A life saved by Richardson’s loss
A small good has come from the tragic death of Natasha Richardson. CNN is reporting an Ohio girl’s life was saved as the result of the publicity about head injuries.
Morgan McCracken, 7, was hit in the head with a baseball during a game with her family and seemed fine for two days after. She even earned an A on a spelling test, but news of her Richardson’s death prompted Morgan’s parents to wonder if things were OK.
That night, when Morgan began complaining of a headache, her parents took her to the ER. Doctors discovered the same injury as Richardson and rushed the girl to a children’s hospital by helicopter, a luxury Richardson didn’t have. Morgan had surgery and is now doing fine.
“(Our doctor) told us that if we hadn’t brought her in Thursday night, she never would have woken up,” Mr McCracken told CNN.
In related news, Liam Neeson returned to work late last week after his wife’s funeral services. Neeson was spotted sitting alone at the bar of the Hazelton Hotel in Toronto, where he’s shooting “Chloe” with Julianne Moore.
“It was so sad,” a source told the New York Daily News. “He looked like he was in an Edward Hopper print.”
Richardson’s sister, Joely Richardson, also returned to work last week. A rep for Neeson said the actor did return to work and “completed the movie.”
