The day Elvis died. Came home from school & saw that no supper was on the stove nor any signs of cooking in the kitchen I found my mom lying on her bed staring at the ceiling. "Elvis died". I walked across the hall to my room & cried my eyes out all night long. My father ordered a pizza for my brothers and said we were a couple of nuts.
Yes its so sad. She says she has Lyme disease, hopefully it’s that and she’s not misdiagnosed and really has something genetic in her family. I know she’s still at trying to find treatment for because she recently went to Switzerland to see if that would help. Who knows what they knew about their own medical history, Lisa and Riley I mean. I made a twitter thread about how her stomach surgeries were treatment for her health problems but she was better off not having some of them and why she missed the heart attack signs. I can share it if you want.
This book is a hypothesis, people consider it is the be and end all with Elvis. Read Anita Wood's book, Elvis was doing uppers and others as far back as 1957. The book hits a certain market of Elvis fans who don't want to believe that Elvis did this to himself. There are a huge amount of Elvis fans who are well-read, who appreciate Elvis for who he was, we don't need a pedestal to put him on. He loved the feeling the drugs gave him and so do most who do them to be clear. Ask Sally to give some proof of the Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency because there is none.
I love that you're so sure that what you're saying is correct and what she says isn't. You ask for proof, yet you provide 2nd hand information as your only proof. I don't see anywhere she is placing him on a pedestal. She says that there were times he took the pills that basically felt good. Meaning, he got high. Well, if you are taking these types of drugs for months, nevermind years you are going to build up a tolerance and need to increase dosage. You will also get a taste for trying to feel either euphoric or numb. It doesn't have to be black and white. There are shades of grey and Elvis just like every other person in the world can't be summed up to being a 2 dimensional human.
Once you like the feeling or “need” the feeling you begin addiction. I’m not one to disagree with you on the pills being responsible for his early death. He may have lived a few years longer without them. But not many. I have CVID. I have never drank or done drugs. I’ve had infections all my life, multiple stomach surgeries, I have severe arthritis an enlarged heart and I’m in liver failure. I’m 58. So don’t discount the seriousness of the condition. Of course Elvis had an addiction and he wasn’t a perfect person but maybe the people who think he wouldn’t have died young should be grateful for not having serious genetic conditions and have a degree of compassion for non -drug related conditions he had that weren’t diagnosable until the 1990’s!!!
Amazing book. Answers all the questions about Elvis's health problems. Amazing interview s well.
❤️❤️
Thank you for this interview. I wonder now, after Lisa Marie’s death, if anyone is revisiting her book. More evidence of her theory!
I sure hope so. The evidence is there and I think it’s important to acknowledge when you look at the family genetics. 🫶🏼
Speaking with Sally soon! Great interview!
Yay! Sally is the best!
I have an Elvis shirt too. I wore it on his birthday last week.😊

Elvis's oldest granddaughter Riley has auto immune issues.
