Judge Grants Etta James’ Husband Access To $60,000 For Medical Care

The world was shocked last week when we found out that soul legend Etta James is battling leukaemia and Alzheimer’s disease.
Because of her failing health, Etta’s husband of 41 years, Artis, asked a judge to allow him access to $1 million of Etta’s finances, claiming she was no longer able to handle her own affairs.
Etta’s son, Donto, challenged the request, saying that a third party should be put in charge of the finances to avoid any future conflicts over the money.
The judge met them somewhere in the middle and gave Artis $60,000 to cover them through February 24.
We hope Etta’s health doesn’t deteriorate any more! Keep her in your thoughts and prayers!!
