The Daredevil 1,189 Posted December 3, 2022 It is about time there was a specific thread for this French music icon. She has been fighting laryngeal cancer for years and has recently lost the ability to sing, owing to effects of cancer treatments. In the below recent article, it explains how Hardy now needs help going to the toilet and is in a very fragile state at the moment, according to her son. https://www.public.fr/Elle-a-des-gens-pour-la-toilette-Francoise-Hardy-affaiblie-par-la-maladie-son-quotidien-est-devenu-un-enfer-Un-proche-balance-1750927 And in the following even more recent article, it is revealed Hardy feels too tired to come to see her son. https://www.lefigaro.fr/musique/thomas-dutronc-s-inquiete-pour-sa-mere-francoise-hardy-elle-se-sent-trop-fatiguee-c-est-complique-20221201 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is so annoying for that, he is one of the healthiest 80´s currently living but spend his time complaining about being old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fantomasss 209 Posted December 3, 2022 For a french name in the official deathlist, Françoise Hardy would be a more interesting name than Jean-Marie Le Pen who seems still in good health Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He’s declining quickly, looks frail, has appeared less than usual recently. Check his thread. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes not good health I didnt have seen the last photos ahah, but still publicly active, for example when he received all his neonazis friends to celebrate le front national at his home etc. I'm sure he could live ten years in a bed only for pleasure to have buried all old rival politics of his generation...

etib80 82 Posted December 4, 2022 I think Françoise Hardy is not dying "in a natural way" If she will die next year, it will probably be by euthanasia, so it's difficult to name her in the 2023 DL imo 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neither was Joanne Woodward. Likewise, you haven’t been “doing well” on DL Forums since joining in Oct 2020, and yet you persist. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Likewise, you haven’t been “doing well” on DL Forums since joining in Oct 2020, and yet you persist. To be fair not doing well with what seems to be cancer is prehaps more likely to be fatal relatively soojn than not doing well with dementia while still physically fit. Until a dementia sufferer is suffering physical issues - either linked or spreads to the dementia - it seems they not likely to be at a much higher risk of dying. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Delon but in her case, I can well see her getting assisted suicide out of nowhere in the upcoming 2 years She says she can`t imagine being able to go abroad to get euthanized as she struggles to leave the house. Also an article mentions she can`t eat which is clearly an exaggeration however with pharyngeal cancer swallowing complications are very common. Even if she doesn`t kill herself the cancer could well get her (I cant see her accepting any more treatment if required) and even if not, she is still prone to serious complications such as aspiration and infections due to a damaged immune system. Any respiratory infection or fall could well kill her due to her underlying frailty not too mention poor psychological reserve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
