It's sadder than you think. When I went to NP school, I had to do a tour on a geriatric ward where many of the pts. had Parkinson's. If you drew a chalk line on the floor, they couldn't step over it. It won't kill ya, but I'd rather be dead.

That's sad, I love her.

I grew up while she was in her hey-day with the sexy rock star thing going on.
Later in life I "rediscovered" her awesomeness when she teamed up with Nelson Riddle with a more "adult" genre.
