She battled so hard and is to be admired for her courage. She started as just another blonde babe and grew into a respected performer. Hope her son doesn't continue into the O'Neal pattern of self-distruction.

"A movie is not good because it arrives at conclusions you share, or bad because it does not. A movie is not about what it is about. It is about how it is about it: about the way it considers its subject matter, and about how its real subject may be quite different from the one it seems to provide." - Roger Ebert, from the introduction to "Awake in the Dark" (2006)
She fought so desparately against this disease. I hoped that she would have more time. I gasped when I read the news. So tragic and depressing. RIP.
