    That is very tragic. At least she was taken and is at peace, and nobody has to spend the rest of their lives taking care of her. Just suffering broken hearts and asking how/why?

    RIP NATASHA, good luck on your next Journey and travel well ma'am. Sad ending for neeson family. Prayers for them


    u know life moves on in few days (difficult times) and in few months settling down without her, i am sure liam will appreciate his polk speakers, listening her voice to remember their life together in crispy sound. I bet this is hard on any actor/ actress losing their actor spouse, seeing them on movies and hear their voice everytime aired on tv. we, normal people do have homevideos but not on tv often.

    It is so sad, we just talked about his setup and saw how they could had enjoyed more time together watching movies at their home (Based on the picture, both were happy,cuddling, enjoying life together).
    I am 100% BORN DEAF and No I am not kidding! :D Why am I here? My wife's hearing! :p

    Heard on the way home that they took her off life support, very sad for Liam and the kids to come out here on vacation and go home like this. RIP.

    I don't want to derail, but have to ask the question - why did they fly her back to the US for treatment? Isn't Montreal a fairly populated / modern city - they don't have the ability to deal with this kind of stuff there?
