However, by 1980 her career was already in serious decline: in 1981, when she was only 21, her career was effectively over. She attempted a few comebacks but they didn't work out and she officially left the modeling industry in 1983. She worked for a while as a salesperson and even as a prostitute, but died of AIDS in 1986 at the age of 26, believed to have been caused by contaminated heroin needles. When she died, she was in such bad shape that her skin was falling off her back when her doctor picked her up. No one in the fashion industry attended her funeral and didn't even know she had died.

After all, none of the people she thought would care for her in New York were there for her in her final months, except for the friends she made in rehab. -AltruisticBreak9
