CoffinLodger 1,248 Posted December 12, 2020 New documentary of Gorby has just come out. Suffice to say make sure he's on the 2021 list.He's a sad and sorry sight, clearly nearing the end. Here's a trailer.. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,438 Posted December 12, 2020 To quote a former member of the forum, I certainly think Gorbachev is "famous enough and sick enough". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,936 Posted December 12, 2020 He looks like my father in his last period. Obviously he receives another level of medical care, but surely deserves a spot on 2021 DL. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drol 11,936 Posted December 12, 2020 8 minutes ago, Charles De Gaulle said: Sorry to hear about your deceased father. He died in June 2019, would have turned 88 in August 2019. He was suffering from emphysema, heart and kidney failure. Gorbachev looks very similar to him, guess he has at least some of the same ailments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Putin 423 Posted March 1, 2021 Happy 90th birthday Mikhail Gorbachev He should return on the Deathlist again in 2022 if he still is alive by then, and stay on it untill he dies imo 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoneySavingExpt 43 Posted April 24, 2021 Some rascally prankster added Gorby to the "Recent deaths" page on Wikipedia. I briefly assumed it was genuine but then there was nothing on TV or websites. They said it was of COVID. It caused this automated Twitter account to declare him dead 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,220 Posted January 1, 2022 Needed to return. Thankfully he did 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Old Crem 3,583 Posted January 1, 2022 Surely the only way he is now leaving the list is death. Fairly decent chance it’s this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Impends 7,963 Posted January 1, 2022 Hopefully, his high placement means Gorby is here to stay on the DL henceforth. Albeit I can't really see the wait being too much longer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

InquilineKea 75 Posted January 16, 2022 Uh in that documentary above he doesn't look that terrible. Sure he needs help with a walker (and will probably be in a wheelchair soon) but doesn't seem to be at death's door. Also, if it weren't for his sarcopenia, he LOOKS young for 89.

arghton 6,702 Posted March 25, 2022 Picture posted from the facebook page of the Gorbachev foundation this month. Not 100% sure if it's new, but looks pretty frail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DCI Frank Burnside 3,887 Posted March 25, 2022 Doesn't appear to be any frailer since the documentary he did. Hard to tell properly from still images obviously Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chel 376 Posted June 20, 2022 The condition of 91-year-old Mikhail Sergeevich periodically worsens. The exact diagnoses are not advertised, but doctors have been observing the former Secretary General for about a year. And recently they began to take me to a Moscow hospital for dialysis. From time to time, Gorbachev undergoes blood purification. https://mash.ru/news/152703 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
