The Babbling Bee's are sad to say, we woke up late last night/early this morning to the news of yet another celebrity's passing... Yvette Wilson who you may all know as Andell Wilkerson of the hit TV shows, Moesha and The Parkers has lost her battle with cervical cancer and is no longer with us. Via her The Parkers co-star, Ken L's Facebook page, he reached out to the fans to give us the news.
"My co-star Yvette Wilson transitioned today.
She was a very talented, and nurturing figure in my life.
Her physical presence will be missed. R.I.P. Loved One... :/"
-via Kenneth Lawson's personal Facebook page
Yvette was not only battling cancer, she was also suffering from problems with her kidneys and was in need of a kidney transplant. Her friend Jeffrey Pittle created a website so that people could donate money to help with her medical expenses (medical bills and assistance with transportation costs.) The website raised 56% of the $25,000 needed.
While we write this post to give you all the news, we also share this with you so that you can all take heed. Cancer of any kind does not target one specific type of person or group of people. So do your part and call up your doctor, schedule an appointment and know your history. It could be the difference between life and death.
-RC!
