Whitney Houston’s death caused by accidental drowning with cocaine use and heart disease contributing

I don’t think the report that has just come out of the Los Angeles Coroner’s office is surprising to anyone: Whitney Houston died on the eve of the Grammy Awards last month from accidental drowning and from the effects of heart disease and cocaine use.

So very sad and frustrating.

I’m going to see Diana Ross in concert tonight, still going strong in her mid-60s, and I can’t help but think about what might have beenĀ  if Houston had never gotten mixed up with drugs.

Such a damned waste.

The toxicology stated that Marijuana, Alprazolam (Xanax), Cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril) and Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) were also found in her body but did not contribute to the death.

Coroner’s spokesman Craig Harvey said the cocaine metabolites were found in Houston’s system, listed as a contributing factor in her death, indicated she was a chronic cocaine user.
