MaDonna Grimes has passed away

I saw Petra's post that MaDonna Grimes has passed away. It looks like she died from colo-rectal cancer. I feel really bad. Cancer is so cruel and she spent her life living healthy - it's so unfair. It also scares me a littler as I am being treated for anal cancer myself. So sad...

Whoa, how sad I have never done her workouts, but I know she was a force in the industry.

So incredibly sad. Like Bubbles, I have never done her workouts, but I have watched clips of her routines and was in awe of her amazing talent.

Gams, I wish you all the best in your treatments.

Oh no!

I forgot that I read somewhere a while back that she was unwell. How painfully sad
I will do her dance workout tomorrow.

I knew she had cancer, but I was hoping she'd beat it. 2016 really sucks.

So sad to hear about MaDonna Grimes, I didn't know she was sick.

Gams, I wish you success in your treatment and a return to great health!!
