Unfortunately, Tina Turner’s health deteriorated significantly, prompting her final return to America to say goodbye.
Unfortunately, Tina Turner is extremely ill. She also returned to the United States for the last time to say goodbye.
Tina’s Broadway Debut — The Tina Turner Musical brought Tina and her husband, Erwin Bach, back to America for the first time in years, the nation she renounced her citizenship.
She decided to greet and thank her supporters on this particular day.
Born Anna Mae Bullock, Tina worked as a young girl picking cotton in the fields near Natbus, Tennessee. Tina’s upbringing was marked by suffering, deprivation, and cruelty.
His parents abandoned him in his early years.
“Mommy wasn’t kind,” Tina said. She was happy when I became famous because I gave her a house. She was my mother, that’s why I did everything for her.
I tried to make her feel comfortable because she was alone and didn’t have a husband, but I still didn’t like her.
After meeting in a nightclub in 1962 in St. Louis, Tina Turner’s marriage to Ike Turner, whose Rhythm and Blues Band later became the Ike & Tina Turner Revue, may have been influenced by this childhood trauma.
We are aware of what happened before she met and married Ike Turner.
Fame, prosperity, as well as daily blows to the mind, heart, and body.
That was enough after the violent coup in 1976.
Along with the divorce process, she decided to take back control.
Despite everything she had been through with Ike, she found that Erwin, a German-born music producer, was the complete opposite of who she was.
He was kind.
He had kindness.
He appreciated it.
He was very calm. “He was very different. Such comfort. When she first met her future husband, German music producer Erwin Bach, at an airport 27 years ago, Turner remarked: “He seemed very modest. “I really needed love. All I had to do was adore the individual.
According to Bach, 65, their attraction is more than just a spark.
I often call it an electric charge,” Bach noted in the paper. “It’s love — it’s something we both have for each other.” I still own it. That emotion is still present in me. inside me
She renounced her American citizenship at the time of their wedding in 2013, despite having lived in Switzerland for more than 20 years and they have been side by side since 1985.
And barely three weeks after their wedding, she had a stroke that left her speechless.
Every minute of every day, Erwin was there to help her heal – until she was able to speak and sing again.
She was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2016.
Doctors removed the malignant part of his colon.
Erwin walked every day.
After years of taking homeopathic remedies for high blood pressure, this resulted in kidney failure in 2017.
What did Erwin do to show his love for the woman?
He gave one of his kidneys and it was beautiful, much like their relationship.
In her 2017 biography, Turner Turner: My Love Story, she stated, “I know my medical adventure is not over.” We’re both still here, closer than we ever thought, and that’s a reason to be happy, she continued, adding that “there’s always another test, another doctor or biopsy to go through.”
She joined the Swiss organization Ekit for medical assistance in Dying, which advocates the right to die.
The chemicals in my body were starting to affect me, even though it wasn’t my idea of ​​a good time. Three years ago, she wrote about her experience in her book “I Couldn’t Eat”. I didn’t live, but I survived. I started thinking about wrongful death. I could accept that it was acceptable when my kidneys failed and it was time to leave. When the time comes, the time comes.
He appreciates having the freedom to make decisions on his own terms and at his own pace.
Knowing she has a group to turn to gives her comfort.
(Three years ago I went to Switzerland to visit a dear friend who had progressive multiple sclerosis and decided to die with dignity. She was glad she had the opportunity to use Dignitas.)
In 2019, her 59-year-old son Craig committed suicide while still recovering.
She thinks loneliness killed her.
Just weeks after Craig died last year, Turner described her initial shock at the news in an interview with Oprah Winfrey. “At first I didn’t believe it, because Craig said to me a while ago, ‘Mom, I’m very pleased now.’ He had recently renovated his apartment and had a new woman in his life, Turner recalled. But on our last call, he told me, ‘I just want to hear your voice and that laugh.’
Buddhism holds that you keep coming back to earth and living until you are right. I think he will have an easier life in the future,” she said. “I believe he is doing well.”
My saddest moment as a mother. On Thursday, July 19 2018, I said my final goodbye to my son, Craig Raymond Turner, when I gathered with family and friends to scatter his ashes off the coast of California. He was fifty-nine when he died so tragically, but he will always be my baby pic.twitter.com/XzZQCdz8tl

My most depressing time as a mother. As I gathered with family and friends to spread the ashes of my son Craig Raymond Turner off the coast of California on Thursday, July 19, 2018, I said my final goodbyes to him. He was 59 when he sadly passed away, but he will always be my baby.
My most depressing time as a mother. As I gathered with family and friends to spread the ashes of my son Craig Raymond Turner off the coast of California on Thursday, July 19, 2018, I said my final goodbyes to him. He was 59 when he tragically died, but he will always be my baby.
“Fifty years ago I was so depressed that I overdosed on sleeping pills in an attempt to kill myself.”
She also says that Buddhism saved her life.
In her new book, Happiness Becomes You: A Guide to Change Your Life for the Better, Tina Turner illuminates her journey to inner peace by describing how her Buddhist practices helped her through the most difficult times of her life.
In an excerpt released by People, Turner says, “I truly believe that age is just a number and I’ve never let age get in my way.” Not at 42, when some would say I was past rock star age. not now, at the age of 80, when the book I’ve wanted to write for years is finally in your hands. I’m over 80 years old, but I still don’t feel like I’ve “made it” because I’m constantly trying to grow, step out of my comfort zone, improve my life, and serve others.
Fortunately, she was taken to the hospital where she made a full recovery. Several others soon after advised me to try chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo and learn the Buddhist precepts, she added. “I found this concept to be valuable and made perfect sense to me as I learned more about it. My life was actually saved by Buddhism and I have been chanting joyfully every day for the past 50 years.”
Tina and Erwin are currently visiting New York for the next two weeks.
Erwin is 65 and she is 81 with several health issues.
Erwin reported, “She said, ‘I’m going to America to say goodbye to my American fans and I’m going to finish it.'” That, I believe, is the conclusion of the documentary and the TV program.
According to Tina, it was not a good existence. The positives did not outweigh the negatives, she claimed. My life cannot be described other than to say that it has been brutal. The truth is like this. It’s real. You have to accept it because it is what you have.
We all have the capacity for unshakable bliss and I think we already have everything we need to be happy. All we have to do is touch it. A truly happy existence, in my opinion, means having optimism and self-belief no matter what challenges we may face, knowing that our inner guidance can help us make wise decisions.
We always have a choice, even if it seems insignificant, like choosing to be grateful for a special memory or to think more positively.
Tina Turner’s return to America for a final farewell is a deeply emotional and significant moment in her life. It represents the final chapter of a remarkable journey full of hardships and triumphs. Tina’s resilience, strength, and unwavering spirit shine through, reminding us all of the power of perseverance and the pursuit of happiness. As she says goodbye to her American fans, her legacy as a musical icon and beacon of inspiration will continue to resonate for generations to come.
