One of my favorite artists.
(Yes, even if she is a commie pinko hippy canook!)
Nasty stuff.
She WOULD get morgellons!
Woke up it was a chelsea morning and the first thing that I knew, ‘rats controlled the wheels of power and Obama really blew!
Prayers for her (and you).

From Wiki:
Morgellons (also called Morgellons disease or Morgellons syndrome) is a name given to a proposed infectious condition characterized by a range of cutaneous (skin) symptoms including crawling, biting, and stinging sensations; finding fibers on or under the skin; and persistent skin lesions (e.g., rashes or sores). Current scientific consensus holds that Morgellons is not a new disorder and is instead a new and misleading name for known illnesses. Most doctors, including dermatologists and psychiatrists, regard Morgellons as a manifestation of known medical conditions, including delusional parasitosis, although some health professionals say that an infectious cause could one day be found. Illnesses such as delusional parasitosis can be serious and debilitating, but tested and effective treatments exist.
She is one of just a few true artists of our time. It’s bigger than politics and bigger than SHE is, really.
The muse has been pushing her since she was about 6!
Imagine having all that music in you and it’s only a SIDELINE to pay the bills!
I wish her well.
I’ll always appreciate Joni for introducing a lot of people to Pat Metheny/Lyle Mays/Jaco Pastorius on “Shadows and Light.”
Perhaps this will lead to the condition being taken more seriously. I certainly hope so.
It’s apparently a problem due to formication.
Joni ping.
Pro-abortion.
I’m sorry for your sufferings. I, too, have two auto-immune conditions and a few years back I decided to put my trust in holistic type healing. Have you tried acupuncture (through someone who was brought up in Eastern medicine)? My doc is a chiropractor as well, and while I still have the conditions (although their punch has lessened), it is the stress with dealing with poor health that has been helped immensely. It took me two years to see an acupuncturist after it was recommended to me, and I’m sure sorry I waited so long. Maybe this type of medicine would help you too! Never give up. Keep looking for answers.
America hating communist hippie folkie canuck.
Any ties to Stalin-loving Pete Seeger, Dylan and Springsteen?
Thanks. Life/health/prayer BUMP!
Although we differ politically, Joni Mitchell is a very talented person and I always enjoyed watching her perform.
I used to see her in the mid-1960’s when I was studying Electrical Engineering at Wayne State University in Detroit and she was married to Chuck (?) Mitchell who was also studying something (not EE) at WSU. Before her days of fame, I would see her at occasional free performances at the WSU Student Center.
Here it is, 45 years later and we’re both in our 60’s.
