Tammy Faye to be on Larry King (CNN) tonight

[moosmom]

I saw that clip on the news this morning. She looks awful! Poor lady.

[inlovewithanimals]

I just watched that click it is just awfull how she is always in pain.

[lizbud]

I saw her last night on the preview King showed of the interview. She
looks like death warmed over. I wonder why she keeps using all that
make-up, it doesn't help her much. I feel so sorry to see any one suffering
like that. I don't know if I could bear seeing such suffering again. She can
hardly breath. probably won't watch tonight.

I was just flipping through the channels when I saw that clip. I thought it was someone pretending to be her for a bit. Then I realized it was really her.
How sad!!! She looks like a living skeleton!!!

There but for you go I, Tammy.

There but for you go I.

"Tammy Faye Bakker, the disgraced televangelist whose reputations was rehabilitated through a documentary and reality show, has penned a goodbye letter to her fans in which she says doctors have stopped treating her cancer.

"The doctors have stopped trying to treat the cancer and so now it's up to God and my faith. And that's enough! But please continue to pray for the pain and sick stomach," Tammy Faye wrote in a letter to her "faithful friends" on her Web site.

"My precious daughter, Tammy Sue, and her wonderful friends are staying with me," Tammy Faye wrote. "They don't want me falling down the stairs. I am down weight wise to 65 pounds, and look like a scarecrow. I need God's miracle to swallow."

In 1996 Tammy Faye was diagnosed with colon cancer. In 2004 she learned the cancer had returned, this time in her lungs."

make-up,

I guess she feels that she needs it now more than ever.

Catty, the picture you posted was as I remembered seeing her the last time she was on TV. The clip I saw last night really shocked me. She always enjoyed being with Larry and he often would get a laugh out of some of the things she would say. I think it is fitting that she gave what is probably her last intervew to Larry.

How awful. I heard this awhile back that she had cancer, but I never knew she was dying from it. Poor woman. I feel so sorry she has to suffer with so much pain in her body. That's awful...

I think I can answer that partially any way.
I know from my own health issues, when you start having to change your life and give up the things that make you you, you start hanging onto any part of your life that makes you feel "normal". Poor Tammy probably doesn't have much that makes her feel good right now.

I sure admire her faith and courage. I watched the first half of the show tonight.

[elizabethann]

I saw her on t.v. last night (like Entertainment Tonight or something like that). I was speechless when I saw her. I loved her spunk though. She said she still wears her big eyelashes and makeup because it's her signature. I thought that was a great response.

Well, I do understand that. You're probably right. I did watch the interview last night & the more I watched, the more I listened to what
she had to say & not how she looked. She is a remarkable person.

I agree with you Liz. After the initial shock I was able to get past her appearance and hear her. I found her to be very genuine and sweet. I think she inspired many who watched. Even Larry said he thinks she has probably helped a lot of people.

I don't know much about this lady and her husband, but I have heard of them.
Didn't they get done for fraud or embezzlement or something like that ????
I remember they hit the news some years ago down here in Aussieland.
