      ​@@evieashton8099might be, we don't know. Many cancer patients don't tell anyone until they're visibly getting sick, or are close to the end! I would also choose to not tell anyone, including family.
      I know for many, the thought of not telling your family, or your friends everything, can seem weird. Personally, unlike most, I just never will talk about my sex life. No matter what. Not even with my partner.
      Why? Because it doesn't matter, things like your number or just what you've done in general. Medical stuff (which I have wayyy more of than anyone I've ever known, or seen) is also a thing I just won't ever talk about, with anyone for any reason.
      I don't get why people would ever need to know that sort of sensitive information!

      The reason why a human could be creative or active is when they broken or created a bubbles of world in which they experience excess emotion outburst.
      A sadness that would leave a scar on the heart.
      A happiness that makes a man looks like a saint with his bright smile.
      A grieve that makes even the most psychopath sympathize.
      When an explosion of emotions occurs in a person, even insignificant individuals with no power in the society could pave a path of a new era in which their idealism could be created just from the outburst of those emotions which looks like a wheel of fire that would not stop until the extinguisher sprayed from their own hands and created by themselves.
      Of course that is for those with ambition to create an ideal world, an artist would have an ambition of creating a song that are created according to their outburst of emotions like this song, "Stay with me" which comes from sadness and a speck of loneliness.

    Truly, her life is a literal story of all emotions.

That’s when she regretted most of her career wishing she did spend time with her husband, family and friends more and sadly resorted in her death later on, that’s why you really didn’t see or hear her in the 90s because that’s what she primarily doing. But she admitted to not wanting to do anything else but wanting to be a singer she was drawn to japans night life in the 80s.

      this is the truth- there is a spiritual war that influences the physical world. The people in power in power worship an entity named lucifer. That name is only found in The Bible and satan tried to tempt Jesus Christ with all the kingdoms of the world if He bowed down and worshipped him. Jesus did not but the people with the most influence- celebrities, politicians, billionaires, etc- they have. The first description of satan in The Bible is that he is subtle- and in the world the media subtly leads people away from the truth. The only religious figure that these people are against is Jesus Christ. Do not be turned away by the name of Jesus- this is the truth and the video proves it beyond any amount of doubt. I know the video is long but look at the comments from the people that watched the video if you want to know it’s credibility. This satanic group is what people call the illuminati.

We must not forget the masterpiece that she has repeatedly created with her own hands and voice. We have to remember what REAL MUSIC is. Fate played a cruel joke on Miki, taking her life, but what fate could not take away was a piece of Miki herself, her music. No matter who you ask, "the voice of a musician that you will never forget," everyone will answer "Stay with me." And this is an unconditional victory. 💔 Miki would be happy..
