I haven't read it Liz, have you complained to the Editor in Chief?

Bob, that's as maybe but this woman's comments do not help the family of Stephen or others who have died from SADS or in a similar way, so she is not speaking the truth with her comment which I highlighted.

Thanks Col, we all know how Gillian Jennifer suffered the loss of her Stephen and her whole family are affected by SADS

More publicity and funding for research and testing, is the way forward, not stupid remarks like Jan M made, she should apologise and pay money to the charity for SADS

Agree with you 110% Liz....12-15 'healthy young people' die from SADS related illnesses each and every week in this country alone. Stephen Gatley is most probably just another 'victim'

We all gotta go sometime, Liz, and we normally have no say in how, when or where it happens........

I am disgusted by the comments of Jan Moir in the D.M. who is casting aspersions on Stephen Gately's lifestyle in relation to his sad and untimely death. She said "Healthy and fit 33-year-old men do not just climb into their pyjamas and go to sleep on the sofa, never to wake up again."
This woman needs to learn about SADS as regrettably her statement is completely untrue.

The woman is an unfeeling idiot.
