Joan Rivers will be taken off of life support today, Thursday, September 4th, 2014.
s there are many people who are close to the comedienne, Melissa thoughtfully wanted to give them chance to say goodbye. She had Joan moved to a private room to receive palliative care and to receive visitors.
On Tuesday and Wednesday, family members, friends, and work colleagues – including the president of E! – came to say their goodbyes in person. Some sat with Joan and held her hand. While many were somber and crying, others found comfort in sharing light-hearted anecdotes about their time with her, which Melissa really seemed to appreciate. All have been providing support and comfort to Melissa and her son Cooper, who have held up extraordinarily well under these sad circumstances.
