Re: Naomi Judd died

[ Edited ]

According to the announcement by Ashley & Wynonna, they lost their mother "to the disease of mental illness" which sounds like suicide to me!

Very shocked and saddened by her loss.  Like another poster, I was aware that she had hepatitis C -- and I thought she looked less like her typically beautiful self at the music awards -- but I certainly did not think she was close to death.

 

May she rest in peace.

This video brought tears to my eyes. I love Wynonna's voice, (couldn't discern Naomi's).

This supposedly was taken on April 11th and as was already mentioned at the country music awards.

@Love my grandkids  🙄 And since I wrote deliberately "sounds to me like" did you think I don't realize that?🙄

Apparently they were going to be going out on one final tour, that Billboard article is April/2022. Sad.

Some posters in these forums should remember her before the next time they want to call someone who lives with mental health issues "cuckoo", "nuts", "crazy" and the other terms I often read here.

She was in her 70's, the age group of many of you. She was a human being who must have been suffering. You never know what someone is living with. Famous or not. Could be your best friend, your neighbor, a forum poster. Try compassion.
