I remember last hearing about her from being ill on celebrity rehab and having a seizure on that show. She looked like she was in constant agony. Shame that she leaves two kids behind. Her boyfriend had passed away earlier.

It is very sad that her life fell apart and she decided to end it.

Poor troubled 'idiots'? Nice.

I hung out with Cheyenne Jackson in his dressing room waayyyyyy before he tickled D2.

JungleRed, it's entirely possible to feel terrible for Mindy McCready and realize that Dr. Drew is a quack and to say so in a thread.

This is extremely sad. Her younger child is not even a year old and has already lost both of his parents to suicide. Unfortunately not everyone can overcome personal demons and illness/addiction.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

Just pointing out -- the article claims that the boyfriend (that died only a month ago) was originally considered a suicide but is now called "mysterious" and was/is being investigated.

I know nothing of this woman (I know nothing of country music) but from the sounds of it, she's had a long and rough go at it: she started an affair with Roger Clemens when she was 15? Yikes.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Talented and tormented in equal parts. Such a shame. I hope she'd found peace- it eluded her in this life.

Namo, I agree, but that's not what tiny said. I won't publish my personal thoughts on suicide here, but "smart"people do it just as "idiots" do it.

I'm saddened that her children will grow up as orphans and that they'll know, thanks to the internet, what kind of person their mother was. I would hate for them to find this thread ten years from now and read that someone, who never knew and never met their mother, called her an idiot. I'm sure there are worse things said on other sites, but still.

That's all I'm going to say about it.
