Anna Nicole Smith collapsed in her hotel room at the Hard Rock Cafe and Casino in Hollywood, Fla., and was rushed to a hospital on Thursday. A Hollywood, Fla., fire department spokesman told MSNBC TV that the actress was unresponsive when the rescue unit arrived on the scene.
Sources confirmed to Access Hollywood that Smith was transported to Memorial Regional Hospital shortly after 2 p.m. EST on Thursday. Access Hollywood also is reporting that Smith was intubated at the scene.
Officials told the Miami Herald, "it does not look good."
Birkheads are still at the negoiation table, judge rules.
No it hasn't.
Why are they coming back?Where is the will?
'Youre done with me Doc!'
Breaking for lunch. Doc has been dismissed. Believe they said "buckle swab".
I am sooo lost. LOL! They are taking DNA from ANS? to prove that she is the babys mother? What about all the dads DNA?
I think Judge Cohen said they were coming back at 2:30 this afternoon after the belt swab DNA test.
person being tested is swabbed with a soft cotton buccal (pronounced buckle) swab
You're right it was 'buckle swab.'
Appears they are taking further DNA from ANS to be sure they don't have to exhume the body later. Judge wants that issues resolved today. Regarding the potential father's DNA, no discussion on that as far as I know.
Oh, that's buccal - inside the mouth/cheek - cells.
buccal swab
Would that be "buccal", as in refering to the inside of the cheek?
Spelled buccal, it is the soft cloth that is swabbed inside the person's mouth.
What kinds of samples are tested?
Samples are taken from inside the cheek. This is called a “Buccal Swab.” This is a non-invasive procedure and takes only a few minutes.
Is the Buccal Swab test as accurate as a blood test?
Yes. The DNA found on a buccal swab is the same as in your blood.
Who needs to be tested?
In most cases, a sample is collected from the mother, child, and alleged father. However, we do provide single parent tests and testing of multiple children or alleged fathers.
Unless stern legally married anna, next of kin is her mother.
What, HKS's *team* didn't jump up and volunteer his DNA? LOL - it's with the will he "left in his other pants."
And this swab determines half of the baby's DNA which is then matched with the "father's" DNA.
