Miss Brahms has more than measles!

I was shocked and saddened recently to learn that actress Wendy Richard has once again been diagnosed with cancer. Like many others, I remember Richard as Miss Brahms from the long-running British comedy show Are You Being Served?, and I'd likewise been aware of her being a breast cancer survivor. But apparently the cancer has spread throughout her body, to her kidneys and bones—very bad!

What makes this particularly sad is that it wasn't too long ago that another Are You Being Served? alum, John Inman, left us. I'll keep my fingers crossed for Wendy Richard, though if the worst happens and she must leave us, I hope her final hours are joyful and free of pain.
