I was just a kid when he was President, but I remembered my Dad being saddened when Ike was hospitalized for a severe heart attack after he left office.

Ike was a very good ARTIST.

MANY people do not know about the private life of Ike... My "UNCLE BILL" told me all about it, many times...

He had a farm outside of Gettysburg , PA...
A very cool farm...
Not sure if it is open to the public now or not...
I went there with UNCLE BILL before it was open to the public...when "BESS" still resided there,
I saw many ORIGINAL IKE PAINTINGS all over the house...he painted in a " open impression style"
Not an illustrative exact picture like style...but a loose interperative style...many of his paintings had stark subdued colors...several of his paintings were from EUROPE during the war or painted at home after the war from pictures...

It is a very cool place.

Pretty sure that had something to do with the drugs in her system. They weighed her down and held her under the water or something like that. That's what I heard...Anxious

Believable.

I mean, if heroin and cocaine can cause "sleep apnea" in Princess Leia, then anything's possible.
