In a deeply saddening incident, the beloved F.R.I.E.N.D.S. star Matthew Perry, renowned for his iconic role as Chandler Bing, has passed away at the age of 54. The news broke when Perry was discovered lifeless in a hot tub at his Los Angeles residence, as reported by media outlets in the western region. It was reported that Perry had returned to his LA home after an intense two-hour pickleball match, with his assistant running an errand during this time. Upon his assistant's return, Perry was found unresponsive in the Jacuzzi.

Matthew Perry, celebrated for his portrayal of Chandler Bing, had garnered an enormous global fanbase. In prior interviews, Perry and his fellow cast members, including Rachel Green, Courtney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer, and Matt Le Blanc, had candidly discussed his enduring struggles with drug addiction and various health issues. Perry's memoir, titled "Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing," even delved into his near-death experience at the age of 49, which may come as a surprise to many.

The memoir revealed that Perry had suffered a life-threatening gastrointestinal perforation at the age of 49, caused by his overuse of opioids, which led to a burst colon. This critical condition resulted in Perry slipping into a coma, requiring hospitalization for a harrowing five-month period. Subsequently, he had to utilize a colostomy bag for an additional nine months. In a previous interview with People magazine, Perry disclosed that his chances of survival were as low as two percent during this ordeal. He had been placed on an ECMO machine, a procedure with an incredibly low survival rate.

Within his memoir, Perry also disclosed that he had undergone 14 surgeries on his abdomen, each serving as a stark reminder of his commitment to maintaining sobriety. The book pays homage to his therapist, who played a pivotal role in his recovery journey. Perry's therapist once told him, "The next time you think about taking Oxycontin, just think about having a colostomy bag for the rest of your life."

Matthew Perry's life story serves as a poignant reminder of the human spirit's resilience, triumphing over adversity. His journey from the brink of death to recovery is a testament to his strength and determination in the face of life's most challenging obstacles.
