I know strokes can be triggered by high altitudes. I wonder if the plane ride had anything to do with the heart attack? ![]() |

Oh lord............... This is just breaking news, and no details yet, but it is starting to be reported that Debbie Reynolds, mother of Carrie Fisher may have just been rushed to the hospital suffering from a possible stroke. Thoughts and prayers are with her if these reports are indeed true. Stay tuned. "Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once." ![]() |

Can some amend the title to RIP Mother and Daughter Debbie Reynold and Carrie Fisher? Loss of a child is always so hard. ![]() |

Can some amend the title to RIP Mother and Daughter Debbie Reynold and Carrie Fisher? I believe the thread originator, Mr. Kevvy is the only one who could do that. "Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once." ![]() |
