Yeah, it seems that Benjamin's grave is the same. Not sure why they went with above ground though.  All the graves are fanned out near the fountain. There may be piping in the ground in that area not allowing for a a burial. |

They're probably buried above-ground because Memphis was originally pretty swampy, just like New Orleans.

My area of the Bronx was built on swamp lands and many homes on sand cause we’re located on the Long Island Sound. Lots of homes are sinking, million dollar waterfront homes built on the sands of a former beach club. Like who ok’d that at the buildings department. R’s mom’s old house in the Bronx was built on excavated and filled swamp. We would randomly find like a tire or boot had risen up in the yard. Apparently his great grandmother cheaped out on the fill and bought landfill from a dump. 🤣 |

Lisa Marie Presley was desperately trying to lose weight for the Elvis awards season and was even taking opioids, family sources have claimed. The star underwent plastic surgery two months before the Golden Globes and lost up to 50 pounds as part of a strict regimen, insiders told TMZ. At the awards show just days before her sudden death from cardiac arrest at her Calabasas, California, home, the 54-year-old was seen slurring her words and appeared unsteady on her feet on the red carpet. www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11691767/Lisa-Marie-Presley-opioids-taking-weight-loss-meds-Golden-Globes.html |

Opioids for weight loss? That's a new one on me.

Not surprised as the autopsy didn’t find a physical cause of death.

Maybe she was described opioids because of the surgery she had?

not just opioids, diet pills too. she apparently dropped 40-50lbs in two months. there's no way you can do that in a healthy way. and she had some kind of plastic surgery during that same period as well. no wonder her heart gave out.

^^ You're right, that's a lot going on. I don't know what dosages of Wegovy people are taking, but I read it was twice as potent as Ozempic, which is a once a week injection. Wonder how harmful it would be if taken more often?
I have an Rx for Ozempic, for type 2 diabetes and it was working well, lowered my A1C to 5.7 and a bonus of a little weight loss. Guess what? I haven't been able to get it since December because there's a shortage and it's on back order until March. So all these celebrities looking for a quick fix weight loss are getting this drug before the people and purpose it was intended.

They bury people in the ground in Memphis. But that area (if they're at Graceland around the fountain) there is probably not the room to put them in the ground.

So all these celebrities looking for a quick fix weight loss are getting this drug before the people and purpose it was intended. I'm having the same issue with my Adderall. People are using it for weight loss. IDK how they're getting their Dr to prescribe it. But the past 2 months every time I go to the pharmacy they are out - actually have called 3 different ones. All say they can't get it, it's on back order, don't know when it will be available. My Dr ended switching me to a lower dose, but I take more of it to equate it to the dose I was originally prescribed. So instead of 1 20 mg tablet, I'm on 2 10 mg tablets. I wonder when I won't be able to get that because of people that don't need it are taking it? |

That is insane! A friend's sibling had bariatric surgery and they weren't even close to losing 20-25lbs every month, even though they stuck to the strict diet and exercise plan they were given. Her body must have been in a state of near ketoacidosis while trying to fuel itself enough to keep going. |
