I just saw where the emergency landing that Prince made several days ago in Moline was due to an opiate overdose. This came from TMZ and sounded pretty credible.
If true, just curious If he would still be given a JW funeral, if that is what he wanted.
JW or otherwise, his send off will be awesome!
So sad to see people that have the whole world and find no real joy, no peace, and end up harming themselves. Curious phenomena in the world of 'stars'. Sad.🤔

I was just thinking of if another scenario played out where by they refused to comply with princes funeral arrangment but still took his money. The public backlash would be immense and I really don't think Wt is in a position to refuse his money.
If prince has given specific instructions as to his funeral e.g kingdom hall service. It will be interesting to see if they comply with his wishes and give in to public pressure. Also the content of the funeral service being a Wt advertising campaign.
The plausible story I heard was he needed a hip surgery and due to the extreme need for blood during the surgery, he refused it, and the hip pain was really bad. Makes sense that he would be taking pain meds due to refusing surgery. Just a story, but seems realistic to me.
Eccentric and odd people can sometimes be the most talented, if they allow their talent to shine through and not repress it.
I can see his eccentric side being drawn to the idea of separating himself from the "world" during his time off stage ( and then using the common JW double standard----not separating himself except when on stage, or even follinwing the "rules" of standard behavior).
Sounds to me like he overdosed on pain meds like Percocet which is an Opiate pain reducing drug that has been known to kill overtime. ie. stop the heart .
On June 30, 2009, an FDA advisory panel recommended that Percocet, Vicodin, and every other combination of acetaminophen with narcotic analgesics[4] be limited in their sales because of their contributions to an alleged 400 acetaminophen related deaths in the United States each year, that were attributed to acetaminophen overdose and associated liver damage.[5]
In December 2009, the Canadian Medical Association Journal reported a study finding a fivefold increase in oxycodone-related deaths in Ontario (mostly accidental) between 1991 and 2007 that led to a doubling of all opioid-related Ontario deaths over the same period.
Hydrocodone: Respiratory depression, extreme somnolence progressing towards coma, muscle limpness, cold and clammy skin, slow heart rate, low blood pressure, abrupt loss of heart function and death may occur.[2]
