natasha richardson dies??

Breaking news: Natasha Richardson, 45, the wife of Liam Neeson, dies today after a skiing accident at Mont Tremblant ski resort. She appeared to be fine after hitting her head, no bleeding, no symptoms. She then developed a headache, which eventually led to severe brain damage.

“I can only speculate, but it sounds like something we call the ‘talk and die’ syndrome,” said Dr. Steven Flanagan, director of Rusk Institute of Rehabilitation Medicine at New York University’s Langone Medical Center.

“What this implies is that someone hits their head and they are seemingly OK initially, but then they get a rapid collection of blood - usually called epidural hemorrhage - and that means bleeding between the skull and the brain.
