Lil' Wayne almost kicked the bucket too some weeks ago.

Wayne was visited by Drake, Birdman
 and Nicki Minaj over the weekend while Young Money president Mack Maine blasted TMZ for writing stories suggesting that the MC was near death.

[b]Initially, it was reported that Wayne was in critical condition after suffering seizures and had to have his stomach pumped when doctors found high amounts of codeine in his system. Weezy suffered a number of seizures back in October
 and later told MTV News correspondent Sway Calloway that he was on medication
 to treat his condition.

Wayne has also spoken in the past about his well-documented addiction to syrup, the name for a concoction of prescription-strength codeine cough medicine and a soft drink. Syrup has a long history in the Southern hip-hop community and is blamed in the deaths of both DJ Screw and late UGK member love-vendor C.

The combination of a possible genetic predisposition and an addiction to syrup could be enough to set off seizures, according to Privitera. "Promethazine [one of the active ingredients in syrup] can trigger seizures in someone who is predisposed," he said of the drug, which is found in combination with codeine in prescription-strength cough syrups. "It has a non-specific effect on the brain and there's a complex interaction of chemicals in the brain that some of these drugs can interrupt."[/b]

From what Wayne has said, it sounds like he's on medication to treat the seizures, which Privitera said was good news. The problem, though, is that it's hard to tell with someone like Weezy if it is the predisposition to seizures that is kicking in, or if the promethazine is helping to trigger them.

I remember Heath Ledger's death, it was on January of 2008. . .

It touched me the most because he was so young, he was only 28.

Though officials said he might have been given an overdose of pills by his maid, the case was never investigated
