sonnymax Posted December 31, 2021 Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 Betty White has left us just a few weeks shy of her 100th birthday. I liked so much about her - her comedic sense, her good-natured personality and her love and advocacy of animal rights, to name a few. Rest easy Ms. White, and thank you.

Teasing the Korean Posted December 31, 2021 Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 This should be moved to the "artists" sub-forum. Because she was an artist. RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 Her longtime agent Jeff Witjas confirmed to ABC Newsthat she died of natural causes. “She died in her sleep, in her own bed. It’s as simple as that,” Witjas told ABC News. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooster_Ties Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 19 minutes ago, JSngry said: Looks like she died after a stroke...not so wonderful a way to go... From that cnn article: Actress Betty White died after suffering a stroke six days prior, according to her death certificate. I’d take 6 days — over the last 2 years my maternal grandmother ‘lived’ after she had a stroke in her mid 70’s, unable to communicate, and largely paralyzed on one side. She could track motion pretty well with her eyes, and gave some slight impression that perhaps she understood what people were saying to her. But we never, ever knew to what extent — if any — if she was “still in there”, in terms of cognition, personality, etc. I don’t mean to minimize Betty White’s manner of departure, but on balance, I’d take the same any day (at any age), over what my grandmother may have experienced (and again, we’ll never know). I may delete this later. I don’t mean to mess up a perfectly good remembrance thread for a legend like Ms. White. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 No problem, totally ok imo. I'd feel the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
