Regarding long-term hospice from personal experience. My grandmother was put in Hospice in January 2021 to avoid going back to the hospital and to slowly take her off her medications, similar to Jimmy right now. She died just before Christmas that year. Her quality of life was slipping, but she wasn't at death's door until her last month. So with Jimmy, it could be next week, it could be the end of the year. Like Jimmy, she was a tough old bird, making several recoveries when we thought it would be the end. God bless Jimmy and Rosalynn as they're both in such a difficult time right now. Such great and faithful servants.

on this day 77 years ago, future President and future First Lady Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter got married.

James "the Angry Video Game Nerd" Rolfe is 43.

TMZ finds Foxx in public for the first time since his hospitalization, on a mega boat waving and smiling, looking healthy. They also report he's been on his feet a lot this weekend.

Victim of elder abuse Delon's assistant has become "more and more aggressive, disparaging and offensive towards him and his children," according to his family lawyer. She has also been mistreating his dog. I hope this doesn't finish him off.

Signs of a growing split as the GRG only reports Ushi Makishi as "limbo", while Longeviquest got her date of death straight from the family. I believe Longeviquest will become the standard in the future.

Snowflake. Oh look, you also edited out the second bit of your post. Coward.

Even I can perform that piece!

Shares update for fans concerned about his health after having MRI Scan of head This one deserves a thread of his own, having been plagued with health issues for years, and would not like to be sharing Hammond's thread. Clarkson battled pneumonia in 2017 (which he nearly died from), suffered from two serious bouts of COVID in recent years, and previously feared he would go at 61 like so many others. There is bound to be a lot more news to put here in the years to come.

Henry Kamm, Pulitzer Prize winning journo and a former Scavvy Hunt pick, reportedly dead aged 98: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/09/business/media/henry-kamm-dead.html

This really is a huge pile of cack isn't it. I can't believe we have trashed decent songs by Robbie Williams, Madonna and Bob the Builder for this steaming dollop of insipid boy bands, dance tracks and discordant rap tracks

I love this list. I mean don’t get me wrong there is some absolute drivel in there, but a lot of it is making me all warm inside with nostalgia. I wouldn’t want to narrow it down to any fewer than 16, leave alone 6. Later rounds (the last one, anyway) might not be so good, mind.

Boris to stand down as MP.

Where's Kuenssberg's bauble then?

Napolitano does have some international fame, he was the President of Italy for nearly nine years, a political kingmaker and longtime politician. Of course Berlusconi is much more famous (mostly due to controversies) but I wouldn't say that Napolitano isn't "deathlisty", certainly more internationally famous and notable than Starmer-Smith or Estelle Harris

I wuold be surprised too! Napolitano will be 97 this June and he had a couple of strokes after he left the presidency. I am really impressed that he is sill alive... No doubt true, but Berlusconi is internationally famous, Napolitano isn't.

Hmmm.... he actually spent the night in hospital, that's not exactly what you do for a "check-up".

Paul Westphal has died age 70 - let’s find out about his obit chances now. Obituaries: Daily Mail

Well that's a worse indictment of the British than electing Boris Johnson!

Glen Chin dead at 70, was in various sitcoms in the 80/90's but I best remember him as the first 'morph' in Michael Jackson's Black and White video, where he turns into the very young Tyra Banks. Only obit i see is blocked for us foreigners.

Had she not openly supported Donald Trump she must just have scraped through this one
