The thing that bothered me most about her was the fact that she made the rounds to all the media outlets first and I too, also question why michael who had not spoken to her since april decided to call her on fathers day from feeling hot/cold. Why didn't he seek help right there in LA. If murry was his doc why would mike call her. That just don't make sense.
Watch the youtube video bgz posted. It should answer some questions.
And btw...the word "begged" didn't come from Nurse Lee's mouth. That's the word the media used to describe her accounts. I remember once she even corrected someone and said Michael was "asking" her, not so much "begging". Of course the way she describes it all indicates he was desperate....but I don't recall the word "beg" coming from her directly.
Thanks bgz for posting that transcript and the video. I will review the others Cherubim posted in a bit but for now I just wanted to make this post first.
I have some questions about this nurse too, as far as all the ppl she had contact with, like the guard she spoke to on Father's Day as well as who was it that referred her? But other than that there doesn't seem to be any indications that she had any connection to Murray as some are going around stating as if it were fact or proven somehow. So far, it hasn't. I think it's irresponsible to go about the board stating it as being true becuz folks who know even less might think it's been proven and it hasn't. This is how ppl build theories on erroneous info and come out with theories that don't make sound sense...to even themselves, imo.
As for why Michael didn't go to the hospital? Well, if he had gone there would have been questions. Perhaps he nor Murray wanted to have to answer those questions. If propofol isn't supposed to be used outside a hospital I doubt he or Murray wanted to have to explain that Michael may have been given some in his home. We don't even know whether Murray couldn't be found that day so Michael had to call around until he found someone else he trusted. Someone with a medical background who was able to help his symptoms and avoid a trip to the hospital.
Why would Michael take it again after the hot and cold thing? Good question. I would guess either it wasn't diprivan that caused the problem or Murray convinced Michael that whatever went wrong wouldn't happen again. Afterall, his job may have depended on him being able to give MJ that stuff. If he couldn't give it to MJ properly why would Michael keep him around for $150,000? He would be useless. Michael obviously hadn't had that kind of reaction before becuz he was concerned. If he honestly had diprivan in the past then he knew these symptoms weren't supposed to happen when done correctly. So it's possible he would try it again becuz he knew when done correctly he would be fine.
As for whether he took it beforehand and should have been knocked out, well, let's say these symptoms came to him after the drug was stopped and he was awakened...or worse, his body physically reacted while he was under and the doctor had to stop the drug and awaken him. May not have been the propofol, per se, but something else the doctor was giving at the same time that caused the reaction. So many scenarios.
I just hope the police were able to reconstruct what happened to Michael the week before he died. I feel they are trying to make this a "drug addict/doctor shopping" situation when in fact it could also be a reckless doctor situation. And by them focusing so much on trying to get all the doctors for their "addict" angle, they may not focus enough on the recklessless doctor angle. If Michael was in trouble on the Sunday before his death, I can't see how and why they would overlook investigating that as well. Who was on the phone with Nurse Lee? Surely that person would have something to tell about it...unless they aren't talking or went missing.
