Tina Turner she spent her last years withdrawn from public life and treating her health problems. Her last tour ended in 2009 and ten years later, in 2019, she made her last public appearance at the premiere of Tina, The Musical.
He never hid the ailments he had suffered over the years, but he was not used to talking regarding it in front of the press either.
She suffered a stroke a few months following saying yes, I do with her husband Erwin Bach in 2013 and from there things began to get serious. The tests she underwent determined that his kidneys were only working at 35% of his capacity, something that had been aggravated by a hypertension diagnosed in 1978 who never treated with conventional medicine.
At that time, he replaced his medication with a homeopathic treatment that ended up worsening his condition. He recognized his unconsciousness shortly before he passed away.
“My kidneys are victims of not having realized that my hypertension should have been treated with conventional medicine,” the singer wrote in a post last March on the occasion of International Kidney Day.. “I have put myself in grave danger by refusing to face the reality that I need daily therapy and medication for life.”
Years following the stroke, in a new check-up, doctors determined that his kidneys had worsened and were only 20% functioning. At that time they discovered that he also suffered from bowel cancer.
“Why is it important? Because the kidneys fail without pain,” the singer recalled in her publication, with which she promoted prevention once morest this type of ailment. “I don’t remember ever being told what high blood pressure means or how it affects the body,” she later told the European Alliance for Kidney Health. “I considered high blood pressure normal. That’s why I didn’t try to control it.”
Before the Tina Turner’s bad situation, her husband did not hesitate to undergo a transplant and donate a kidney. Luckily, they were compatible.
It was in April 2017 and it meant a great improvement in the artist’s quality of life. “For too long I believed that my body was an untouchable and indestructible bastion” assured in the post.
A reflection that highlights the great social conscience of an unforgettable artist who, following her death, leaves a musical legacy of incalculable value. Music owes a lot to this great rock and roll legend.
