Blind gossip site are reporting this :

You are not being told the truth about what happened to this singer.

Here is one lie that was just debunked by someone we know who works in a relevant health care capacity:

The statement that his people made about him not staying at the hospital because there were no private rooms available is a lie!

It’s not a big city hospital, and things were quiet that night they brought him in. There definitely WAS a private room available that night and he was told that. Even thought the doctors recommended that he stay so that he could be monitored, he said, “I don’t want to stay.”

So the statement about why he left the hospital was a lie. A private room was definitely available. He left because he wanted to leave. While we can’t know for sure, things might have turned out very differently if he had simply done what the doctors recommended and agreed to stay for observation.

Although the lie about the private room may not seem like a huge deal, it does show the willingness of his staff to lie about the circumstances surrounding his health crisis!

Feel free to delete, close or whatevs if this has been posted before or if it falls foul of someo other infirngment.

indeed, if you sift through the comments there are some insightful and thoughtout observations.

Not surprising. Prince isn't a sit-in-the-hospital kind of guy.

Agree, if the worst of these stories (or even just some of them) turn out to be true then I respect the man even more for his determination to just keep going, or at least one part of me does.

I am still heart broken and would wish the history of this could be rewound but I also think for what I now about Prince, there is a fitting beauty to passing away in the heart of his beloved Paisly Park.

Prince did what he wanted, when he wanted, how he wanted.

That's how we got the level of music and art that we got.

Did the way Prince lead his life cost him that life in the end?

Maybe

But he was PRINCE.

Praise.

I was going to say this. If he left the hospital because he wanted to and that lead to his death, then he died in the same way he did everything else. Doing what he wanted.

Its almost been 2 weeks since this happened.. and its already getting old.. people want answers! We all realize that Prince was this private person blah blah blah... As soon as he agreed to get paid to be seen in front of cameras all over the world, there were people out there who would be concerned for his health and safety.. No matter how much we sit and dissect these news stories none of it adds up... I would be so bold as to say that its irresponsible on the part of Carver County not to release any preliminary information. I just hope the family isnt left in limbo as much as his fans are..

If anyone in Prince's staff actually gave a damn about his health, they would have made him stay in the hospital. If Prince had one person in his team that stood up to him and stopped kissing his ass, he might be alive right now. I realize that Prince was stubborn and difficult but for split second, his health should have been more important than his ego. Sure some people in Prince's team might have been fired for doing the right thing but saving a man's life is a wee bit more important than a paycheck.

THIS.

Its not like Moline, IL is this major metropolitan citywith this huge population.. Even the smallest cities in the U.S. would be able to provide a private room for a public figure like Prince. thats what made me realize that this story sounded bogus.

It is sadly ironic and tragic that his always wanting to do things his way and getting his way may have contributed to his untimely passing.. I could just picture him not wanting to stay in hospital or listen to doctors advice and being paranoid about being photographed at hospital.. What really irks me though is why the hell couldn't his people organise a private room for him? How freakin hard is it to clear a space or office and if you work for a VIP like prince you assert and push to make it happen it makes me question what kind of inept people he had around him if they can't even secure a room in a time of a health scare, leave him alone without security in Paisley park and then don't even know the freaking address when they call 911??? I mean seriously wtf?!?

I agree on that THOUGH I hope to never be in a situation where I find a body of a friend/loved one etc..and have to give out info, but again just looking at timelines here, they found him in the morning in that elevator, pronounced dead after 10am, I am guessing when they found him he was and had been dead for a few hours possible dieing after midnight.

I can believe he checked himself out and was entirely stubborn. I can aslo believe he didnt have anyone around him he trusted enough to respect their judgement, and LISTEN, and stay in the hospital.

Exactly. I didn't believe it from the moment I read it, and was shocked that so many people did (do).

Possibly he couldn't transfer from emergency to a room as quickly as he might have liked, that's common.

And sometimes there is a need for a person to be transferred to another hospital better suited.

But the "couldn't find a private room" story for a [wealthy] [celebrity] in need of hospitalization? Nope.

I agree. Honestly, unless something comes out telling us otherwise and Prince died because of this kind negligence...I really don't know what to say...

I found my grandmother deceased in her room and I worked at her building as a security guard. I was at work when I found her and couldn't think at all. I was in so much pain. I didn't remember her room number at the time. So it's possible they were in total shock. They just found our beloved one. How would anyone of you react.

Yes, yes!

I don't blame him a bit for wanting to get out of there. Can't you even imagine how it would have gone down, had he stayed? TMZ breaks the story that Prince is in the hospital and suddenly everyone is on their way to Moline - creating a giant buzz about how Prince is sick/dying/whatever. And if he truly was sick - seriously, deathly sick - do you think he'd want that to get out?

People who say, "I'm pissed - he'd be alive today if he'd stayed" are talking out of their asses. There is no way of knowing that (at least, not yet). And the idea that Prince would meet whatever was ahead on anything other than his own terms is ridiculous. If you think that, you haven't been paying attention for the last 40 years.

I know a couple people that stood up to him in the way you are mentioning and that's the last time they worked for him.

Of course we don't know yet, that's why speculations and opinions are flying all over...The main issue is, if turns out that his death could have been prevented by him staying, everyone should have insisted him to. I think Prince always took care of himself, so I just I can't imagine him flat out refusing to any sort of medical care if something was wrong. He was not a reckless man.

.

I suppose we'll find things out in time..

I don't think anyone really believed that there were no private rooms. I knew when I haerd that that Prince did't want to stay in the hospital. Now I do know that hospitals get full and don't accept more folks but that wasn't the statement.

I never believed this. I mean c'mon this is Prince. I would have had a new wing built for him in an hour if need be!!! No, the sad truth is that I think he was ill and knew it. The longer he stayed the more probing would have been done and then the world would know he was dying and that's not something he wanted to let out. If this all went down his way and he was happy with it, then there is nothing to really say. But I can't helpo feeling angry about him being alone. After such a close call, to leave him alone at Paisley seens irresponsible. All the staff should have gotten together and protested and just monitored him around the clock. He may not have wanted to face his own death and figured he should just keep on living as normal, but he still should not have been left alone. I do hope that when he got on the elevator he was just finishing playing and recording....what he loved to do.
