Not sure what you ate “hmmm” I guess about.

Lots of cancers don’t “present” until they have progressed significantly. Liver and Pancreatic come to mind. Some bone cancers and lung cancers are sneaky as well.

There really isn’t much suspicious about this. At all.

My eyes brimmed with tears at this sudden news. I liked Kirstie. She was funny and she was real. We had a few brave lady celebs at one time like Kirstie, Mary Tyler Moore, Phylis Diller. I’m sure there were more than I can name but you never saw them on a “We hate everybody” panel like The View. Rest In Peace, Kirstie Alley🥀 Sometimes you gotta go where everybody knows your name.

By hmmm are you referring to the vaccine? She was a Scientologist so no.

She did one helluva job in Runaway in addition to Star Trek; Wrath of Khan...

She was great as the villain in the Lifetime movie ‘Family Sins’.

"Somehow I never watched that movie. Looks like a hoot!"

Yes For Richer or Poorer starring Tim Allen and Kirstie Alley really is a fun hoot. It's a happy distraction from current events!

Registering my sadness and condolences for her family. She was great and I loved her and her work. Saw her first on Cheers.

Very sad.

My brother passed away from throat cancer in only seven months! He stopped smoking 20 years ago!

But it went from an itchy throat to a sore throat to terminal cancer from the last week of July to October 2016. He died on February 20, 2017.

Very underrated movie. And a great little story as well.

I had no idea she was that old. Amazing how much older many actors are than I thought they were. Still, a lovely soul has left this mortal earth. God bless Kirstie and her family in this time of sorrow.

cause of death was colon cancer, My Dad died of colon cancer in 1998 he lived one year with the disease(spread to his liver) Im really surprised that she died that quickly I figured pancreatic cancer would have made more sense since that kills rather quickly 3 months tops but colon cancer usually does not kill that quick

I’m sorry for your loss. Colon cancer struck my MIL and as with Kirstie Alley she was gone in a month after finally getting the right diagnosis.

Some really good dialog continues in that movie:

Saavik chooses this moment to ask Kirk how he beat the Kobayashi Maru test. Between bites of an apple, Kirk reveals that he reprogrammed the simulator so it was possible to win. Kirk was the only cadet to beat the no-win scenario, McCoy says.

“He cheated,” scoffs David.

“I changed the conditions of the test,” Kirk retorts. “Got a commendation for original thinking. I don’t like to lose.”
