gcreptile 10,979 Posted August 8, 2016 An update on Sharon Jones with most of the information we "need": http://www.pollstar.com/news_article.aspx?ID=825902 Another profile of her cancer battle. Key info not mentioned before is that her cancer is now stage four, with tumors present in her lungs, liver, and lymph nodes... I think she's too fit to die any time soon, but she may well die around Christmas to become this year's Sadhana Shivdasani. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not that soon; his whole output is pretty much public pronouncements of private affairs; most of it shot through with romantic if somewhat unrealistic twists. So, he's milking it, basically, IMHO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
