"Sandy!" ...and then we had getting physical, rather sorry she's gone now. Time is a cruel mistress.

Yes indeed, I like Olivia, both in her music and the movies.
She obviously stood out as One Of A Kind.
RIP Sister.

Maybe I'll pull out my DVD of Sordid Lives to enjoy again.

And from the tv series...

Cancer, had spread to her lower back by 2017, first diagnosed 1992.
A slow painful death, sometimes you wonder what they did to suffer so much.

My best friend in high school’s dad went out with ONJ when they were at high school together. So I’ve always felt a connection in the 6 degrees of separation kind of way. Feeling my mortality.

Hope she’s having a blast in Xanadu

As far as treatments have come in recent years, I so long for the day when people are able to look back on the current methods and shake their heads at how terrible they are compared to what they have at that point. The way we now look at amputations and bleedings as medical treatments from the past.

When I was younger I didn't understand why people always said it was in remission rather than gone. I often miss not knowing things.

What a shame

Olivia is probably singing a song with her long-time good friend Karen Carpenter.
Another tragic loss decades ago.
