Balbir suffers cardiac arrest, but he has been resuscitated. Also suffering from multiple organ failure, but apparently improving :scratchhead:

Balbir suffered a series of cardiac events after his first cardiac arrest, but not enough to finish him off.

Years ago there was Jamie Mitchell's death in Eastenders but as it was one of the B plot romances, they strung out the guy dying on life support for weeks or even months. Every episode or so you'd get an update. "He's really not well, he's even worse, he's on life support, he's got even worse than the last time, his health has decline even further" without somehow dying until they did the big People Crying in Hospital Scene around Christmas time.

 

Anyhow, I am reminded of it here.

From now on, I will put him in every future deadpool team in top position until he dies. If it's possible I'll pick him in the ABC deadpool under both B and S.

Lovers of French films will never forget him. I have seen  "Les choses de la vie" & "La grande bouffe" at least four or five times through the years.

Balbir hemodynamically stable, which usually implies death is not imminent. MRI scans did not find major brain damage, but only a small clot in the brain. Still in a coma.

 

Danger now comes from pneumonia, which got incredibily resistant to antibiotics.

I'm deeply touched by the death of one of my all-time-favourite German actresses: Irm Hermann.

In the 70s she rose to fame because of her workings with Rainer Werner Fassbinder.

Later she emancipated herself from Fassbinder and became a renowned and award winning actress in her own way.

She was 77 years old and died after a short illness.

:(
