She was absent during some special episodes shot in Corsica earlier this year and said to be "tired". I was sure I posted it on here somewhere but can't find it anymore (damn you search button).

Longtime smoker and drinker who suffers from COPD and a few months ago survived severe double pneumonia, doctors considered doing a tracheotomy on him He's still acting but looks very thin and sounds frail, only 60. Ilkka Heiskanen at the Jussi Awards ("Finland's oscars") today: Doesn't sound really frail but I'd say 50/50 he's alive in two years.

Well, fine for someone who is 81, has prostate cancer and cirrhosis and recently overdosed on cocaine. He's only partially on oxygen now, two or three weeks ago I think he was pretty much bedbound 24/7 on oxygen and it seemed like he's in home hospice.
