I was about to sleep this afternoon when I heard the news from the television that actor Heath Ledger was found dead in his apartment in Manhattan, New York. Though I was sleepy still, I then managed to went outside and was shocked with what i saw. I never really expected that he passed away so soon. Just week ago, when i watched his movie Brokeback Mountain (via the internet), which I can say, he did a very well acting job.
The cause of his death is still unknown, though there are sleeping pills that were found near his dead naked body on the floor.
According to the news:
The body was found naked and face-down on the floor of his bedroom by a housekeeper about 3.30pm Tuesday (7.30am Melbourne time).
”There were pills within the vicinity of the bed,” Mr Browne said.
But he stressed that pills were not scattered around Ledger’s body, as had been previously reported.
“There were some prescription medications that included sleeping pills,” he said.
The 28-year-old actor, who had reportedly been ill with pneumonia, had an appointment for a massage at the apartment, which is believed to be his home in Soho in Manhattan.
The housekeeper went to tell Ledger the masseuse had arrived and found him naked and unconscious at the foot of his bed.

May you rest in peace Mr. Ledger, farewell to you…
