel, that Anna was also taking a Human Growth Hormone, somewhat of a fad among celebrities these days, for the reported benefits of staying younger looking longer. This was said not to be a contributing factor. It was also reported that Methodone was found in her bile, meaning she had not taken if for several days prior to her death, thereby also ruling it out as a contributing factor.

So it’s been decided that she simply accidentally took too much sleep medication, and that perhaps all the doctors prescribing the medications to her did not know about the others.

Here’s the problem with that.

We’ve all been sick with a really bad flu or something. We all know that once a person is as physically sick as she was, there ain’t no damn way we’re getting up to get our own meds. She had a fever of 105 degrees, was vomiting earlier and was bedridden.

Someone had to have been doling out the meds to her.

Why is anyone considering this accidental?

She may be a person everyone loves to make fun of. She may be a person people call names and love to hate, but she deserves, like anyone else would, the truth to come out about how someone failed her and in failing her, that someone also robbed Dannielynn of a mother. I’m not saying it was murder and it’s being covered up. No… there will be others who will do that. I’m saying someone failed her miserably and she deserves for that to come out. So does Dannielynn.

Anna wanted to be remembered. She has gotten her wish.

I hope though, that she ends up remembered because the circumstances of her death and life have taught someone else out there, that money and fame and celebrity don’t buy happiness, and that prescription drugs can kill you just as easily as heroin or meth.
