Nichelle Nichols Hospitalized

According to a post on her facebook page (via Trek Core on twitter), she was taken to the hospital after a mild stroke, and they're doing tests to see how severe it is. George Takei has also tweeted that she was hospitalized.

 

Aw, hope she bounces back quickly!

 

Super classy lady. Sending positive vibes her way.

 

She has not been well lately, but she is one tough women

 

I got to see her in person at the anniversary gala at the Science Fiction Museum in Seattle a few years ago, and she was amazing to listen to. I've been following her on twitter since, and I've been worried that nothing's come over her feed for a while.

 

She seemed very fragile when she was in Australia earlier this year.
My dad had a small stroke 2 years ago and made a 95% recovery and can still drive so I pray its a small one.

 

She's such a sweet lady... I don't think I could take losing another TOS member so soon. :cry

 

*, i wanted to see her at miami supercon later this month. hope she recovers.

 

Sending her positive thoughts. Wanted to meet her for along time but haven't had the chance to yet.

 

Best wishes to her...
