Thought He Had A Brain Tumour

Michael Jackson reportedly believed he was suffering from heart attacks, cancer and brain tumours in the run-up to his death.

According to aides of the tragic star, prescription drugs and pain killers made him so dillusional that he even thought her had hypothermia and frostbite.

One told the News of the World: “He was a mental wreck and always felt he had a disease. He was terrified of the sun as it irritated his vitiligo [skin condition], prompting him to claim he had cancer and brain tumours. At other times he said he was freezing cold and might have frostbite. On reflection his body and mind were just wrecked by drug use.”

The king of pop also thought he had suffered a series of heart attacks, leading him to hire cardiologist Conrad Murray – who is set to appear in court on Monday charged with the star’s involuntary manslaughter.
