Former Michael Jackson nurse, Cherilyn Lee, who specializes in herbal or alternative medicine, is telling anyone who will listen that her friend was not a prescription drug addict.
She claims Michael was simply an insomniac, a tormented soul who just wanted to get a good night's sleep.
She also claims that Michael recently begged her for Diprivan, a powerful short-acting sedative that is only administered intravenously in a medical facility. This was her proof that Mike only needed a little rest.
Nevermind that there are many powerful sedatives available by prescription that don't require starting an IV every time they're administered.
Note to Cherilyn: We don't believe you!
People don't spend $48,000 a month on sleeping pills. And they don't obtain thousands of scripts using aliases and employee's names unless they're addicts. Good try though.
