I talk to everyone I meet. Of course, that may be because I don't get out very much. I never got the opportunity to meet Tina:
Tina Turner died peacefully on May 24 in her home in Küsnach a town near Zurich, Switzerland, where she was awarded citizenship back in 2013. That same year, she relinquished her U.S. citizenship and from then on called Switzerland her home.
The 83-year-old “Queen of Rock-N-Roll” was suffering from intestinal cancer after being diagnosed with the disease in 2016, but has also been dealing with high blood pressure for more than forty years, the paper reports. Her high blood pressure issues damaged her kidneys and caused failure necessitating a transplant in 2017. She also told fans in one of her books that she suffered a stroke in 2013.
Her health issues were so troublesome to her that she once considered assisted suicide and even joined a group to explore the option, but was convinced by her husband, Erwin Bach, to undergo the kidney transplant, instead. Bach also donated one of his kidneys to her for the operation.
