Former Smash Mouth lead singer Steve Harwell is receiving hospice care treatment at home, a representative confirmed to CBS News Sunday.
The artist — whose band is known for hits including “All Star” and “Walkin’ on the Sun” — is being cared for by his fiancé, according to representative Robert Hayes.
Harwell was previously diagnosed with cardiomyopathy, a form of heart disease.
He’s been an alcoholic for awhile, I he was doing good and then his son died and he fell off the wagon a few years later, I don’t really think he’s been in the right state of mind since
In six months, I lost my dog, grandma, mom, and cat. I can tell you 5 years since and I’ve never given a Nazi salute. Although I went from a 4.0 student to 3.5 my last two quarters of college while I was going through that.
I’m a nurse and I don’t expect much from anyone with end stage liver failure. They start getting encephalopathic and acting nuts. Then I need to give them lactulose and they poop everywhere.
well, he has literally been an alcoholic for decades and at this point had heart issues and Wernicke encephalopathy, he was literally not all there anymore.
Also as others have said, your personal experience is just that, your personal experience. It doesn’t apply to everyone. His story is an unfortunate one, and it’s clear that before he succumbed to his disease that lead to more illness he was an awesome, fun loving, inclusive dude.
