The show must go on and I'm sure Brenda will do it for Val with love.

Perhaps there is more to the story... But Valerie has put everything out in the open to her fans the last couple years, so why hide anything at this point?

I wonder how things are going now... Hopefully she is on an uphill swing

I was thinking a couple of weeks ago that I should be mad at the person working at Entertainment Tonight that came up with the news that Valerie Harper was in a coma. Or probably that "source" who gave the news to ET who stated that "It [didn't] look good.". I think that person or people probably tricked some into thinking that Ms. Harper was dying/passing away. Just another reason not to trust the press.

Anyway, I'm glad to see that Ms. Harper is doing OK after her health scare late last month.

Yeah, hopefully she's bouncing back from this as well as she can.

It's been more than 2 months since she had the 'bad reaction' to new medication, and we've heard nothing about her or how she's doing. Makes me really wonder if the media was indeed wrong about her condition back at the end of July - and whether their sources were really incorrect?

Now I know everyone is going to say she wrote on her FB page that she was recuperating from the adverse reaction she had, and she was never in a coma. However, anyone could have posted that on her page (publicist, agent, husband, daughter, friend) just to quiet the news and give them privacy (which is what I long suspected). Maybe it's me but I just find it odd that she (who has been very public and straight forward about her condition) has not made any public statement or sat for an interview since this news broke - just that short blurb on FB. This could have been a great opportunity for her to visit 'The Doctors' again during the month of September, and tell fans what had happened - and open a discussion about reactions to medications.

I do pray she's OK, but I have some logical concern as more time goes on and we hear nothing.
