Tedde Moore – who starred as Miss Shields in “A Christmas Story” – has died at the age of 79.

The Canadian-born actress, who battled multiple sclerosis, died on Wednesday in Huntsville, Muskoka, “surrounded by family physically and spiritually,” a statement shared on her Facebook page said.

Moore’s cause of death hasn’t been revealed.

“Her bravery in this choice was almost overwhelming, beyond beautiful and also difficult,” her family said.

Canadian? MAID, I’m guessing.

I believe that the leading cause of death in Canada is assisted suicide.

Only among Whites...

I think we can figure out the cause of death.

Well, the “browns” tend to take their own out at a much younger age and in much larger numbers, then proceed to make many, many more…

Norm MacDonald did a bit about how he didn’t like how they would say “He battled...”. “So you’re saying Uncle Ralph was a loser!? I don’t like it.” (Told while Norm was dying of cancer unbeknownst to anyone).

In this case she probably just surrendered. Hmm, perhaps she was French Canadian.

Since no cause of death is being given out, and we’re talking Canada and an elderly person, I’m wondering if assisted suicide was involved.

If so, I just hope to God it really was Ms. Moore’s choice to do that.

I had one of those coveted Red Ryder BB guns. Got it for my seventh birthday, I think.

I remember the Red Ryder model had that cool strip of rawhide near the breech.

My brothers and I had those but my mom never let us shoot BB’s. The BB shot through a device that stuck up the barrel and air would push through it to fire the BB.

We discovered that if you removed it, you could stuff crabapples down the barrel and fire those at each other.

We still have full vision

I took mine apart (naturally that’s what boys do) and discovered how it worked.

I then used 3-In-One Oil to lubricate the inside of the the barrel AND the Air Pump chamber and piston.

By doing this I was able to increase the pressure that launched the BB to the point it would go through a tin can..................

Diagnosed with MS in 2009

Some folks go downhill really, really fast.
Some have simple weakness.
Some almost paralysis.
Some have no pain.
Some feel like their bodies are on fire, all day, every day.

There is no cure.
Just lost of janky “treatment” stuff, and injection after injection, or IV drips.
That MRNA stuff was hailed as a way to remake your genes.
Interesting that they then said it was Safe & Effective as a simple vaccine after they changed what a “vaccine” was

Article doesn’t tell much, but if she chose to go, it was not “uninformed”.
She lived with it every day.

MS will shorten your life by several years and the last few are most likely to be quite unpleasant.

Huntsville, Muskoka

This is a regional municipality in the province of Ontario, Canada. Without using a search engine, how would you know where this is, unless you were from Canada. The New York Post is not a Canadian newspaper. The poor quality of writing is evident in both liberal and conservative sources.
