MrWonderful 481 Posted March 29, 2022 I don't know how many of you saw the Oscars telecast, but I also thought that Francis Ford Coppola looked like he has declined a bit. He's 82 now. It seems to me that his face looks more gaunt than it used to, and his voice was a bit raspy as well. Perhaps one to keep an eye on. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Predictor 1,018 Posted April 1, 2022 Relevant quotes from some of Ed Gale's (Chucky the Doll, Howard the Duck) videos. Could be a good pick for the Windy City Deadpool. October 2018: Quote "Everyday’s a struggle. Been in bed all week with pneumonia. I got my flu shot and I have to get my pneumonia shot because if I get any one of them, my doctor just said I’m dead, you know, so there’s no other way to look at it. So I won’t survive it." "I can’t get well, honey. It’s restrictive lung disease and it’s terminal so I’m just gonna stay happy every day." May 2020: Quote "Of course we’re in quarantine. I’ve been in quarantine since October, when I had my umpteenth lung collapse." "I’m doing well. At this moment, it’s kind of like, although I don’t have you know cancer and I don’t know anything what it’s like and I’m not trying to make an ill-gotten comparison that people will be mad at me. But having terminal restrictive lung disease isn’t much different except it doesn’t spread like cancer. But it progresses or digresses and so anybody who’s had anything like that…You have your good days and then you have…I say I have my bad days and I have my worst days." January 2021: Quote "No, I’m not doing so good. I have to see my doctor again. My breathing is horrible. Someone posted on one of my pages that I’m making up stories about my health because I can’t make any money on autographs. Okay…Keyboard coward won’t respond to me. He says that my stories my health are made up, I’m just trying to make money out of my autographs. And my video was saying I’m getting out of the business of doing autographs, so you go figure that out." "I’m dying, I’m like…My head is so stuffed, my nose became unstuffed because the air conditioner is off." July 2021: Quote "My health is failing faster than anticipated. So I just live everyday to the fullest and I ignore the fact that I’m terminal. Just go on everyday with life, you know. I don’t smell flowers, I get out of bed. What else can I do?" "Ok so it is official. It took a lot of negotiating and they wanted me to sign an affidavit that I would be there. Under no uncertain terms would I cancel. I said I have terminal restrictive lung disease. I’m living on borrowed time. It gets harder to breathe the longer that I talk. I’m gonna keep talking as long as my body will let me." "I’m doing good, it’s very difficult to keep my eyes open. And the doctors are going to do a brain scan. All theyr’e gonna get is an echo but anyway. My body is falling apart and they say I need one hip and two knee replacements. And possible ankle surgery. The problem with that is I’m inoperable. I cannot have surgery because of intubation. Intubation is when they put a tube down your throat with the mask to regulate the propofol and penathol and..yeah propofol, it goes on a drip and keeps you asleep. If you start to wake up, there’s lines on the computers and when the lines may be dropped too low or raised too high, they have to adjust the medication. Well, that tube won’t fit in my throat because I have cervical myelopathy, which means my throat is slowly closing. Which means, in layman’s terms, in dummy terms like you and me both. Trust me, anytime I call anybody an idiot, I’m including myself in that. I’m basically suffocating, so it won’t be a major deal. You know, one night, we don’t know when. Two weeks from now, two years from now, ten years from now, ten minutes, hell I could die on camera. So yeah, the assumption or presumption is I will go to sleep and one day not wake up because I’ll just slowly stop breathing." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
