The EX girlfriend had power of attorney? Wow, she must be a good EX for that.

OK, so according to the article Warrior linked to, it was an overdose and he was also suffering from pneumonia and sepsis. The near-fatal fall was last year. It sounds like he was trying to turn his life around and get help, though, I wonder what made him relapse. (maybe the illnesses were too much for him)

As for the life support issue. He's had no brain function and he's losing the battle to live. He's completely on life support. I've never understood why people fight for people to live in that condition. His family has obviously come to terms with the fact that he is going to die and they made the hard decision to take him off of life support. I wonder why the ex girlfriend is trying to keep him alive, especially since he's not really alive.
