Legendary actor Robin Williams' suicide was triggered by a
horrible disease called Lewy Body Dementia, according to reports.
TMZ reported:
TMZ has obtained documents showing Williams was struggling with
the disease, which is marked by abnormal protein deposits in the brain that
disrupt normal function.
Lewy Body Dementia is a
common condition associated with Parkinson's ... and people afflicted by both
often get severe side effects from Parkinson's meds. Hallucinations are common,
where patients see phantom objects, people or animals. The patients often try
to converse with the illusions.
Robin's wife had told
authorities shortly after his death he had been complaining about the meds and
the way they made him feel.
Sources connected with
the Williams family tell TMZ ... Lewy Body Dementia was the "key
factor" they believe drove him to kill himself. We're told Robin's doctors
agree that the disease was the critical factor leading to his suicide.
