Mary Lou is America's sweetest sweetheart of all time. God, please bless her and keep her safe. She is such a source of pride and inspiration to so many people.
I know she still has some struggles ahead of her, but she looks great & still has that positive spirit & glowing smile. Keep it up, Mary Lou; America has your back! Kelly, thank you for bringing this to us; America loves you, too!
Mary Lou has all ways been a very kind and loving person. I watched her in the Olympics and just fell in love with her. Her smile just brighten up the place. Sending prayers and love to you Mary Lou. You’re a special lady. God Bless 🙏🏼✨✨🙏🏼✨🙏🏼✨🙏🏼✨🙏🏼🩷🩷
For those of you who want to know about the REAL Mary Lou Retton. This is a first-hand account of who she really is. I can say this with full confidence, as I am a former friend. She is nothing like the smiley-faced, sweet persona she tries to portray. She is a lying, deceitful, self-centered individual with no care of compassion for others. She is the true definition of a user. This is nothing about Mary Lou’s personality that is genuine. I am sure there is not a single fan out there who loves Mary Lou, more than Mary Lou loves herself. She is more than happy to continuously talk about her accomplishments, and remind you who she is and what she’s done. In all my conversations with her, I can’t remember her ever asking, “How are you”? It all about Mary Lou. If you believe she had “Pneumonia”, I have a bridge I would like to sell you. She is an Anti-Vaxxer who refuses to admit the real reason behind her illness. For someone who preaches the word of God so much, she would walk the walk instead of lying to everyone she comes in contact with.

I so enjoyed her energy and presence at The Olympics with her megawatt smile. I'm a critical care doc and her circumstances are an everyday thing for me. It is really wonderful to see her off oxygen and starting to get her smile and swagger back.
I have had the exact same thing happen to me on Nov. 29, 2023. I was diagnosed with copd, and an unknown pneumonia. I am following Mary Lou’s health, and we are recuperating at the same level. Prayers for Mary Lou.
She looks amazing! Sending positive vibes!!!! You’ve got this. A similar thing happened to me. They said it was pneumonia and then on top of it bilateral Covid pneumonia which put me in the hospital and on oxygen for several months. It’s been two years and I still can’t catch my breath. I wonder if that virus was the culprit.
Thank you Kelly for sharing your show about Mary Lou. I remember very well with her on tv. She was so amazing while she was in Olympic. I’m supporting her and her team. Now Simone Biles. I’m praying for her health to get better 🙏🏻 I had pneumonia and was in ICU almost 2 weeks and slept for 4 days. I understand how she feels. I love you Mary Lou!! 🤟🏻of course I’m Deaf.
They have some weird fungus in texas they give the report on the news every morning,when i was there i thought it was a strange mornng report,but made me think of the sun factor to be reported which some stations do now,wishing much healing to mary lou
I wonder if she inhaled something in that nail salon that caused a bad reaction that elevated into pneumonia. It's how you can't walk outside now without mysterious viruses, bacteria, COVID invading our bodies. I'm glad she is doing better and pray she continues to heal and recover.
I get the "mom guilt" thing. When my dad died very suddenly, I was the first one to be able to get to the hospital. I knew it was bad, but I wasn't ready to see him unconscious and on life support and it hit me hard. To this day, the 1st image in my mind when I think of him is that and I hate it. So when my mom died years later, it was hard to go in the room, because I did not want that to happen with her memory.
It's been 40 years and she's only 56?! She was just a child when she did her perfect 10 routine. Wow. This has to be a post-covid issue. The pandemic is nowhere close to being over, and it kills and disables more people all over the world every single day. I wonder what type of pneumonia she had. I know a few people who developed pulmonary fibrosis, like Mary Lou has, after a covid infection. 500 Americans are dying per week, and it's probably a lot more than that. Because hospitals no longer have to report covid data to the CDC.
Sorry for her ailment, but I take issue with someone who has a very nice home, drives a Porsche Macan, yet doesn't have health insurance and collects almost $500K in donations to pay medical bills.
@@gingergarcia9295 doesn’t matter if she spent a dollar , imagine getting your nails done without having health insurance , then have your daughters beg for money , no self respect .. only thing dumber is ppl that sent her money 🤣
Mary Lou harmed many modern female gymnasts by taking the side of organizations, coaches, and doctors who abused them. Is she a legend? Yes. Have I lost respect for the way she ignored, deterred, and didn't stand up for those athletes who followed her when she was in leadership with USA Gymnastics and had power to help them? Absolutely.
She says she’s practically destitute yet she talks about spending $500 at a nail salon ?? She also claims it’s because of her divorce .sounds more like she mishandled her money
Maybe her daughters paid for her? Regardless, she has suffered something I’m sure you wouldn’t want. Give me a break. People talk shit behind their computer.
@@victoriafisk9712one trip to the hospital would bankrupt most people without insurance. That’s why we pay so much for insurance and hospitals over bill for those who do not have. The medical system in this country needs total restructuring. It’s totally corrupt. Big pharma and these huge medical systems are making billions. Cancer is a huge moneymaker. That’s why we’ll never see a cure.
@@plicdat5474 Geez...I was defending her! I could care less how she spends her money. She herself has said in interviews that when she got sick she couldn't work. Because she was self employed, she lost her insurance. As a result the bills started piling up both medical AND day to day. So, give ME a break! Reread my comment. I didn't say anything criticizing the $500 OR the destitute comment that she has said herself. She ALSO said that the picture in front of the salon was taken the day before and she was fine, which I was trying to point out in her defense. Personally, and it's just my opinion, which I'm sure you'll try to twist, It sounds to me like she was exposed to and had a severe reaction or poisoning to a chemical or combination of chemicals in that salon that attacked her lungs.
She did not ask for money. She was clinging to life in ICU. Her daughters organized the gofundme drive because MaryLou was uninsured at the time. Do better research.
Yet she kept the money! Why didn’t her daughters help her with health insurance. Y’all have seen her home, imagine the taxes she pays. Priorities in life.
"i pulled through for whatever reason'. THE REASON IS BECAUSE OF THE MEDICAL TREATMENT YOU GOT! without that you would be dead!! come on..give all the credit and praise to the humans and the medical technology they have invented that made your recovery possible. she didn't even mention that and its such a slap in the face to those people that saved you!!!

So iconic. Marylou Retton will always be americas sweetheart.
Iconic symbol of the games.
What a beautiful spirit. She’s Olympic tough and that’s why she’s still here.

The GOAT of gymastics. A 10 in every aspect of her life. 🥰
So glad you are with us still! ♥️

Mary Lou Retton is an amazing woman
True Champion!!
Thank you Kelly for sharing your show about Mary Lou. I remember very well with her on tv. She was so amazing while she was in Olympic. I’m supporting her and her team. Now Simone Biles. I’m praying for her health to get better 🙏🏻 I had pneumonia and was in ICU almost 2 weeks and slept for 4 days. I understand how she feels. I love you Mary Lou!! 🤟🏻of course I’m Deaf.
Oh my gosh! The messages from her '84 teammates?! Someone's cuttin' onions in my house.
Mary Lou 🧡🧡🇨🇦
I'll never forget her olinpics I was real young but he's my idol
Maybe it was the fumes from inside the nail salon? Some of those can be pretty toxic to inhale! Keep shining Mary Lou. You look amazing!
Normally it’s from a cold or etc. it leads to pneumonia
need more stories about those sisters
Power of prayer🙏✝️
Sending up prayers for Mary Lou. Life has its ups and downs, but a saving faith in Jesus will last forever!
Definitely she's a miracle of God. Nobody would ever have 40 years of friendship into gymnastics like this. OUTSTANDING INFORMATION 😊
Glory to God❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
love her! adore her! nothing more to say
They have some weird fungus in texas they give the report on the news every morning,when i was there i thought it was a strange mornng report,but made me think of the sun factor to be reported which some stations do now,wishing much healing to mary lou
I hope she gets better and they find what's wrong .
I think she pulled through bc she’s an American legend and champion.
I wonder if she inhaled something in that nail salon that caused a bad reaction that elevated into pneumonia. It's how you can't walk outside now without mysterious viruses, bacteria, COVID invading our bodies. I'm glad she is doing better and pray she continues to heal and recover.
All those chemicals in nail salon could have triggered something!
I guess Mary Lou Retton and her daughters are going to do a GoFundMe for Skylar and Penelope

I had the biggest crush on her as a little boy.
❤❤❤❤❤
OMG🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Did she get the "JAB?" That would explain a lot. I'm so happy she survived.
❤🙏🙏🙏
You would think that she would go into Broadcast journalism and not acting… But to each their own! 🤗
I love Mary Lou Retton, did she take the MRNA shot? If so could that have caused her illness?
I wonder if something in the salon they where are, could have hurt her. Each person reacts differently to chemicals.
It wasn't her time to go, she has too much to do, that's why she's still here.

Hate to think it but I really wonder if it's a side effect of a certain medical procedure they wanted all of us to get. Praying for her.
The vaccine is not a medical procedure. Probably so!
I totally agree and I'm sure it is.
Maybe there something in the nail salon.
Thinking exact same thing. Reaction to chemicals?
I think she was sick. But lead to this. Sometimes we don’t know
Did Mary Lou get the shots????
Most likely
So why didn’t she have insurance?
She’s probably self employed. Doing speaking gigs doesn’t provide insurance.
She spent 500 bucks at a nail salon but yet didn’t have health insurance 😱, priorities
She was exaggerating you couldn't tell by the fluctuation in her voice. 🙄🤷♀️
@@gingergarcia9295 doesn’t matter if she spent a dollar , imagine getting your nails done without having health insurance , then have your daughters beg for money , no self respect .. only thing dumber is ppl that sent her money 🤣
Have the jab?
Uh...Huh...
She’s notoriously anti vax
@@millers3888 good for her
@@millers3888she may have had to get it who knows
The big guy upstairs you mentioned? His name is Jesus! ❤️🙏
🎯
AMEN!
One question: Did she get the Jabba dabba do?🤔
It's odd that's never mentioned.
People need to question everything!
I think the chemicals in the nail salon did you in Mary Lou!
Nail salon, hmmmm.
Kelly does not get it. 😢
Wow, whatever she had really hurt her….
Nail salon effects is circunstancial. More like genetic predisposition. Many non- smokers with health habits die from lung cancer
She’s lucky she has fans who paid for her medical otherwise she’d have to sell her house. Her daughters would have to pay for her medical too.
She could just claim bankruptcy. Happens all the time.

I wonder if she’s vaccinated?
Yep!
I would think this is some kind of virus or possibly Lyme disease. Maybe out of country medical advice?❤❤

Dear Ms Clarkson, would you consider a different colour of lipstick? A bit more subdued ? I think it will emphasise your other good features
Her bangs lip color…. A bit taylor swift doesnt work for kelly
You do you, Karen.

Huh?
Mary Lou Retton needs health insurance can someone help her with filling out the form.

Like you were there. Get a life.
I am with you on that and the fact that she asked folks to contribute $$$ for her "medical care".
