Hi Deanna, how you doing? The more I think about it I'm almost convinced Natalie Cole may be dealing with some form of cancer or AIDS.
I don't thinking like this but it's only because I have known people with Hep C and they have never had to have chemo. This could be for many reasons but I always thought the only reason anyone have to have chemo is when dealing cancer.
I'm sure she's not ready to tell whats really going on and I respect that because she don't have to reveal anything about herself she's not ready to talk about. But I do hope she has the best staff of nurses around the clock and she pulls thru.

It was to the point where he had locked himself in his room and refused to come out. I vaguely remember that my mother and the rest of her siblings didn't even know he had AIDS (they assumed, but my uncle wouldn't say) until right before he died. Very sad..

When a friend of my mother in law was dying of cancer in her last weeks she didn't want visitors. My mother in law said she knew it was because she was getting ready to die and sure enough she died.
A couple yrs ago I went to a funeral of a woman who was friends with my family for over 30 yrs. She died from cancer I was the frist one to the funeral home , I asked the man who worked there to take me to the room the had her in.He took me to the room I looked at her and thought wait this is not her, I went back out to him and said I here to see Ms. Fox he said I just took you in there he then took me back Ihe showed me the guest book you sign and her name was on it I was like oh ok thank you. I looked at her again and thought ok this doesn't look anything like her. I said to myself ok maybe because I haven't seen her in yrs or because cancer can change the way a person looks. So I just kept looking at her and the only thing that look like her to let me know it was her was her hands. Because when she was alive she she always kept her nails so pretty. When the rest of the family came in I was waiting for them to say it wasn't her but they didn't so it was her. It hurts to see how a sickness like cancer or AIDS can take a troll on a person so much that it changes they're look.
I pray you mom will recover and get well soon. Reply to this

Folsom Street Fair... Many of my co-workers went this year (I had to work, but I would have went just to see the "sights"), including one of my bosses. I always see people walking around in assless chaps either coming or going from there.
