    David Cassidy in critical condition with organ failure

    David Cassidy is in the hospital in critical condition -- his organs are shutting down, and as one source put it, "It's looking grim."
    We're told David was rushed to a Florida hospital 3 days ago ... and his condition has been worsening since his admission. We're told he's suffering from organ failure and unless he gets a liver transplant soon he could soon die. We're also told he's suffering from kidney failure.
    David, we're told, was in an induced coma but is now in and out of consciousness.
    David's family has been arriving at the hospital to comfort him.
    The 67-year-old former Partridge Family star has been in failing health for more than 2 months ... this according to sources connected to the family.
    We're told doctors have made it clear to the family ... with Cassidy's organ deterioration, they need to prepare for the worst.

        we can only hope for the best, and if not, that at least he goes peacefully. it was not so long ago that they said Ric Flair was in organ failure and going to pass and he made a recovery so we can only hope David will too

          As a fan, this is particularly distressing to me. I've been a fan since I was about 4 or 5 when the Partridge Family first premiered. I've played his records, watched him on TV, went to concerts and have even met him a few times. I took 4 of my after school care kids to one of his concerts and David made a really big deal of them. He was my very first love, and I'm praying for a miracle and that he gets that kidney transplant before he dies. If not, I hope he goes w/o pain and w/ his loved ones close to him.

            My sister had a huge crush on him during his heyday...she’s very saddened by this. Intensified by not only his multiple organ failure...but his dementia...which hits here at home.

              His liver failure is actually much more concerning than his kidneys, as you can still function with dialysis...no such thing for the liver. Sadly, that was due to his lifelong struggle with alcoholism.

                You are the first person I thought of when I saw this today. I know how much he means to you and I hope things go well for him.
                David will be in my prayers for recover.

                HG, for your comfort.

                    R.I.P.

                    Cassidy was admitted to a hospital last week and his condition quickly worsened, his organs began to shut down and he was in need of a liver transplant.

                        This SUCKS! This one really hits me hard, you guys. The only consolation is that he doesn't have to suffer through dementia anymore. I'll really miss you David.

                            Poor guy. He was only a year younger than my sister.
