My grandmother was older and sicker (diabetes, various cancers in the past), and had her hips replaced and did fine. It just depends on many things, I guess.

There will be lawsuits galore by the daughter Melissa. I bet there will be an investigation into these clinics in NY.

As Joan Rivers’ prognosis grows more dire each day, RadarOnline.com has learned that medical investigators are growing ever closer to uncovering the real reason the healthy 81-year-old was sent spiraling into a coma after a standard medical procedure. And according to insiders, they believe the culprit could be a fatal dose of Propofol — the same drug that killed Michael Jackson after he was administered a lethal dose.

“Certainly, they suspect the anesthesia was the issue, based on conversations between the staff and city medics,” a source close to the investigation told Radar.
Staff at the Yorkville Endoscopy Clinic told NYC officials that Rivers stopped breathing just as they were putting her under anesthesia for a routine throat endoscopy procedure, a source said.

According to the investigation insider, paramedics arrived at the clinic on the morning of August 28 to find doctors frantically trying to shove a tube down Joan’s throat to get her......

Yes it does...but her operation was the esophagus...breathing area....not her knees. Also the length of time under matters as well.

Wow, that would have been hilarious.

I know Johnny Carson never forgave her.

Without telling him, she accepted the host job on a rival network. In essence going up against him?

Don Rickles tries too hard to be funny, and is sometimes funny, and most other times, not.

Rickles does insults to get laughs, and that's about it. Others can use insults in a joking manner, and they end up being funnier.

Yep, read something that said Johnny held a grudge until he died & never talked to her again. She tried for years to mend the fued and he would hang up on her, return letters etc..

**I’m sure Holder will jump all over the clinics once he’s done stirring the race pot over in Ferguson. NOT!

Johnny Carson was a mean, vindictive, skirt chasing a hole. Read that book on him by his cloest associate.

[ She said something that upset “the one”.....
Didn’t she out him and the Wookie a while back, causing mass hysteria in Hollywierd?

Something about everyone knowing he was a homo and the Wookie was an “it”. ]

The probability of this being the cause is near zero, but it is not exactly zero either....

"When doctors use the term “making comfortable” as opposed to “condition improving” it is a matter of time."

Or, when they use the term "grave."

As I kept hearing Princess Diana's condition was "grave", I figured she was close to death or already dead.

Princess Diana died 8/31/97 (seventeen years ago) age 36.

The Netflix doc on him basically doesn’t pull any punches. He was in essence a lonely guy much having to do with his mom. Smoking was more important than anything and he basically couldn’t breathe in his retirement years.

The Hamas lovers are glad that she is dead but you know what..they will get theirs one day as my Mom would say F them!! Many celebrities have died throughout the years and its been very sad but this one hurts, a lot..a good woman, strong supporter of Israel, some things she said were considered “Controversial” but she NEVER apologized for the things that she said..she was a good human being..its hard to laugh now but whenever I see her quotes you can’t help but laugh
