    It's a sad thing when a doctor, who is suppose to be a professional, is having his picture taken with an unconscious patient. Celebrity or not, this is disgusting.

    • @dmann1115

      I agree, if it's true. One wouldn't expect that behavior from an upper east side clinic accustomed to serving famous and wealthy patients. It's reminiscent of what happened to George Harrison in the days before he died, when a doctor shoved a guitar in front of him to autograph for the doctor's son. This was also in New York. George reportedly said "I can't really sign my name anymore," yet signed it anyway. Soon after his death, his lawyers promptly sued the doctor and demanded the guitar back as well, as I recall. Fortunately they had a very enlightened, practical-minded judge who encouraged the parties to reach a quick and just settlement that was beneficial to the estate and his family, thereby keeping the publicity to a minimum.

    I had the wonderful opportunity to work with Joan Rivers. At first I was afraid, at first sight she made me feel so comfortable and addressed me by my name.
    She was amazingly beautiful facial surgery and all. Just beautiful inside and out. She asked me so many questions, a very personable soul. We talked a lot.
    After her concert she went back stage and signed autographs and talked to all her fans waiting to meet her.
    She came back into the dressing room and said, “ my fans are everything to me, I owe them, after all without them I would not be doing what I 💕 love.” I would be unemployed!!!
    She is my most favorite celebrity to ever work with. I will always cherish that evening as I don’t get excited about celebrities.
    Joan you will never be forgotten only missed.❤ rest in heaven beautiful soul.

      We will all miss Joan because of many reasons. She could have avoided the acid reflux by increasing the enzymes in her stomach because you have acid reflux because you don't have enough stomach acid and it causes gas to form and acid is belched up into your esophagus. If you have enough stomach acid you won't have that problem. Don't let a doctor give you something to decrease your stomach acid because you need more, not less.

    It’s incomprehensible that there was no backup in place for an 80+ year old woman. I was in my mid 60s having oral surgery and there was an oxygen canister in the corner, I had a heart monitor on my finger and a blood pressure monitor on my arm. In northern Virginia, not chi chi New York. Melissa is 100% right…this was preventable and I hope they are no longer able to practice medicine. She was an icon who put her life in their hands and lost.

    Melissa,

I had the joys of meeting her and she was gracious and kind. Totally careless and accountability is in order.

    • @200991602
      @200991602 9 років тому +15

      MrQbenDanny These clinics are so bogus. The best place to have procedures like this, is a hospital. They advertise themselves as fast and time saving, but that can bring on much tragedy, no one can do a fast procedure, it's too dangerous. Or to be taking selfies, that is sickening. This place must be closed down forever, and never be allowed to reopen.

    • @dmann1115
      @dmann1115 8 років тому +4

      I can't help thinking Joan was likely well aware a hospital would be safer but preferred the clinic, thinking it would be more private. Celebrities trying to keep away from paparazzi and the like have to make difficult decisions that can lead to tragic consequences. From Princess Dianna, who literally died trying to flee paparazzi, to Prince, who, being so very private and shy, chose to leave a hospital after only three hours, against doctors' wishes that he stay for 24 hours. Then he stayed away from both hospitals and qualified clinics just minutes away from his home, preferring to wait on a doctor to fly in from the west coast, which ended up being fatal for him - he literally ran out of time. Very sad.

    • @MrQbenDanny
      @MrQbenDanny 8 років тому +2

      +D Mann You make an excellent point, and you cite perfect celebrity examples where this might be an issue. I don't think it applies to Joan who was paparazzi friendly and were helpful in her line of work which was mocking them, whether in Fashion Police or red carpet premieres. The paparazzi adored her. I met her once in my building lobby and she was surrounded by many tenants and she was so classy and sweet to all, very different from her patented stage persona. A unnecessary tragedy, she had so much more life in her. Joan the Great.

    • @dmann1115
      @dmann1115 8 років тому

      (The paparazzi loved Amy Winehouse too, there's a youtube video showing her bringing out mugs of tea for them from her home, late at night. Ditto my earlier example of Di.) No, the point isn't really whether they like a celebrity or not. Few celebrities want to draw attention at all times, positive or negative. Would you want press waiting for you to step outside after you have any kind of outpatient procedure? Can kind of get in the way.
      Absolutely she had much more life in her. Powerhouse! She did some amazing things: hosted the Tonight Show beautifully, survived her husband's sad death and financial loss, succeeded as a businesswoman and entertainer, and beat everybody to win twice on Celebrity Apprentice - kicked ass after they fired her daughter the first time around.
      As a comic, she's not unlike Don Rickles. Only he didn't have his own shows or sell jewelry on TV. He's way past her age. Nobody is saying he should stop working and die, are they?

      It was so much slander coming from racist and Republican America that why would they accused Mr. Obama of this? All the slanderous lies that Mr. Trump was accusing Mr. Obama of, before he was President would have cause his death. What Mr. Obama exposed of white-America is that their Elders still teach their children hatred towards people of color. Which causes their envy and jealousy to kick in. If White people had any honesty in them they would admit Mr. Obama would have been a great President with the help of the US government. Nevertheless, he still was better and more intelligent than Mr. Trump by a long margin.

    Most surgical suites have cameras. I worked in a hospital for over 23 years and I can tell you that stuff like this happens. Sometimes Doctors/Surgeons/ nurses act VERY unprofessionally. I also firmly believe that ALL endoscopic procedures should be done in a HOSPITAL setting, not at a minor facility like a lot of them are .....including colonoscopies. A lot of folks have narrow airways and run into issues with the anesthesia and most of these place do not have crash carts.

    Melissa, I was born in 1962 to a beautiful woman with strength and determination and devistating flaws. She is still alive and vibrant. She torments me daily and, because of your openess and joy in your own mother, I cherish every moment I have with her. Life is never perfect. Life is never painfree. Sometimes, however, I feel I live the life my mother wants for me. Many blessings to you and all of yours.

    I used to go and use free wifi in venue, and saw Joan Rivers meeting fans, after gig. she had women who seemed like had some kind of motor problem, in stitches and was really making going out of her way to make her laugh, calling after her as she leaving, causing much fun.

    This is so sad about Joan Rivers no matter how long ago this was.
    My mom died Nov 22,2017 after being treated for Meningitis.
    They didn't know which one she had.
    Fungal , bacterial , or viral so treated her for all three.
    She never got better.
    She had shortness of breath, dizziness afterwards and died a month later.
    She was 64 years old.
    We didn't have an autopsy so I don't know what killed her..
    They said it was an interruption of blood flow to her heart but months before her heart exam came back fine.
    To this day we still don't know what killed my mother.
    Stories like Joan's and my mom are more common then people might think.

    Really sad, I miss Johan Rivers so much and oddly, in the past couple of weeks been watching YT videos of her stand up - I love her sense of humor and will miss her dearly.

    RIP - we will not forget what you contributed, especially the time you’ve decided to expose the disgusting corruption surrounding you.
    I put faith in your daughter to carry the torch, perhaps we can defeat these criminals.

    I Miss Your Mom and my Mom but My Mother died in the Hospital from Heart Failure 8 months ago just as your Mom Did. Only I had just gotten out of the Hospital and couldn't attend Her Celebration of Life. I can't believe it. So, I hope you were able to be with your Mom. It kills me because of this. My Prayers are with you and your Family. My tears have not stopped.
