Blind Item #2

Sometime within the past year I told you about the A list television actress from the hit show back in the day who turned into an A list mostly movie director and how lung cancer is killing her. Apparently things have taken a turn for the worse and she is selling her homes and is moving into a hospice facility. There is also talk of converting one of her smaller homes into a home hospice.

    From an interview with Fox411 in 2012:

    FOX411: How is your health these days?

    PM: Well I had lung cancer and that mesta, whatever that word is (metastasized) on my brain. I felt no pain or anything by the way. The rags said I had liver cancer, I don’t drink! They made up s**t, I’m sorry about my language but I get pissed at these things. But I’m fine now.

    Yep. Penny. Although she has been denying it. I loved her on Laverne and Shirley. How sad this is.

    Wow, she's lived reeeaalllyyy long after a diagnosis of lung cancer metastatic to the brain. A year is just about the best one can hope for and that's usually quite a stretch.
    I hope she has good docs & good drugs for her final chapter.

    Yes, at least it was very similar. It was about Marshall's cancer and her imminent demise. It wasn't about her selling her houses and I don't know why she'd have to at this point.

    She was beautiful in her prime and a true acting inspiration for women in that time.
