For some unearthly reasone, the unfortunate demise of Heath Ledger has me sensing that his death is a message. At least perhaps a focus on mental health issues in our world. Especially for actors. Actors are artists. Artists are sensitive beyond the norm.

There is no doubt that Heath Ledger was a phenominal actor and will remain as one of the worlds gifts.
Reported findings state that there was no trace of any illegal drugs in his system. There may not have been anything in his system at time of death but clearly he had been taking drugs. One only has to look at photographs over the past couple of years to see the changes his face had undergone. A more drawn look around the mouth with creases of skin clearly visible along with some changes around his eyes lead one to speculate that he was ingesting Crystal Meth. A persons face does not dramatically change, losing the fatty layer under the skin, without help and CM is the one drug that seems to this at a quick pace. May Health’s soul radiate upon his family filling a void in their hearts and may his legacy as a film star be solidified in Hollywood’s history.

To anyone who worked with Heath on the TDK or the Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus sets: I am so grateful that I hear more and more testimonies from level headed people that recently worked with him so we’re not only hearing from those anonymous (paid) “sources” that don’t hesitate to smear his good name!
I am together with a lot of like minded people in the process of contacting the media companies involved in the smearing campaign. We would like to hear from people working on those sets, or who from some other reason came in close contact with Heath last year. Please write to me at leaveheathalone@hotmail.com

It is so easy for people to come up with this crap. I don’t believe a word of it. They are trying to make him into some obsessed junkie. I am glad the people that worked very close to him are saying it isn’t true. Leave the guy alone,he’s dead.

I finished filming ‘The Imaginarium…’ with Heath Ledger on 20th January and during all that time he was nothing but professional – working into the small hours in the freezing cold, clad only in satin, fighting flu, doing his own stunt work, chilling out with the crew, viewing the rushes with Gilliam.
There was no star system and Heath was part of the crew, helping out and working damned hard.
Besides that, Heath was caring and friendly and if you didn’t know him you quickly grew to love him because he had a genuine way of connecting with people.
I was totally enchanted by Heath’s performance and it was a pure joy to be around him.
