- EDITED 6/24, 4:29 PM:
Earlier I stated that Toni Braxton made an appearance on The Montel Williams Show. It has been brought to my attention that this morning’s show was a re-run. It seems Montel’s show got the ax back in May. We here at Sandrarose.com regret the error.
We all know that Toni Braxton canceled her Las Vegas shows due to illness. But the National Enquirer has the sultry R&B singer on her last legs. According to the National Enquirer, Braxton is on her death bed rest and could push off at any minute.
Toni’s lengthy history of health problems has contributed to a damaged heart valve. The valve is very weak, and even the slightest bit of overexertion could result in a rupture of heart failure. Toni’s health is so fragile that she’s being ordered to stay in bed as much as possible and to limit her physical activity.”“The surgery is very dangerous and there’s no guarantee it would be successful….Toni has been told that, in many cases, this condition can be stabilized with medication and bed rest. But if that doesn’t work, she could literally drop dead of heart failure.
Well, if that’s the case, why was she performing on The Montel Williams Show this morning? If her heart valve was that weak she wouldn’t be strong enough to make guest appearances anywhere much less sing.
Endocarditis is a very serious infection of the heart valves. It is notoriously difficult to treat and most patients are given a poor prognosis. But if caught early enough and if treated aggressively with IV antibiotics, patients can recover and live normal lives. Clearly Toni Braxton is living her life and loving every moment of it!
