Cancer Cachexia

Trubrit

I  just watched this video of Robin Gibb (Bee Gees) singing at a charity event in the last days of his life.  He was so gaunt, and no doubt was in the stage called cachexia. Plus, he was singing a song about death. 

Have to admire the man for his strength. Showing us the way to go. May I be as brave. 

Here is the video, for anyone interested.

Thanks

Yes remember that he was on stage during his last days.  It's sad that most of that group had such tragic lives and endings.  They were one of my favorites growing up.  The don't make groups like this anymore.  Thanks for the memories.

2 years

I think he was diagnosed in 2010 and died in 2012.  He didn't seek treatment soon enough, bless him.
