Perry Sanders, an attorney for Jackson family matriarch Katherine Jackson, has said that Paris Jackson is “getting appropriate medical attention” but is “physically fine” following a reported possible suicide attempt.
Sanders also made apparent reference to the 2009 death of Paris’ father Michael Jackson, adding, “Being a sensitive 15 year old is difficult no matter who you are. It is especially difficult when you lose the person closest to you.”
Sanders added, “Please respect her privacy and the family’s privacy.”
The daughter of deceased singer Michael Jackson was hospitalized on Wednesday morning after a possible suicide attempt by cutting her right forearm with a meat cleaver and left a suicide note.
TMZ reports that Jackson also took a large amount of Motrin, and received stitches for her .
The 15-year-old was transported to the hospital from the family’s Calabasas, Calif., home at about 2 a.m., after a 911 call was placed.
Reports that the 911 caller reported a possible overdose but also cites a source stating that there were cuts on one of Jackson’s wrists.
