No reputable doctor would publically discuss a patient in this manner. Very distasteful, if you ask me. and surprising too, since only days before, while looking very frail, but mobile, and regal looking, Mrs. King did make an appearance at an affair honoring MLK.
I've got to think I think it was a huge Atlanta secret that Mrs. King had been taken out of the country...or anywhere else....for treatment. Her death was announced in the evening on local tv, but no mention until the next day of her whereabouts.
Details of the memorial services took an embarrassingly long time to be announced, one can only surmise, because the King children were again squabbling over details with the black celebrity keepers of the King flame, (like Harry Belafonte, John Lewis, Jesse Jackson, etal).
Recent news here was about the (greedy, squabbling) King children in disagreement over selling the run-down The King Center.
I figure the MSM is once again giving us only a cleansed snippet of what's really going on.
WSJ has had a couple of feature stories about the King kids and how they've battled over King Center income. Last thing I saw was a plan to turn the place over the National Park Service (Dept of the Interior).
The impression I got from the news last was, that the King children are quabbling over the funeral details amongst each other.
