My teenage daughter is a huge fan and is on the verge of tears over this news. So unexpected. We really thought she'd make a full recovery and get home to her doggy soon. She was in the middle of a book tour, FGS.

RIP Carrie Fisher

She'll always be the Princess Leia in my mind.
Rest gently, Carrie !!

Deepest condolences to all who loved her !

Just found out

Her one woman show, on YT is poignant, funny, self-depreciating, authentic warm sharing the hell, she lived, sharing the road back to sanity (kinda)
,


Wishful Drinking is an autobiographical book by American actress and author Carrie Fisher, published by Simon & Schuster in 2008. Fisher's book was based on her one-woman stage show, which she developed with writer/director Joshua Ravetch. The show debuted at The Geffen Playhouse with Ravetch directing. It enjoyed a successful Broadway run and toured in other cities. In 2010, HBO filmed a feature-length documentary of the stage play.

you have to give it some time but once you there you are captivated its a learning experience --give it some time tho pls

Yeah I'd be on an aisle seat doing compressions while leaning to to the side. It's the breaths that would be tricky.
My son took a CPR course for the power company. He is a lineman apprentice. They don't teach breaths anymore! Wth???

The evidence showed that doing breaths didn't improve outcomes, and that delivering good quality chest compressions was the key intervention. That's for BLS in the field with non professionals. Obviously, in hospital, we use the ambu bag and ACLS protocols. If I were there and there was an ambu bag, of course I'd have someone using it while I did chest compressions.

Like many of the medical professionals posting, I did not feel the chances for a full recovery were good, considering the information we were given. A sad day indeed.

Carrie left this world way too early! Everyone loved her as Princess Leia, but she was also a brilliant writer. If you've never read Postcards From The Edge, pick it up sometime. You will laugh and cry.

"She was ultimately one of the most sought after script fixers in the business at the time, according to The Independent."

I'm basically wrecked by this. RIP Carrie. General Organa was my hero.

And I've got a "friend" schooling me on why posting photos of her as young Leia is more important that respecting Gen. Organa, and questioning why she's my hero. **** off.

Everyone is sharing pictures of Fisher when she was young, but let me show you the Leia that was the most important to me: General Organa

As to the pilot instructing the people performing CPR to be seated:

I don't know why this is surprising. Landings put passengers at risk-a known fact. A rough landing could throw the rescuer hard against any number of things, other passengers included. Then you've got two or more casualties. Liability would dictate that all FAA mandated instructions be given even in this scenario. The rescuer can make his own decision whether or not to comply, but you can bet that if the pilot didn't command all passengers be seated, and the rescuer is seriously injured, he or his family would probably sue the pilot and airline for not giving that person adequate notice of landing or some other similar claim.
