Linda Ronstadt Has Parkinson's Disease - Can't Sing Any Longer

Eight years ago, Linda Ronstadt started showing signs of Parkinson's Disease. At the time, she continued to sing and do what she had been doing for most of her life. Linda has won eleven Grammy Awards over her career and had a range that made even Mariah Carey jealous. In an interview with AARP magazine coming out next month, the 67 year old singer says the disease has progressed to the point where she can't even sing anymore. She was officially diagnosed with the disease eight months ago. She originally thought her symptoms were from a tick bite.
