Poor Robin Williams! May you rest in Peace. I'm REALLY and TRULY sad to see a life cut so short when, if Robin had been healthy and free of his demons, he might still be with us.
I offer condolences to his wife and children, for they have to gather up the sad and painful memories and get on with their own lives. Unfortunately, we have seen that the social media fanatics want to deny even that to a family steeped in grief for the loss of their father and husband.
We all want to pass into the afterlife easily and without pain and suicides shock our senses of reason, for, to many, it is a coward's way out. We now know that Robin had been tortured by the onset of Parkinson's Disease, and that the depression associated with that affliction, added to his already depressed state of mind, seems to have pushed him over the edge. Poor man, but, hasn't Michael J. Fox been living with that terrible disease and its depressions for over the last 20 years? All who knew Robin and were close to him now are faced with the "why?" questions...why didn't he confide in us?...why didn't he talk it out, as many do in group therapy sessions? Unfortunately, we will never know.
Great actor and comedian, I grew up watching him. The most fun was watching his interviewers' reactions, you never knew what was going to come out of him.
There's a fantastic interview here at Marc Maron's WTF podcast with Robin. Very touching, and funny at the same time. Some NSFW language, but I doubt anyone will mind today.
