Magazine Reporting That Mary Tyler Moore is Near Death!?! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Granted, it is the HORRIBLE National Enquirer, who are known to make up their fair share of stories, but still, how are they allowed to do this? I know Mary is sick, but she has been sick for years and with her lifetime achievement SAG award coming up, I think this is an absolute disgrace!

Well, of course. Consider the source. It's the same magazine that says O.J. is Khloe K.'s dad!

Well, I certainly hope it's not true. The NE is a heartless rag, for sure, but they do occasionally get scoops.

Whatever the case, I hate these tabloids that post demeaning and shocking photos of very ill celebs. It is truly an invasion of privacy and we have no right or interest in seeing them. If someone is very ill, let them have their dignity.

they still have magazines?

i think they meant that the National Enquirer is near death, and is in the advanced stages of senility so will say anything out of desperation just to get attention.

MTM was just recently on Betty White's birthday special.

I *think* they took that photo of Mary after her brain surgery early last year.

sad to hear about Angelina's cancer being pregnant though - at least I assume that's a bad thing?

Did you notice how bad her speech was... Very slow and specific. I wonder if it is related to the brain surgery she had.

I love MTM... But I think her health troubles are catching up to her.

Well, considering that she DID have brain surgery this past year, and don't forget she's lost much of her eyesight--I think her presentation was remarkable!! God bless her for even being there and standing on that stage!!!!

Good health or bad, Mary Tyler Moore is an inspiration to me for standing up to all the challenges that she has faced in her life. It is a brave person to stand before millions on TV like she did last week at Betty White's birthday like she did and I think that was, well .... she can still turn the world on with her smile.

I agree- yet when Carol Burnett expressed the wish to be there for Betty's 100th Birthday, I couldn't shake the feeling that Betty would be more likely to make it for that occasion than Mary!

Yes, I pray Mary will have many happy, healthy years ahead but right now she doesn't seem in the best state of health.

One thing, that photo is most certainly from when Mary had her brain surgery, which is very unfair. Of course, no one has ever accused The National Enquirer of being fair. But regarding Mary's current condition, she's had some difficulty in the last couple years with her vision as a result of the diabetes. As for her speaking abilities during Betty White's birthday special, I can just about guarantee you that's a result of the brain surgery. Brain surgery is never a minor deal. I had a friend who had a benign brain tumor and had to have surgery to get it removed because it could have grown and caused problems. This was a young guy in his mid 20s, not a 75 year-old, and the effects of the surgery on him were very obvious: Before the surgery, he seemed perfectly normal. After the surgery, he had memory and speaking problems. It takes a long time to recover from brain surgery. Mary Tyler Moore's willingness to stand before an audience of millions so soon after brain surgery speaks volumes not only about her bravery, but also about what a true and loyal friend she is to Betty White.
