A comic of huge perportions has left the stage. He was hospitalized for pnemonia a complication of lung disease I hear. He was a huge talent and very funny. He cursed but he had a way of making you see the point. I thought he didn't look right. I thought he was sick with something. So sad. Bye Bernie. Say hi to God and the kids probably aren't as bad up there as they  are down here.

    I couldn't believe this...it happened so fast!  In the hospital for only a week!  I feel like I read that he'd be released from the hospital just yesterday!
     
    He had sarcoidosis, a rare autoimmune disease that didn't make it easy for him to battle the pneumonia.
     
    My thoughts are with his entire family, both relatives and comic family.

    I think it is amazing he was able to keep this under raps and keep working to the very end almost. I will miss him as many others will too I'm sure. Somewhere someone will leave a stage empty with a spot light on it in tribute for Bernie.

    I wasn't aware of his previous condition until I read Daily's comment.  I was wondering about the pneumonia and why this happened so suddenly.

    HH: I see we both posted about this. He certainly was a wonderful talent.

    I knew who Bernie Mac was, but I can't say I ever saw any of his shows, comedy work, etc.  If I did, it's just not ringing a bell.  I heard rumors about his death several days ago, but at the time, they were just rumors.

    My mom was diagnosed with sarcoidosis about 15 years ago.  Although it's under control/in remission she's more prone to bronchitis than she used to be.

    I loved Bernie Mac.  You can catch a lot of his old (read 70's and 80's) stuff on You Tube.  When I found out I spent hours there.
