Tina Turner dead at 83

83? Holy crap I didn't realize that she was that old. RIP your majesty. 👑
My brother worked in Switzerland for 4 years. Same town she lived in. I'm sure she lived in a mansion. My brothers place was pretty fucking amazing too. Right on Lake Zurich. It always fascinated me that she moved there. No blacks live there. It is an amazingly beautiful place but why did she decide to live out her life there? Did she have a lover who lived there? Why did she leave the USA? I would love to know the answer to these questions.

Maybe she just got tired of the constant attention and adulation and wanted peace and quiet.

One of my regrets in life is I didn't go. Had a shitty job and I couldn't take that time off. My brother was even going to pay for my flight.

Plus my mom had Alzheimers and I don't think I would have left my dad alone for 3 weeks. That cheap mother fucker refused to hire someone to watch her for 8 hours a day so he could rest or go shopping. Instead he just relied on me. So I would watch her for 1-2 hours a day. I don't know how he did it 22/7 for 5 years.

My Dad's been doing it for about 15 years now with Mom, watching her get worse. He's not ready to get somebody to give regular help either. My brothers and I get up to see them and give him a break when we can, but it's mostly on him. Add to that, she's very hard of hearing, which makes her isolation even worse.

I can't know what you are going through because every Alzheimers patient is different. Regardless, poor guy.

15 years! I thank God she only lasted 5 years. No one wants to live like that and no one wants to take care of someone like that.

When it got too much it was because she was falling and hitting her head. I said if she can't walk to the bathroom and bedroom with you helping her, she has to go to a home. So we took her to the hospital. They could only keep her for a week or two. We had to find someplace to put her. But it was super expensive and who knew how long she would live. So a lawyer told us he could protect their money and get her in a place where medicaid pays. Only problem is, the place where she MIGHT get medicaid, was $22,000 a month if you don't have medicaid. So my dad put down $22,000 and thank god she died in a couple weeks. Could you imagine if the lawyer was full of shit and we had to keep in in that place for 2-5 months? $100K gone in 5 months??? FUCK!

The hospitals almost took my mom away from my dad. Told him he had to get more help and safety proof the home and do everything they told him or else. So he did what he had to do but they could see it was killing him. He wouldn't listen to any of us.

I'll say it again, thank GOD he took her sooner rather than later. What a horrible disease. I don't know who's worse them or Alex P Keaton. Or Michael J Fox. That's a bad one too.

Hey, I love arguing politics with you. Nothing personal. I'm just a liberal douche and always will. I think the GOP is the dark side and they would have to COMPLETELY change for me to ever join the dark side. But we are all Americans and I believe a little lib and a little con is what makes us great. I wouldn't want to live in a all lib country. Socialism, lazy mother fuckers, anyone who doesn't want to work gets welfare, no accountability. I believe the GOP is the dad and Dems are mommy.
 
We should all hope to have such a long and fulfilling life as she had.

RIP Queen of Soul.
No doubt. Switzerland is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. The people who live there don't like foreigners. There is a section where rich foreigners and ex pats live. My brother said the natives would look at you with disgust.

Sounds like Hawaii.

I bet all places of paradise are like this. They don't want foreigners coming and fucking it up. Oh you have Tina Turner money? Come right on in. Only you guys live over there in this section of the country.
