Is Michael Jackson Dying?

Posted by Karen Sugarpants

 

Sources are concerned about some pictures of the pop star that recently surfaced.

Jackson was seen wearing a hospital mask and being pushed in a wheechair.  It's reported that the former pop star is financially drained, which has resulted in the demise of his health.  Sources say he is depressed and it's affecting him physically.  

“There are constant rumours of a Michael Jackson comeback but it was shocking to see that in reality he is a shadow of his former self.

“He seemed too weak even to get out of the chair to cross the road himself. He stayed in the store for two hours and wheeled himself around in the chair the whole time.

“The skin on his hands was peeling, almost like a snake’s. He kept his mask on all the time. His security man was at his side and nobody approached him. It is really sad.”

Jackson turns 50 in August but has the appearance of someone much older.  He is fraile and gaunt.  “He has days when he is fine but others when he feels listless and too weak to walk. Then he calls for the wheelchair.

“Usually on those days he also refuses to get dressed, spending all day in his pyjamas.” 

“Jacko is struggling for money and needs to work. “There’s huge interest in a comeback, but there are doubts that Jacko can pull it off. He isn’t strong enough — mentally or physically.”

What nonsense, if he was so weak how could he have wheeled himself around for 2 hours?

This is a lesson to all those who do not accept themselves the way they are. Can you imagine that Michael with all his money and most expensive treatment has reached the end of his tether, how much more those with less money who want to make changes to their bodies? Believe you me man can never win, God has the last say. We were all made in Gods image and we are all unique wether we have big noses, fat, thin etc. None of us will ever be fully satisfied coz the thin ones want to be fat, the tall ones want to be short. I believe each one of us is so unique that there is no other like us. Lets accept our selves the way we are. Remember there was a time every one wanted to be model thin and people started to die from anorexia and Bolemia. Then emerged the confident full figured Beyonce, now every one wants a booty. Its all about inner confidence, once you have it every one will want to be like you. So the challence to all of us is lets build our inner confidence.

Seriously? Who ever believed that Michael Jackson changed his skin because he thought it would look better is a total idiot. He had a bad skin condition! He had to have plastic surgery or else he would of, maybe, died!

i agree with chizo.. GOD did make us the way we are and if he intended on us being another way he would have made us that way, i think we should be happy the way we are GOD is so we should.

 Hi all. Truely I don't know what is going on in that picture, because I'm not there. No-one, not one sole can bad talk Michael,he is as unperfect as anyone else. I must say all though I love Michael's style: his singing, his dressing, and his dancing every since I was a little girl, I've idolized him. When he played in that movie Wizard of Oz. I fell in love with him all over again, and everytime he came out with another song; and a different style-I fell in love. Not with him, but I must say I fell in love with his beautiful, and wonderful talent. he's a beautiful person just like everyone else-whether you believe it or not. If he perishes God Bless his sole. Michael, honey if you are depressed, step up and be a man, a beleiving man, and live life. You turned 50, your life as you know-your new life has only just begun. Your a strong man, and I know you beleive in the Lord our Saviour. Keep keeping on. Your still alive. God Bless, you and your family Michael.
