Here is a sad story for those of you who are American Pie fans. This is just another reason why drugs are bad. You would think that people would start to understand the damaging effects of filling your body with drugs and alcohol. I guess the problem comes when you get young stars who really haven't matured yet receiving big money for their movie roles.

I sure hope Natasha gets better.

Story Begins:
AMERICAN PIE star NATASHA LYONNE is reportedly fighting for her life in a New York City hospital, after being found with hepatitis C, a heart infection and a collapsed lung.

The New York Post reports that the missing actress has been found struggling to survive in the Beth Israel Hospital's intensive care unit.

The publication says that as well as the range of health problems she's battling, Lyonne was also found with track marks, and is undergoing methadone treatment, typically used to help heroin users. Her father AARON BRAUNSTEIN, who visited the 26-year-old actress a week ago, tells US TV show ACCESS HOLLYWOOD, "I read the article. I'm crying, actually. It's terrible. That's my little girl. It's a terrible tragedy. But she's gonna get better. We're all praying for her and she's a tough girl.

"As we see in the paper, she's probably with the wrong crowd, but the main thing she picked up is (hepatitis C) in Bulgaria (while shooting her 2001 movie THE GREY ZONE)."

And Braunstein is certain the New York Post will face legal action for exposing details of Lyonne's condition, explaining, "There's a confidentiality between patient, doctor and hospital, so all of this is gonna be probably a major lawsuit."

It's tragic seeing young people fall victim to narcotics. I hope she pulls through and recovers well staying sober. The choice is in her and everyone elses hands who choose to stray and experiment with drugs. Hopefully some people will smarten up and choose life over a tempary high or the fatal outcome of death.

No kidding. I hope she gets back to health, then fixes the problems associated with the health problems. Get counseling or whatever is needed.

Let's hope they all do.
