Thanks for your reply.
I'm glad others see the incredible courage and lack of vanity in Ms. Turner that she continues to perform, work, and to cheerfully subject herself to these kinds of opinions despite the fact that she is no longer (1) young, (2) thin or (3) hot.
Her stint as a mentor on HBO to young actors is very much worth watching, and she is as charismatic as ever, very confident and assured. It's great to see her out there like this.I keep thinking I'm a grownup, but I'm not. -

LOL I just read that whole dissertation, and I have one thing to say. beep What a bunch of nonsense.
Get a friggin nose job Kathleen, you could drive a Mack truck up that thing, and go to the gym. 60 is the new 40 so deal with it. -

Thanks for the info on the arthritis. I watched Kathleen on Watch What Happens Live last night and knew that her change in appearance was more than just getting older and gaining weight. Her wit and charm were definitely shining through. Thankfully some of us appreciate people for more than their looks.

I watched The Perfect Family tonight on TV and thought that her weight gain and change of appearance had to do with an illness and medication. Shame that alcohol and steroids for her arthritis took such a toll on her health and appearance. It's a disabling disease that is unbelievably painful. I have athritis in my thumbs and at times want to scream because of the discomfort. I can't imagine dealing with an extreme case. Arthritis meds can weaken the heart muscle and can be fatal. I hope she finds other ways to manage her pain.

A belated but much deserved THANKYOU for posting this. The kind will be understanding and the cruel will continue to be exactly that, but knowledge is never a waste. Cheers.

Thanks for this info. I just watched "Romancing the Stone" on TV, and wondered who this beautiful, talented actress was, and why I hadn't heard of her. My grandmother had terrible arthritis, and I pray that I don't have to suffer through that. I'm glad to see that Kathleen Turner is still acting, and I will watch more of her movies.
