She's a musical pioneer. Unfortunately, the odds of surviving pancreatic cancer are extremely slim.

Her loss will transform Motown in to Lesstown.

Her surgery was for an unrelated illness, pancreatic cancer is a death sentence, nothing they can do for it.

She supported Obama, now his forced healthcare is giving her what she gets.

That really sucks.I was raised on blues and I loved those early blues singers.I had always wanted to see Aretha along with Johnny lee hooker.I hope she makes a full recovery.

Pancreatic Cancer is one mutha'-of-a-killer.

My dirt poor Mother-in-law had it and lived longer than Patric Swayze.

Aretha is one of the ladies I grew up with on my radio.

It said that Aretha has less than year to live. I think the song she did that I liked the most was the cover of "Bridge Over Troubled Water" Only Aretha could do it like that!!!

That is sick you are saying she reaped cancer for backing Obama.............that is ridiculous like its a. Death sentence for her politics..........u need to rethink your beliefs because you reap what you sow does not mean that at all...........many people come down with cancer and many have lead beautiful golden lives.....Aretha Franklin has lead a life to be proud of for sure a good christian woman and charity worker.......if she reaps what she sows her rewards beyond this life shall be plentiful have no doubt

there's a time to talk politics and a time to show some human compassion, fitting that Aretha sang of r.e.s.p.e.c.t...

she was a great woman, the world will be by her side! flowerforyou
