Cancer treatment is taking a heavy toll on him: https://extra.ie/2019/10/13/entertainment/celebrity/gay-byrne-cancer-kathleen-watkins Comittee, get him back.

Yep, Eddie's throat cancer is back. TMZ knows: https://www.tmz.com/2019/10/13/eddie-van-halen-traveling-germany-cancer-treatment/

So I dreamt that Grace Slick dies today and that Sir Creep posted it. Let's see...

Top post on reddit right, this tweet by Tay Zonday a.k.a. "Chocolate Rain" meme guy: He seems to be going a little incel, too.

Some news about my sleeper pick Rodion G.A., electronic pioneer of Romania: After a few appeances over the course of the year, he revived his fundraising call last month, to little success. And now, to add to his liver cancer and cirrhosis, the "cemetery mafia" has stolen his slot on the graveyard: https://www.libertatea.ro/entertainment/grav-bolnav-rodion-ladislau-rosca-parintele-muzicii-electronice-in-romania-si-a-pierdut-locul-de-veci-da-vina-pe-mafia-cimitirelor-2761906 (romanian link)

Yeah, I watched it yesterday. I couldn't have told he was ill.

"Improved significantly".... temporarily... https://www.cyclingweekly.com/news/racing/raymond-poulidors-condition-improved-significantly-440147

Remarkable in a couple of ways, thanks!

Quite remarkable. The Sun is doing the heavy lifting here, C-list wrestlers and MMA fighters with nicknames. Is it a trend or is it maybe just one interested writer?

I noticed the silence a couple of days ago. She had those periods before. Maybe she's having another round of treatment right now. Eventually, there'll be the moment it isn't working anymore. I wonder if she'll let us know or whether she goes silently into the long night.

Nice list Sean! I wonder if Alagiah, MacGowan and Phil Collins are universal picks. I forgot that Hamid Karzai had some health problems a couple of months ago.

He has an autoimmune disease called myasthenia gravis, that could potentially lead to complications: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/oct/07/philippines-leader-rodrigo-duterte-autoimmune-disease-myasthenia-gravis

Well, he certainly won't go anywhere now!

Long article about his life in Florida, the climate is good for his health. And he says he's doing good, except for some moments where he can't find his wallet: https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2019/oct/06/billy-connolly-interview-tall-tales-book-fame-helter-skelter-backwards

Hmm, also at 10 here. Edit: I didn't have Baker here - because I didn't think the commitee would go for him.

Also went for Gorbachev (again)

Catherine just can't keep her lips off this man:

A quick update with 4 new hits: José Josè, Ginger Baker, Diahann Carroll (unique for GC), and Jimmy Spicer with the prophesized NYT obit. At the top Clorox, seemed to close the gap with the Josè José hit, but DI countered with the delayed Spicer obit, resulting in extending his lead by 10 - still within range of the 6ix9ine hit though. Spicer also lifts Joey onto the podium.

She wrote and sang the best song of the past decade! Chandelier!

Clive James is reading himself in this unexpected Guardian article: https://www.theguardian.com/books/2019/oct/05/clive-james-books-overrated-all-magic-realism No health news at all. So I guess the window of scoring for him in 2019 is closed.
