dead Gary Coleman

[Phantom 2,533]

He's still alive and has fallen on hard times. I think he's had depression and other health problems . I have on my DDP list

 

Gary Coleman is still as obnoxious as ever. He's more likely to be killed by a disgruntled fan as he dislikes signing autographs

Yes I've heard about that too. That was another reason for my piking him. Isn't there meant to be some sort of curse on Diff'rent Strokes? I know Dana Plato died young

Dana Plato ended up commiting suicide after she couldn't get any more work when the show ended

She starred in a good bit of porn before overdosing on heroin.

He's now been arrested and bailed following a dometic incident involving his wife. Great mugshot!

what I would like to know... did Gary really have a kidney transplant or not? if so, is it that his body is rejecting them?

PS I think he needs his own thread now.

 

[Your wish is my command -- MH]

[Rotten Ali 600]

Well done MH for starting this thread.

 

Just did a bit more digging. Said that Gary has been a two-time recipient kidney transplant patient. Now it's my understanding that it's harder to make a good tissue match with black people since their DNA is more kind of mixed-up and diverse. Now even if he has had two transplants, that's soon going to be no better than having a single good one if he continues to drink to any degree.

Have you guys heard this? This is crazy.

 

So you know how Gary Coleman went to jail last week for a misdemeanour failure to appear warrant? OK, so he was basically rotting away in jail for a week while his mugshot was making rounds on the web. This mugshot has been everywhere and it’s quite scary and sad. So much so that one Utah business man decided he couldn’t bare the thought of the Diff’rent Strokes actor sitting in a cell anymore and he fronted his bail. Yup, Gary Coleman’s bail was paid by a fan. He even offered the actor a ride home from jail.

 

Jarrod Clarke of Draper, Utah told Gossip Cop why he decided to throw down the funds to release Gary:

 

“If you see his mugshot, I mean, what a sad face… To see that he was sitting in there – and he’d been there for 27 hours – and bail was only $1,700, I thought somebody probably ought to do something.”

 

Gary’s wife immediately called Jarrod to thank him for his generosity and Gary’s back at home awaiting his next court date.

 

There are a whole list of reasons why this story is beyond sad (why the hell doesn’t Gary Coleman have a measly 17 hundred bucks? Why wouldn’t his wife bail him out?), but let’s just hope that it turns out OK for Jarrod. The guy put himself on the line for someone he grew up loving on TV and if Gary doesn’t show up to his court date, that would be a huge slap in the face.

I'd say this Jarrod would probably get a good return for his $1700 with the established media outlets. Has Max Clifford contacted him yet?

[Rotten Ali 600]

Oh and his Wiki page says:

 

He suffers from a congenital kidney disease causing focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (an autoimmune destruction and alteration of the kidney), which halted his growth at an early age, leading to a small stature (4 ft 8 in; 1.42 m). He has undergone two kidney transplants, one in 1973 and one in 1984, and requires daily dialysis.

 

Question I have still. Was the second opperation a removal of the first transplant? or was it his second original one out swap?

 

Guess he will never be off anti rejection drugs, and they must have a toll in other ways too.

IANA physician and that medical jargon doesn't mean much to me, so take the following with the obligatory grain of NaCl.

 

If our hero needs dialysis daily, it means that his kidneys don't do enough work, if anything at all. It seems to me those two transplants didn't do much good, whether the second transplant replaced the first one or the second original kidney.

 

Anti-rejection drugs generally work by suppressing the immune system. This implies that the patient becomes more vulnerable to microbial and viral infections. As a result he may become ill from infections that in healthy people cause no or few symptoms. he also is more likely to die from more serious infections. To make matters worse, dialysis can be a pathway into the body for such infections. That said, while his quality of life is diminished, such a regime can keep him alive for a long time.

Gary Coleman has been rushed to hospital after suffering from another seizure.

 

He's probably just overdoing it with drugs, unless maybe he has a brain tumour?

You'd need a fair amount of brain to house one of them, right?

 

Drugs, then.

[BrunoBrimley 86]

Still terribly ill, Coleman was unable to visit Canada, the country where the Olympics just ended, he failed to go to The Temple Bar in Canadaigua:

 

"Coleman was supposed to be at the Niagara Street bar for a meet-and-greet, as well as stand-up cpomedy performance...with his new hard-rock band Big G Willis"

 

Coleman a no-show, audience says. "what you talkin' 'bout {{there's no Big G}} Willis?

I still think it's something worse than drug problems.

The 'mystery illness' is seemingly a serious head injury after a fall; he's apparently in a critical condition.

[Death Watch Beatle 41]

I was reading about the troubled life of Diff'rent Strokes co-star Dana Plato which ended in 1999 after an overdose. Her son, whom she lost to her husband at their divorce, topped himself a couple of weeks ago. The Diff'rent Stokes curse continues . . .

 

DWB

[Garn2 34]

Many now reporting he's on life support and in a coma.

 

The 4ft 8in actor was said to have undergone emergency surgery on arrival.

 

But Alcantar dismissed these reports, claiming his client was too sick for surgery.

 

'At this critical moment, we can only ask for your thoughts and prayers for Gary to make a speedy and full recovery,' he said.

 

Doesn't sound good.
