Chyna Saga Takes Another Sad Turn
Sunday December 28, 2008
Chyna's 38th birthday didn't turn out as planned. After taking a dangerous mix of prescriptions and alcohol, Chyna was rushed to the hospital after friends discovered her passed out with cuts on her arms. According to TMZ.com, Chyna was so drunk when she arrived at the hospital that the doctor's had to wait for her to sober up before they could perform a psych evaluation.For the past few years, Chyna has had a public battle with addiction. She even appeared on the first season of the VH1 program Celebrity Rehab. Hopefully, Chyna will take her issues seriously this time and take advantage of the free rehab that the WWE has made available to all of their former wrestlers.

Official press release from: Jeff Bauer of Mad Dad Promotions
As reported early Saturday morning Chyna was taken to St. Joseph’s Hospital in Burbank, Ca.
Upon finishing the video shoot for Lovechild’s new single, Chyna and a couple of friends including myself, Jeff Bauer AD on the Lovechild shoot, had a few drinks to celebrate her birthday and the end of a great shoot.
Unfortunately, newly prescribed medication she is taking had a very adverse effect combined with the alcohol and Chyna blacked out and fell into her mirrored closet doors. She received minor cuts on her arms and legs.
She spent half the day Saturday at St. Joseph’s emergency and was released by the doctors without being admitted to the hospital.
Chyna is doing fine if not a little embarrassed about forgetting she was on this new medication. The family at Hybrid Culture Entertainment is with her.
Chyna is a delight on the set and we at Hybrid Culture welcome her anytime she is willing to be involved in one of our productions.
As for her wanting her hamburger and fries, TMZ contacted her on her cell phone while she was waiting for her friends to get back from MOE’S with her avocado, mushroom, bacon and cheese burger (swiss since someone out there is wondering). None of us had eaten since dinner the night before and that was the only thing on anyone’s mind.

Hope all is well for Chyna. Don’t give up. Thank’s for clarifying this issue. Hope to see her in action again
Wishing Chyna a great life ahead…
She was such a fine talent. Sadly like many in the BIZ she has challenges communicating with herself. I wish her the best and do appreciate this post.
Sadly she has become her environment
