Natalie Cole On Dialysis
Natalie Cole, who suffers from hepatitis C and had been admitted to the hospital on September 22 suffering complications from the disease, is at home in Los Angeles after checking out of the hospital earlier this week. In a press release regarding her hospitalization, it was revealed that Natalie had also been receiving kidney dialysis that isn't related to her struggle with hepatitis C.Nat announced in July that she was suffering from the disease, revealed to her during a routine examination, and that it was likely caused by her drug use years ago.

Reckless usage on the body in your "young" years can come back and wreck havoc in your later years. Pray and hope she gets better.
Just say no kids.
Get better Nat.
weve all made mistakes
Not So Long Ago SHE was a common Crack-Head selling her body and giving BJ's to regular street niggas NOT High-end customers...
SHE got hooked on the Blow (white powder) when she was in her 20's so you knew it was ONLY a matter-of-Time before the crack-habits came... And NO crack wasn't the only hard-drug she was addicted to ;-)
she still looks good, get well n,let this be a lesson whitney....
lets hope its not too late and too much damage was done.
I don't know if you guys remember her comments after the Grammy's this year when she said people like Amy Winehouse and others shouldn't be rewarded because they are drug addicts. I always thought "what the heck!" she was a druggie herself...I am not saying this is Karma for those unforgiving comments but..Well we including me shouldn't be so quick to forget the wrong we've done in our own past before we pass judgment on others..I wish her the best
Karma is indeed a bitch...
Put the pipe down kids.

wow she is on dialysis. sorry to hear that. she is pretty. dialysis is so ugly. but i guess it goes to show what she was really doing. she had that for a long time. it is also transmitted through unprotected sex. damn. we have to be careful what we do. just say no for real. the past comes back to haunt us. so we all have to stay straight.
Unfortunately, Natalie has other things going on besides Hep C. It's really sad because her brother died of Aids.
There are a number of Celebrities who are suffering from Hep C and NOT ONE, is going through what Natalie is physically. Most of them were diagnosed YEARS AGO and by all appearances, seem to be living normal lives. Remember, Natalie use to shoot up H back in the day, plus her ex-Bishop husband was living life on the DL, all that makes her HIGH risk. Judging from her appearance, you can tell she has A LOT more going on than Hep C.
Just recently the hospital sent her home. Natalie was sent home to die.

word is that Natalie has the package indeed, the "House In Virginia" itself, and "This will Be" it for her soon..science can do no more, it's get your affairs in order and right with your Maker time for dear ole Nat.. we have to live (and die) with the consequences our actions..it would be a courageous and inspirational move if she would come out before she leaves....
There's too many Black entertainers that died of drug/alchol use, even tobacco use (Sammie Davis, Eddie Kendricks,etc). Someone said we all make mistakes, but some mistakes are preventable and will cost YOU in the long run. EVERYONE needs to wise up about drugs either not to use them or go to rehab.
People dat abuse drugs basically put suicide on a layaway plan. Look like it's Nat's time to pay up.
Protect and cherish your health, brothers and sisters. It is your most valuable possession. It is true that often addicts are not aware of the long-term damage done to their bodies until years after they have quit. This was what killed jazz genius John Coltrane. Be well.
HCV is NOT spread threw unprotected sex..good lord..get a clue people!! www.hepcaware.org
A person can have hepetitis C for years and not even know it. In fact a major symptom of Hep C is no symptoms!! You can even get good blood and liver tests while the Hep C virus lies dormant in your system. Besides drug use and sex with a person infected with Hep C, another way it can be contracted is through unsanitary needles used for tattoos. If a tatoos artist gives you a tat using the same dirty needle that was used on a hep victim, you are more likely to get it too.
The medical community has been very concerned about this risk with the rise in popularity of tattoos.
Natalie Cole just MAY have HEP C, but unfortunately, she DOES have the MONSTER.
8:49 PM & 5:16- how mean.
I hope Natalie Cole gets better.
@ elove- she was on H not crack.
SMH
Some people really do go out of their way to tear down a blk woman.
sorry to say it chic, but you don't have to "go out of your way" to say negative things about a woman that has admitted to hard drug usage. i'm not judging her for what she did, but h isn't exactly a pretty drug compared to crack.
2:07 I think she thought Amy Winehouse was being validated through her drug addition because she went around looking like a train wreck BUT as long as she was making dollars no one cared. I don't know her but she proabably felt people cuddle you when you have the addiction for financial gain.
Pam Anderson has Hep C from neddle sharing with tats from Tommy Lee and she looks like she is doing well.
malika said:'m not judging her for what she did, but h isn't exactly a pretty drug compared to crack
No doubt^^^
but people saying she got that package and how would they know?HEPA
Natalie is 57 years old so she is only going to look so young and fresh, and I think thats a bad pic of her anyway.

QUIT reading-n-believing these LIES that these celebrities tell... I KNOW people who were in Rehab with her and some Known Crack-heads who smoked crack-rock with her ;-)
And YES I KNOW Some cats that got BJ's from her for $25!!! (Real Talk)
I refuse to believe it. She admitted to H but not crack. If she can tell the truth about H then why not crack?
&25 bucks(80s) is a lot. I hear these addicts around these parts only charge 5(2008).
Inflation like muh... that 25 is more like 50 in today's money.
but I guess the price went down because supply exceeds demand?
damn nat king cole's daughter has the package??? that is so sad to hear. she was raised with money and lived in a good neighborhood. matter of fact she said herself she did not even realize she was "black" in those days. wow!! it just goes to show that not all drug addicts are poor people. her hubby being on the DL. that is just wrong all by itself.

My sister is on dialysis from losing her kidney function from diabetes. She never killed her organs with drugs. Last night Larry King handed N. Cole a list of living people offering to donate their kidneys to her. My sister has waited years for a matching cadaver kidney to replace her diabetes ravaged kidneys and no one has called up saying hey, take one of mine. (Neither me or her kids were a match.) But put a celeb on t.v. who wrecked her own health and people come out of the woodwork to offer their freakin organs to her. This world is insane.
