Jeff Conaway was taken off life support this afternoon. He was hospitalized two weeks ago after slipping into a coma while suffering pneumonia & sepsis. He’s remained in a medically induced coma since then. Conaway dealt with severe drug addiction the 80s, but the coma was not a result of an overdose. Family & friends (including Taxi co-stars Tony Danza & Marilu Henner) have been keeping vigil by his bedside, but he’s not responding so they’ve removed his feeding tube & ventilator. I’m sad. He brought me such joy.
