Some of you will be saying "Who?". Christina Sandera (61) was the partner of Clint Eastwood (94) who starred in Rawhide, the Dirty Harry movies, Spaghetti Westerns and much more, as both an actor and director, for the past ten years.

Christina Sandera died suddenly yesterday and the cause of death has now been given as a heart attack caused by arrythmia and CAD. I have no idea if she knew if she had heart issues. Clint Eastwoodis said to be devasted and looking frai.

What a sad case! I'm sure he must be so upset to have outlived her when there was such a gap...so unexpected.

I know someone who is over 100. He lost his younger wife last year and his "mojo" at the same time. They had been married about 70 years - he was in his early 30s and she was a teen bride. However, he had wanted to outlive her as she had multiple medical conditions and had started to develop dementia, His concern was she would end up alone and confused in a nursing home. I will call him over the weekend as Spa is on, and he always followed F1 and hopefully has started to again.
