wildstorm

a few names for consideration (the rest of my suggestions have pretty much already been mentioned): Robert Munsch (78) Author - dementia since 2020, former alcoholic and cocaine abuser (daughter has been teasing an epsiode of her podcast with him for over a year but hasn't posted it... i'm probably just reading too much into it, but maybe he's near the end and she's been saving this episode for when he passes?). Tom Smothers (87) Comedian - stage 2 blood cancer but he claimed in July the prognosis is good (just ignore the fact that he's selling a lot of his possessions, as well as his ranch home, in recent weeks). Jean Chrétien (90) Canadian Prime Minister - history of health issues (quadruple bypass surgery, brain surgery, kidney stones), lost his wife in 2020, worth a punt Alice Munro (92) Author - previous health issues (coronary-artery bypass surgery, cancer treatment), too frail to attend her Nobel Prize ceremeony a decade ago, retired from public life (she'll be on my list until she dies). Ryan O'Neal (82) Actor - mentioned above already (sorry to repeat), but no one mentioned his decade-long battle with Stage 2 prostate cancer in additional to his other health problems. David Soul (80) Actor (and singer?) - Hutch (of 'Starsky and Hutch' fame) previous battle with lung cancer (requiring palliative care) and ongoing health issues with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) less UK-famous and/or less pressing health issues: Josef Fritzl (88) Murderer/Rapist - reportedly suffering from demenita for a few years in prison, doesn't even have his own wiki page though (if that's the minimum fame criteria). George Thorogood (74) Musician/Singer - unnamed 'serious medical condition' earlier this year, finished his tour but hasn't scheduled any more shows since. might be nothing. Paul Henderson (81) Hockey Player - suffering from chronic lymphocytic leukemia since 2009, was receptive to treatment at first but has since had to switch and has had a few setbacks. Jesse Jackson (82) Civil Rights Activitst, Politician - parkinson's since 2017, hospitalized in recent years (caught COVID and suffered a head injury), retired from his presidential role in the civil rights organization PUSH earlier this year due to health. Dr. Ruth Westheimer (95) Sex Therapist - old and cancelled a few appearances in the last year; hope she sticks around for a while though. Cale Yarborough (85) NASCAR 'Legend' - family says he's in failing health with super rare genetic disorder, no cure and will continue to decline, family is asking for prayers. Laurent de Brunhoff (98) Author and Illustrator "Babar the Elephant" - has been publishing the Babar books since 1946 (continuing his father's legacy), not much health news but he is old af if you hadn't noticed.

i was updating my signature and noticed on my profile that August 8th marked the 10 year anniversary of the last time i 'won the day' on Deathlist, which I didn't know was a thing. (one of my comments had 4 reactions, thus securing me the title) here's to ten more years

vlogbrother Hank Green (who is also an author ("An Absolutely Remarkable Thing") and science communicator) announced he has Hodgkin's Lymphoma It sounds like it's a very treatable form of cancer, but he has some underlaying health issues (Ulcerative Collitis) which may impact him. best of luck to him in his fight, he's one of my favourite people

not a player, but a hockey-adjacent death (forgive me, friends), Peter Good, the man who designed the Hartford whalers iconic logo, has died

Yoko Ono, who I assume also has a lot of shoes
