Even though she was having some symptoms she never said anything for a long time. This just breaks my heart for her. It all seemed to have come on so fast. She had done her Songbird reissue and some press and the next thing you know she has passed. She probably had the stroke at home and was on life support. I still wonder why Stevie was told to wait to come. Sounds like she wasn't really wanted there. I thought I read that John was at her side. I'm so glad to hear this and hope it's true. I bid on a few of her things at the auction, now I wish I had bid enough to win something.

Which could mean there could have been life support issues. The few family gather and then say goodbye. When my mother had her stroke, she had not much brain activity but had life support machine that her family decided when to let go. You are correct she may or may not have known about the cancer. But I bet she knew.
