Natalie Cole In Need Of New Kidney

Natalie Cole In Need Of New Kidney

Natalie Cole had to be hospitalized for health issues last September.

The singer has been diagnosed with Hepatitis C and has been trying to battle the disease with chemotherapy. The 58-year-old Cole is currently waiting for a kidney transplant. That would help put an end to the dialysis she has to undergo three times a week!

On a positive note, it seems like her son, 31-year-old Robert, may be a donor.

She said during an interview on Tuesday, “My son may be a possible [donor] match. It’s very sweet and kind of strange to have people offer something like that.”

Cole is a fighter! Despite her medical issues, she didn’t let that stop her from touring worldwide the past six months.

Let’s hope she gets a transplant soon and recuperates quickly.

P.S. Natalie used to be a hardcore druggie back in the day, which probably contributed to her health woes.
