Her voice no longer has that 'bottom fell out' sound anymore.
Its piratically normal!
I met her at an event in 2001. Back then she was thin and her voice was normal. But by the time she left Fox News she had gained weight and her voice had gotten raspy, but like everybody else who watches TV, I didn't really think about it.
Then in early 2005 I got diagnosed with thyroid cancer and had my thyroid removed. Looking back at photos friends had taken of me at the W2 Inaugural Ball, I can see how thick my neck was, but I didn't notice it myself at the time. Anyway, after my surgery, I was watching TV and saw Rita Cosby, and I noticed her neck looked "thick," alot like mine had pre-surgery. Not wanting her to walk around for years with a possible cancer growing in her neck, like I did, I sent an email to her. I never got a response, but I hoped that she would go see a doc to find out if she had a problem with her thyroid - it could have been a goiter, or worse. Maybe it was her thyroid that caused the voice and weight change. If so, I hope it was easily corrected and didn't require surgery, etc. Good luck to her wherever she goes.
