Default Tom Petty...

Tom Petty was found unconscious and not breathing in his Malibu home Sunday night after suffering a full cardiac arrest

Per TMZ: We're told after Petty got to the hospital he had no brain activity and a decision was made to pull life support.

That's so sad, he was only 66. I wonder if there had been any indication of cardiac problems. I guess it can happen to anyone. I love his music and enjoyed his XM channel and interviews. He will be missed.

TMZ reported that he has been removed from Life Support. Hmmm.

At any rate, I don't believe he is going to make it.

SUCKS.

Yeah, it's usually the kiss of death being put on life support

I don't know what to believe, but have read more than once that he is no longer with us. I'll just go with that.

TMZ has had a few updates, but now says he is on life support:

Quote:
1:35 PM PT -- Sources tell us at 10:30 Monday morning a chaplain was called to Tom's hospital room. We're told the family has a "do not resuscitate" order on Tom. The singer is not expected to live through the day, but he's still clinging to life. A report that the LAPD confirmed the singer's death is inaccurate -- the L.A. County Sheriff's Dept. handled the emergency.

12:30 PM PT -- We're told after Petty got to the hospital he had no brain activity and a decision was made to pull life support.
