While talking about Natasha Richardson’s accident, Rickman wrote, “Natasha has had a bad fall skiing in Canada, thought she was OK, then collapsed.

She is now brain dead, Liam is flying up to bring her home so that people can say their goodbyes. Just that. All in one simple, devastated breath.”

The Harry Potter star continued, “When I put down the phone I must have sat in one place for an hour and then wandered. Left a message for Liam.

Spent the day answering the phone and cancelling appointments. All in a daze. Absolute unreality.”

He further wrote, “That lass unparalleled, the world’s greatest host. Her life, her days, her every minute checked, cross-checked, crammed.”

Alan Rickman added, “Energy, glamour, talent, fury, compassion, generosity, ego, laughter, smoke, intelligence, wisdom, sarcasm, fun, speed, honesty, vulnerability, taste, improvisation, order.

In the midst of the deepest laugh she knew how things should be. Except this.”

Rickman again picked the pen when he got to know about Liam Neeson’s wife death writing in his journal, “It’s inconceivable that her sheer force will not be around.

The chin tipped up, the mind racing for the next topic before the current sentence is finished, the door opening, the welcome immense.”

He then added about Neeson, “He seems at peace but there is such an absence.

The last time I was in the apartment Tash sat in the same seat as Liam.”

Rickman also wrote about Natasha Richardson’s funereal a week later.

“Deeply personal service – Liam wonderful, funny and open… later Liam told us all that because Tash was an organ donor her ‘heart, kidneys and believe it or not her liver’ had been successfully transplanted.

The doctor said she had the heart of a 25-year-old”, wrote Rickman.

He concluded, “One of my overriding thoughts from yesterday is that Liam is going to be fine. In a way, even, acknowledging his absolute love for Tash, he will be released.”
