I seen Darlene on ET last night with her new team of doctors. She's having a hard time of it and wants very much to lose weight. You can send her a note of encouragement at http://etonline.com Just type her name in their search box and it will take you there.

I think I can relate to the reclusiveness. I use to like to be around people, but I went through something traumatic and it got worse. It can be hard to "join creation" again.
You know, I think she is pretty. Just because someone is obese does not mean that they can't be pretty. There are a lot of people who have lost weight and I hope for her that she does achieve that for herself.
I can't stand it when people make fun of someone like Darlene. I knew a kid who was obese and he had a pituitary gland growth problem. No one knows what happens in another person's life, what they may be going through.
I wish she would do more movies, she is a natural with a lot of raw talent. And she seems so nice, that is what matters.

Darlene Cates did a fine acting job in Gilbert Grape. amazing since she never acted. I wonder how much she keeps in touch with the actors from the movie?

She done an absolutely fantastic acting job in this movie. And you know it wasn't easy for her. I always wonder how she's doing.

Was discussing 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape' on another thread and all the thoughts about the movie, all the memories came rushing back. I remember how much I cried at the end of that movie. It was a truly remarkable, heartbreaking and tragic performance for which you shall always be revered. Hope you come back and act in more films because for people like us, Mrs Grape never really died in the film but lived on in our wonderful memories of a wonderful film

I have been a fan of yours since Gilbert Grape. I admire your courage and as a very large woman myself, it makes me proud to see what you have accomplished. Also, Happy Birthday!
