    That article gets her age wrong. She was 55. Born July 8, 1969, as confirmed by her sister.

      That makes more sense. I was in elementary school when season 1 came out and she would’ve gotten the VA job for production right at like age 18/19 with no resume for such a major project.

    This is not a political statement. If you are a woman and are unable, or choose not, to have children, please have yourself more regularly screened for breast, uterine, and ovarian cancers.

    Women who do not have children are at a higher risk for these types of cancers as well as other disorders. Doctors don’t always recommend increased screening for childless women despite the increased risk.

    And, in general, women should regularly do self exams of their breasts for lumps or changes in the breast tissue, ideally as a part of your shower/bath routine.

    I might be mistaken but I think she also voiced Jigglypuff, Vulpix, and Goldeen

    So sad to see another person become a statistic in the fight against cancer. My heart goes out to her and her family.

    I hate to make something like this political but Republicans in the senate just rejected a bipartisan bill that would have increased funding for finding a cure for cancer.
