Thank you for deciphering her blog. I tried and failed to get something meaningful out of it lately - hadn't seen the latest entry though.

 

She is only buying time, the cancer is in her bones. But yes, I agree that it's progressing faster than expected. But then I was sure she'll die this year - the obit is the question. BBC or Guardian.

 

Well the BBC put her on their 100 women of the year list and she got an article in November so I would say BBC QO is highly likely.

BBC have previous though, wasn't one of Women's Hour's Women of the Year a "List of the Lost" entry the following year?

The recent entry of Mao Kobayashi's blog was surprisingly translatable (into German):

She had a blood transfusion which alleviated her heavy breathing. There's a picture of her.  She has inflammations and anaemia. 3-4 months left?

Only German-language obits so far... could this be yet another List of the Lost-er for the next DDP update? :rolleyes:

Not one of mine (for a change). Though this does lower the number of notables born 1912 on my mega longlist to 7.

Folks, I have just rebooted the list.  It turns out the forum upgrade screwed the old version (some of the formating was lost such as some strike-throughs for hits.  Also, it seems we can't easily do nested quoting now.)  With that in mind, I have just copied the list out and started it afresh, removing all the old hits and adding the new names that have been suggested recently.  Here we go again...

Sad news.

Knew her much better as a singer. She is always ascribed as a schlager-singer, but most of her songs are more sophisticated

than the usual German schlager songs from that time.

A very beautiful woman even in her 60s and 70s by the way.

Popular Kannada TV actor Rekha Sindhu died in a car accident while travelling in Vellore district of Tamil Nadu on May 5. The incident occurred on the Chennai-Bangalore highway.

Rekha Sindhu was on her way from Chennai to Bengaluru along with three other people. 

Another Kannada and Tamil actor Rekha Krishnappa was mistaken for Rekha Sindhu. Krishnappa put a video on her Facebook page to clarify the issue.

 

Misidentifying bodies is commonplace when the vehicle comes to a sudden stop in THIS fashion.

Famous over-the-top Taiwanese comedian Chu Ke-Liang (or Chu Ko-Liang) is now dying from colon cancer:

 

http://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/3156765

 

It got so bad because he decided against surgery and the necessary colonostomy bag. Then it got so bad that he decided to have surgery after all. The success of that surgery didn't last long.

A crucial DDP pick for some, Mireille Darc leaves hospital after she has found again the strength to live:

Last week Mireille Darc was gravely ill and near death after sepsis and three operations to her liver and bladder. This was reported by multiple sources, but denied by her husband. Now it seems there's at least something real about it, but she won't necessarily die.
