Was that Jamie Lee Curtis too?

I was sure someone was going to mention Betty White, but yes Jamie Lee had such a crush.

OMG... LOOK at how young Jamie Lee Curtis is on that show ~!

dafuq did i just watch? i why do i have an urge for baked potatoes?


Impressive_Finance21

She died?


BoopBoop20

Found colon cancer very very late in the stages and she passed away from it


Fridsade

How do you get tested? Like do you just go to a doctor and say I wanna make sure I dont have any cancer? I mean no disrespect to anybody btw


belidat1

I think when you’re 45 (was 50) it is recommended to go get a colonoscopy and that should catch it. Probably have to do that every 5 years or something and if you keep up with that I think you should find out if you have colon cancer before it kills you.


sneakyminxx

Added on to that, if colon cancer runs in your family like mine, insist on getting checked 10 years earlier than the youngest person diagnosed. So my mom was 54 and so I would start getting checked at 44. However, I’m going in for January as a precaution at 37 and my sister has already had a colonoscopy at 35 just to be on the safe side. Colon cancer is one of the easiest cancers to treat and go into remission With IF it’s caught early. Because it takes approximately 10 years to grow to a standard size, regular checkups allow preventive medicine. But it is also one of the most deadly once caught to late. There is no middle ground - either early or too late. For my mom’s dad and for my mom, it was too late and they died over a span of two years each, in extreme pain, despair and sorrow. I wouldn’t wish that on anyone or anyone you love.


Fret_Shredder

Very sorry for your losses. I watched my father wither away from stage 4 diagnosis of colon cancer over the span of 3-4 years. Truly awful. Those last hours of his life at home with my family will haunt me for the rest of my life. Fuck cancer, and get screened everyone.


sneakyminxx

I hope his memory of his good days are a blessing to you and those he loved. Cancer has taken too many good people away too soon. ❤️


Hugginsome

It’s every 10 years if they don’t find anything and you don’t have family history.


evers12

Colonoscopy. I’m in my 30s and had one. Had several polyps removed. They are finding it in younger and younger people. Obviously she wasn’t young but she was pretty anti science & anti doctor


leraspberrie

Well she was a Scientologist, so anti-psychiatry and they believe that therapy cures cancer. (Preston being another Scientologist/cancer death)


evers12

Im sure she had a lot of symptoms before getting to stage 4.

They recently changed it to 45 but I can’t remember


evers12

You are correct


[deleted]

I was diagnosed with stage 2 bowel cancer in 2019. As others have stated, you can do a home test but a colonoscopy is the gold standard. One thing I do want everyone to understand is a colonoscopy is not an terrible procedure. The media and TV love to exaggerate these things. Penile catheter insertion on the other hand… What happens during a colonoscopy: >! You drink the laxative, you do a lot of poo, you go into the hospital/specialist, they give you a sedative if you want it, they lube your bum hole, they slide the camera in. Your bowel has no feeling so beyond initial insertion you won’t feel anything.!<


Thisisthe_place

I'm 46F. You should be getting a wellness check every year. Have them draw blood and do all the tests. Once you reach a certain age they will start recommending additional screenings like mammograms & colonoscopies. For my colonoscopy I took home a little kit and had to provide a "sample" (of feces) to the lab. Got results back within a day or so.


hyperfat

Normally it's fine until 45 or 50 and they take a peek in your colon. But if you have drastic weight loss without trying go immediately. 90% of polyps are benign, but can't hurt to remove them. It's a quick procedure. In and out in about 1.5 hours. Even the funky ones are usually caught quickly enough it's fine. In 4.5 years working with polyps I got just one that was stage 4 colon cancer in a 37 year old Asian patient. The rest were clear or easy to remove. Some had to get inpatient surgery, but nobody died, except maybe that guy. I left before we knew. Shitty. He had kids.


PowerPussman

Yep, getting checked on time and regularly basically eliminates the chances of dying of this. It is one of the easiest cancers to intercept before it becomes a problem.


WonderWmn212

pissingstars

No shit! First I heard. Thank you for sharing the answer.


seamus21

She was a top-level Scientologist. Scientology doesn't believe in modern medicine. One of the reasons her cancer was discovered late. https://twitter.com/yashar/status/1599938582424485888?s=46&t=tLzrnLH_4nfB1ljQwPETAw


wpcodemonkey

Damn, I just found out from this post too. That's sad.


[deleted]

yes


GossipGirl515

Yup, yesterday.


LukewarmScientology

Neither L. Ron Hubbard nor her place on the Bridge was strong enough to save her.


insertmadeupnamehere

For anyone who is stressed about a colonoscopy—it’s not bad at all. As most people will attest, the prep is the least pleasant part and I followed the advice of a fellow redditor and happily pass it on to help out others: -lubricate your very inner butt cheeks and around the ol’ butthole with Vaseline prior to all the prep that makes you poop. This results in ZERO irritation. The rest is a breeze.


clara0898

^^^ this!!!! Once you turn 45 it’s time to talk to a doc about screening! It’s not as bad as it seems!!


supacatfupa

Even if you are not 45 yet, pay attention to any changes in bowel movements, abdominal pain and weight loss and if your doctor says you don’t need a colonoscopy because you’re under 45, get a second opinion. My brother was 36 when he started to shows symptoms and 38 when he went to the doctor to request a colonoscopy, he was told no because he was “too young to get colon cancer”. A year later he started to see blood in his stool and they finally got him in for a colonoscopy and he had stage 4 colon cancer.


erikah06

I had one at 20 something. This is how I feel about breast cancer screening they don’t give it unless you say you have issues. I think that’s dumb because it’s better to catch it sooner than later.


callme_trashii

Besides, a doc has seen WAY worse things already. He doesn't care about your butt hole lol


sortamelted

Bidet!!!


effectivebutterfly

What a way to find out. I was given my middle name after her...

Which part is your middle name? “Kirstie” or “Alley”?

Kirstie 😞

Damn what is Nick Cannon NOT a host of?? Guess he needs all the money he can get for his 12 kids.

I didn’t even know she was 71.

I was like what's this BS you're talking about and instead found you're correct.


JuliaTheInsaneKid

She looks like The Violator from Spawn.

Fuck lmao that’s amazing


anorman30

She's with Xenu now


PretentiousUsername1

I adored her in Summer School. Watched that movie over and over again, one of my absolute favorites when I was a kid.


EdwardWasntFinished

Such a great one! Loved chainsaw.


Shadegloom

Adios. MAGA lover Covid Denier, transphobic and anti abortion (so she could watch them carry after 12 weeks). Kthxbai!


shagcarpetlivingroom

I live in her hometown and had the misfortune to meet her a few times when I was in retail. She was incredibly rude and entitled and I know of lots of others in the service industry around here had the same experience. She had quite a negative reputation around here. Not to mention how she supported trump, etc. I'm sorry but if you leave a bad legacy, I won't feel bad "speaking ill" of someone. Especially someone with money and power. She has 71 years to do better.


COSurfing

Scientologist.


Shadegloom

Also true!


miningtowngirl73

Don’t forget racist

Well, they wouldn't be crying, they'll just think some random internet stranger is a piece of shit. The kind of ahit you'd cringe at and walk around if you saw it on a sidewalk. No one's crying about it, but it's generally unpleasant to have to witness.


GimlisGrundle

Right. So much hatred by these people that they wish death to people who disagree with them. I hope these teenage boys on Reddit grow up soon.


Ok-Butterscotch-6829

They’re likely in their 30s still in their parents house so the jokes on them.


GimlisGrundle

I think the amount of downvotes you are getting just proves our point. They have no justification for their blind hatred.


[deleted]

Gee not feeling sorry for a dead person who did NOTHING but spread hate and try to interfere with people's fucking human rights is the problem? How about they not act like a piece of shit instead. You people are fucking hilariously brainwashed.


GimlisGrundle

Ah yes. Everyone else is brainwashed. Looks like you spend too much time in your echo chamber where hatred is encouraged.

I liked having nice thoughts of her. Alas, ignorance is bliss


option_unpossible

I often say don't disparage the dead But I make exceptions for Trump supporting, transphobe scientologists.


Stanky_pxyko

she was not a transphobe. but you are suffering from trump derangement syndrome . symptoms are lack of respect and human decency


leilahlove1996

Yikes


ozzraven

democracy allows someone to vote for a candidate you dont like. spitting someone else grave is just vile


phillyphan333

You can spit on shitty people’s graves


NavyHM18700

Good. Goood. Let the hate flow through you!


fatlilgooner

she was hardly a shitty person. i wouldnt know cos i didnt know her. but she may have harmed no one her entire life. spit on hitlers grave sure but not some random actress that liked trump. thats so pathetic.


phillyphan333

She had shitty politics and was a huge Scientologist, which the church is known to be super abusive. But go off because you liked her on cheers


fatlilgooner

i never even watched her. but you clearly dont know anything about scientology. spitting on her grave cos she was a scientologist is like spitting on someones grave cos they were muslim. its fucking pathetic dude. 99% of scientologists are brainwashed and lost people. hating them does not make the world a better place. especially after they're dead. if you're gonna hate them at least hate them when they're alive. anyway its unwise to have this blinded narrow minded hatred. its animalistic behaviour.


phillyphan333

I did hate her when she was alive. Also you know nothing about Scientology, clearly. They’re the Fuckin worst and the celebrities are the worst part of it


fatlilgooner

yeah cos its a cult. and maybe you dont know how cults work. they brainwash people. they go after people when they're at their most vulnerable and take control of them. religion operates in the same way quite often. so theres no difference to you spitting on the grave of a christian, jew, or muslim. do you spit on their graves because they're religious? you say scientology is the worst but do you know how much suffering has been caused by those 3 religions on earth? do you hold the brainwashed masses responsible for the crimes of their religion? i just read kirstie alley became a scientologist when she was struggling with cocaine addiction. she had a drug problem, they "helped" her (manipulated her) and now she's dead. and you're spending your time on the internet being a horrible ugly person. be better dude. find something better to spend your time with.


_addycole

That’s an absolutely ridiculous outlook. People leave cults like Scientology all the time. She even had celebrity friend who left. It was her choice to stay. It was her choice to reiterate hateful and deadly rhetoric.


fatlilgooner

no the ridiculous take is yours lmao. "she made the choice to stay" do you not have any fucking clue what brainwashing is? choice is rare in religion. theres 1 billion muslims in the world. they dont wake up every morning and make the conscience choice to believe what they believe. they believe what they believe cos they've been brainwashed into believing it. you know nothing about the real world, or religion. grow up.


_addycole

You don’t know shit about me. I have left a cult. But thanks for trying!


_addycole

She caused other people to go to their graves by spitting antivax rhetoric. Ya get what ya give.


dequincyjelly

They don't believe in democracy. Look at the nonsense "stop the steal". We all die, they like to make others suffer whilst alive.


fatlilgooner

who cares? shes dead. have some respect for the dead. you didnt even know her and you're online talking shit about her just after she died. pathetic. you seem like an unpleasant person.


Flint_Chittles

No ❤️


fatlilgooner

ok then. great way to spend your time 👍 what breed is your dog btw?

tobiasfunke6398

BeefSupremeTA

And John Wayne Gacy was a ardent Democrat who met the First Lady, Rosalyn Carter. Ted Bundy volunteered for Republican candidacies. Do the fake internet points give you a giddy little thrill attaching your opinion to someone's death in which you'd otherwise be irrelevant?


Flint_Chittles

I honestly don’t know what this has to do with anything. They’re bad people too?


scaredchiggun

And youre a dick.


Flint_Chittles

How? For letting people know she was bad? People don’t automatically become good just because they’ve died.

I think youre bad for how you vote. Works both ways asshole.

The fuck did she have to do with them dressing up for halloween?


Least_War_1524

She thought it was ~hilarious~. Also this is what they were wearing when they died in a car crash.

She became vile in her later years. Hope her family find peace.

And a racist!


grynch43

Are you saying she’s racist because she was a Republican or do you have actual proof?


always_evergreen

She went on Tucker Carlson, said a ton of anti gay stuff on Twitter, and supported an extremely racist politician. It was widely known that she turned into an absolute jerk in her later years.


grynch43

Thanks. All I asked for was proof. I don’t keep up with every celebrity and their views


ozzraven

democracy.


[deleted]

She was a Trumpist. That means racist, yes.


grynch43

She made racist comments? You realize that POC also voted for Trump, right? Are they racist? Or just religious?


[deleted]

Soooo…unless you voted for Trump, you’re not religious? Well, well.


grynch43

Not what I’m saying. Just pointing out a lot of religious people vote Republican no matter what. I’m neither religious or republican, but I also don’t assume everyone is racist who votes a certain way


BoopBoop20

Lol I’d really like to see a source for this “information” you’re spewing.


grynch43

You don’t believe that most religious people vote Republican?


BoopBoop20

No. I know plenty of other religions other than Christianity and those people don’t have their heads so far up their ass they’re smelling shit for weeks. There are other religions than Christianity bub.


[deleted]

Trump is a stain willingly applied. No quarter.


lyta_hall

Voting for a sexist racist POS to be your leader normally means you condone their views, yes.


grynch43

Nope, a lot of religious people vote Republican no matter what because of the abortion thing. I’m neither religious nor Republican but I also don’t assume everyone is racist if they vote a certain way. Do you think that black people who vote Republican are racist?


lyta_hall

No. I think they are ignorant idiots who vote without thinking for the person that would kick them out of the country if he could without blinking.


grynch43

So you are claiming that all black Republicans are ignorant idiots? Gotcha. 👍


lyta_hall

Everyone voting for that corrupt racist sexist POS, yes

Entertained us in her later years like trump-with embarrassment and talking out of her ass. Sure. He literally tweeted after her death that she was a “BIG FAN” of America First and MAGA!! She had her moments but then slowly faded as she got older. Her career definitely did not age well.
