Guest guest Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 Bernie Mack. comedian, passes away for Sarcoidosis issues, age 50. Though his comedy drew on tough experiences as a black man, he had mainstream appeal — befitting inspiration he found in a wide range of humorists: Harpo Marx as well as Moms Mabley; squeaky-clean Red Skelton, but also the raw Redd Foxx. http://news./s/ap/obit_bernie_mac;_ylt=AtikLj40xuvWdPzs3Ggg9m Ks0NUE What Is Sarcoidosis? Sarcoidosis (sar " koi-do'sis) involves inflammation that produces tiny lumps of cells in various organs in your body. The lumps are called granulomas (gran " u-lo'mahs) because they look like grains of sugar or sand. They are very small and can be seen only with a microscope. These tiny granulomas can grow and clump together, making many large and small groups of lumps. If many granulomas form in an organ, they can affect how the organ works. This can cause symptoms of sarcoidosis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
