Aretha Franklin has pancreatic cancer. No matter how you spin it, pancreatic cancer is a death sentence - I had an aunt that died of this years ago.
Let's offer our sincere prayers for someone who influenced music so profoundly.

I was concerned when I first saw her a few years ago and noticed her weight gain. That can't be good for her either. Cancer sucks. Totally kicks a person when their down. Sending her a lot of love and

'You better think about the consequences of your actions!' | That is one of the best scenes in a great movie. Notice how the words don't sync up? She can't lip sync. She sings every song slightly different (but always in time and with soul!) every time.
One of the best singing voices ever! |

Hopefully more cures keep showing up.

That type of cancer is as bad as it gets.... I just went through this with my Grandmother. I will be forever grateful that she didn't suffer and went quietly.
I pray the same for this fine lady......
