Did any one see Tammy Faye Messner on Larry King Live?

Cancer has really taken its toll. Of course she has had a stressed life of the last few years. Looked very gaunt. Almost on her death bed.
 
From what I saw of it this is sooo what I would call "ratingsploitation." It is both funny and sad how one of the great innovators of cable news has turned into a bad parody of FOX News without the gaudy graphics.

I swear that when Larry King dies (unless perhaps that he is a present day reincarnation of God and is immortal) CNN is going to have him taxidermied and turn on a camera on him every night at 6 p.m. till the end of time (or be the last live host) and run a tape loop of his standard questions to which the guest sitting there answers.

What a piece of modern artwork.

I saw a quick promo ad for it last night at work. I didn't know she was sick. It was a shock.

That's really horrible to watch. I know exactly what she is going through. My Mom died from lung cancer three years ago. Fortunately, she was spared the "wasting away" and the unbearable pain that Tammy Faye Messner is currently experiencing. My Mom lived only 22 days after diagnosis (though I'm sure she had a feeling that she was ill many months beforehand). I can only hope that Tammy Faye's suffering will be soon be ending. It's a horrible way to go.

I agree. My Dad died from cancer 6 years ago. While he lived for a few months after diagnosis, the last few weeks were horrible for us. Fortunately, he couldn't feel the pain at that point. I don't wish this upon anyone. While Tammy Faye had her trials in the 80's, I believe that she really tried to make up for it over the past 10 years.

My thoughts and prayers are with her and her family. :'(
 
It was shocking to see her. She is very brave for appearing on television.

The best to you and your family Tammy Faye.
