Doctor says Blues singer Etta James is Terminally Ill

Etta James is very sick, y'all. Here's more on this story:
Dr. Elaine James, who isn’t related to the 73-year-old entertainer, tells the Riverside Press-Enterprise that the singer’s chronic leukemia was declared incurable two weeks ago.


The doctor has cared for Etta James at the singer’s Riverside, Calif., area home since March 2010.


Elaine James says she’s spreading word of the singer’s ailments so people will pray for her. She says fans know Etta James has been sick “but not how sick.”
Oh man, this is serious. If you can, send good vibes her way.

I hate sickness and death but I guess they all play a part in being human.

Damn, sad to hear this.

That said, sickness and death are just on a cusp of not playing a major part of being human. Maybe not for Ms. James, but for some of us we will see benefits of medicine that are just NOW starting to get into clinical practice.
