I wonder if the cancer she was just diagnosed with was pancreatic cancer which is usually too far advanced before symptoms start. Lung cancer is similar with how advanced it could be when found. My son's great aunt passed soon after learning she had lung cancer.

A lot of people would be a shocker if they suddenly died. Sting, Bono, Lady Gaga, Madonna, Elton John, etc, etc. The list is pretty big. All huge celebrities. Let's hope they live a long, prosperous life.
