Lady, he's the best example of blue-eyed SOUL!! I'm so sorry for your loss.
What about Michael McDonald? Isn’t he considered blue-eyed soul too?
Thanks Mary for sharing your husband with the world💜
The world has lost a great man. Sorry for your loss.
His song ",What You Won't Do For Love" has always been my all time favorite song!!!
Loved his music. Rest in peace. What a musical genius. His music will live on forever.
Mrs. Mary Caldwell you such a strong and beautiful women a pure Queen, it took alot for you to tell us his fans this. I don't know about others ,but I really appreciate it. I send my love,hugs, condolences and prayers to you sweetheart. To loose a love one is painful 😢😢.
❤🙏🏾
Thank you for sharing Bobby's story. More people need to know about the dangers of fluoroquinolone antibiotics! They are overprescribed every single day and hundreds of thousands of people are being floxed every day. I have struggled for over 10 years due to taking Levofloxacin for a suspected "sinus infection" - after a few days, I couldn't walk. I had a lot of the same issues Bobby did. Neuropathy, tendon/joint pain, digestive issues, (to name a few). It has altered my whole life. We need to keep spreading awareness to the dangers of these antibiotics so people do not continue to be permanently damaged. I'm so sorry for your loss, Mary. HIs memory will live on forever.
How are you now did the symptoms go into remission What the What please let me know I’ve been allergic to antibiotics since I was a kid. And that was the old school stuff the new school stuff no way danger danger stranger danger please tell me more of your journey
@@menotyou6254 Better now, but not out of the woods. I have flare ups often, but I am way better than when it first happened. Everyone is different and some people never heal. I am grateful I have shown some recovery overtime...but some things have also gotten worse.
Gut health is SO important to healing. Sorry you had to go through this! 😥😥😥
My heart breaks for Mary. It is CBS anomaly. This class of drugs is demonic. FLUOROQUINOLONES like Cipro, his cough syrup, laughing gas, etc are NOT tolerated by those with common CBS (sulphur regulating) genetic mutation/anomaly. Snapping tendons are especially common in older victims. I didn't have that happen to me but ended up in a hospital after 3 pills for a UTI in '09 and was floxed (basically 'poisoned') for 6 weeks. It is a VERY dangerous class of drugs. When I was diagnosed with advanced Lyme and co-infections I was grateful for that knowledge - my Dr was determined to treat me w/that when Doxy failed. I refused and they went another route with 🙏🏻 Zithro which I use to this day. It's a very common genetic anomaly with other issues which is why there are so many who were harmed by these drugs. A simple test can confirm it. Refuse this antibiotic unless you are sure. Just look up Cipro/drug class side-effects. It's terrifying! I still suffer with neuropathy years later.
My sister has frequent painful flare ups from fluoroquinolone for the rest of her life. For a long time doctors did not believe her description of flouroquinolone as the cause. DO NOT TAKE flouroquinolone if prescribed to you!
I've seen Bobby live at least 15 times and I wish I could have a 16th time. Thank You Bobby for singing for the brokenhearted. I'll miss you xoxo
As a teenager growing up in Miami FL during the late 70s, I remember listening to Bobby Caldwell singing what you won't do for love. I still believe that his influence, as well as his huge contribution to the industry that he loved, should be among the greats and should never be forgotten or ignored. From his debut album and beyond, his name, voice, stage presence, his sense of humor, and just totally the coolest bar none.
To all the family, friends, and fans like myself, let's keep his memory alive. Bobby Caldwell, we remember you. To life. RIP ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I came here to let you know, I got a thing for him, and I can't let it go... Rest in peace Mr. Caldwell. Thanks for the memories.
I had a horrific response to levaquin. For 3 excruciating days my husband kept asking if it could be the antibiotic? I responded “ it’s only an antibiotic”. On the 3rd day I stopped taking it and I began to improve by day 5. After hearing this tragic story I feel fortunate. I’m sorry for your loss.
Thank you. We miss him badly. Will listen always. You are truly an angel. You are definitely right about antibiotics. I am so sorry for your loss. He will be remembered always.
Mary Caldwell's account of Bobby's tragic story is an excellent public service announcement from which we should all learn. Thank you Katie Couric for posting this video.
Hopefully, blue-eyed soul never dies.
Nothing has brought me greater pleasure than listening to Mr. Bobby Caldwell singing so many great love songs. R.I.P. ❤❤🙏🌹
So sorry Mary, my husband is 70, I couldn't handle losing him as you lost Bobby at 71. I so enjoyed Bobby Caldwell's music!❤ 😢
it's been a year continue to rest Sir prayers for your family
As a recording artist myself who followed Mr. Caldwell's work I can truly say he's one of my legends. I love his work and its a blessing to have experienced such great talent. RIP
Our hearts still mourn the loss of such a great guy, a wonderful husband, and a gifted singer/songwriter. He lives in all of us and the music he created. God bless and keep you Mary.
I cried all day the day he past. Every time I get in my car, the first song on my CarPlay is; What You Won’t Do for Love💞..I miss my husband too. It’s my wedding anniversary 6/26., and I can feel this widow’s pain. 6:19
Mary, I just heard the news. My heart goes out to you.
Rest in Performance, Bobby. You're now entertaining in the cosmos. ❤
I am deeply saddened by this news. I can't believe I missed this. It is tragic!
I was very lucky to have met Bobby twice. The first time in a club after his show in Cleveland, OH. This was during his Soul Survivor tour. I had just started listening to him and traveled 5 hours to this show in a small club on the flats. After the amazing show, Bobby went to the bar and sat there to talk to fans. I admitted I was a new fan and he said it was a thrill to meet me. A "thrill" to meet me. Not nice, not good, but a thrill!
Fast forward a couple of months later and I was lucky enough to see him in Philidephia, PA. We were walking up to the stage, after the show, and security started ushering us away saying Bobby wasmt seeing anyone that night. We started to leave and I saw Bobby in the wings of the stage. I yelled, "BOBBY!" He turned and looked, got a huge smile on his face, snapped his fingers and yelled out, "CLEVELAND!" He then motioned for use to come back stage to the green room. We sat and talked and ate Philly subs for an hour before he had to leave.
What a down to Earth man, performer, and I consider a friend. He will be missed.
❤

I am so sorry. There is nothing more difficult in life than losing the love of your life. To think that it could have been prevented makes the death all the more tragic. Thank you for letting us all know about the antibiotic that is responsible. You’ve saved many lives because of this knowledge.
Bayer got me with Cipro back in 2009. I took just twelve pills over the course of six days (exactly as prescribed) and have been 100% crippled and on SSDI ever since. I'd just turned 30 years old when I had my life completely ripped away from me in ways I never even knew possible. I'm so severely disabled at this point that I can't even leave my house to seek medical or dental care anymore. The last time I saw the outside world was before Covid kicked off. The next time I leave this house it'll be in a body bag. Thank you, Mary, for helping get the word out about this wicked class of antibiotics that have absolutely NO BUSINESS being given out for simple infections. We are being legally murdered by Big Pharma and the inept, corrupt FDA. Unfortunately most people don't know or acknowledge this until it happens to them--and by then it's too late.
Me too. Same year. It stole everything from me.
I'm so sorry this happened to you. You are absolutely on point by saying Big Pharma is legally killing people and ruining lives with flouroquinolines. I'm one of the lucky ones, and I'm so very grateful to have escaped permanent harm. I was prescribed Ciprofloxacin for a UTI in 2007 (before the "black box warning" was added to the label and patient instructions. I took the first pill and went about my day. I was at home and just planned to do a little laundry and cleaning. About 15 minutes after taking that pill I suddenly became severely nauseated, dizzy, began sweating profusely and felt weak. I sat down for just a moment and realized I needed to vomit. I quickly staggered to the kitchen sink (the closest receptacle my mind leapt to) and vomited into the side of the sink with the garbage disposal. I had a death grip on the sink's counter-edge while I violently relieved my body of everything consumed -- it felt like for the past 3 days! It seemed I reached deeper than bile level when the shaking, cramping and spasms finally calmed. I weakly slid to the floor in a sweaty, shuddering heap as the involuntary tears streamed down my face. After a few minutes, I managed to slowly get back to my feet, wash my face with cold water, rinse my mouth and clean up the sink. I collapsed into a chair and called my doctor's office, demanding a different antibiotic -- Amoxicillin or Doxycycline, since I had successfully used them in the past. She seemed surprised that I had had such a reaction and claimed it "could be from something else you ate.". I told her, "No, that's not possible because I hadn't eaten anything since being in your office and the reaction was unbelievably sudden after taking that pill." I'll always be grateful that my body recognized that toxic crap for the poison it is. Since that day I've had flouroquinolines entered into my records as an allergy and I've tried to share the dangers of flouroquinolines. I believe they should only be used as a last resort to fight infections that are unresponsive to other antibiotics with less severe side effects.
Antibiotics are a good thing. I mean even if they had prescribed it to you for the correct infection it still would have caused the reaction. That is unfortunate but not the responsibility of Bayer. There have been many instances where big pharma was doing somthing awful but with certain mediactions there is always a risk you can't remove. A medicine that has no side-effects has no effects at all. I feel for you but sometimes these things happen. I too had some severe side-effects from medication. But allergies are something your own body is responsible for. Not the medication except your doctor knew before and gave it to you still you can't blame anyone. Life sometimes is strange. I am bedridden after Covid since I had a myocarditis half a year before (unrelated to Covid) and therefore couldn't get the vaccine. Then got the infection and since can't stand for more than a few minutes. I wished my life was different. But sometimes these horrible things happen.
@@HappyHermitt I feel you. But allergies sometimes don't show immediately. Happend to me once too. Only after the second time Amoxicillin I noticed rashes. Thankfully not something more severe but I thankfully stopped in time. Unfortunately that is nothing you can blame on the manufacturer. It's your own body going haywire.
Love Bobby Caldwell's Music. Such an unnecessary tragedy 😥. So sorry for your loss. ✌️💖🙏⛪
He had a voice like an Angel. Thank you for sharing Bobby’s story. Such a tragic ending. He is missed.
God bless Mary RIP to Bobby Caldwell our BLUE EYED SOUL BROTHER ❤❤❤❤😢😢
Dear Mary Caldwell,
WYWDFL is one of those songs that embedded deep into my soul after hearing it in 1979. It has always stayed with me. I watched youtube video of Bobby playing it live on Miami Beach. I am shocked and very saddened that Bobby went through so much suffering. But you have shown the world but more important you showed Bobby what true love is.
Thank you Mary and Katie. My husband, daughter, and I are still mourning the loss of Bobby, our favorite singer of all time. We were lucky enough to see him in person three times. Since learning of floxing I've listed it on our medical records as an allergy. My own mother had a devastating reaction from Bactrim that changed her life too, although she lived almost 10 years after it...with dementia.
I have been following Bobby Caldwell since 1978 when he came out with his Mega Hit " What you won't do for Love" " " Heart of Mine" and " Come to Me" are my 3 favorite songs of Bobby Caldwell's, I'm 60 now and still singing to his music RIP 🙏 Brother Bobby Caldwell " The Blue Eyed Soul Man" is what we called Him back then til now 💪❤️
I am so very sorry for your loss. Bobby was a music legend and his songs and his voice will live forever.
Bobby was the BEST- EVER LOVED THIS CAT!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Mary for sharing Bobby’s story. The deviation these antibiotics cause is real and ongoing. It was the second pill for me. The world will miss Bobby’s brilliance. Those damaged by Cipro, Levafloxacin and other Fluoroquinolones, know he was stolen from the world by a careless medical community who aren’t heeding the dire warnings on these antibiotics. There are thousands and thousands of us in many Facebook survivor groups and we are grieving with you and grateful to you for giving us a voice. Fluoroquinolone toxicity is NOT rare. ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Mrs Caldwell you are a beautiful lady your hair is gorgeous😍 sending love and condolences for your loss when I heard Bobby song got a thing for love and I can't let go love love that song❣️ RIP Bobby🎈🎈
I heard the song, What you won’t do for Love in the fall of 1978. Wore out the groves so they say and somehow I knew the song would have a special meaning to me in my life. Don’t ask me how or why but I knew it always haunted me. I played it 1.000’s of times…….i just knew. The decades past and I ended up living in Vegas, not by design but by fate, I never planned it. Almost 40 years had elapsed since I first heard my favorite song….why? I was walking in my casino where I ended up Sunset Station and on a billboard was Bobby Caldwell who was going to perform for one night in a venue called The Club Madrid inside that casino. At the same time my love of my life was not with me …..but I went to the show…..you were there with your daughters….and Bobby sang What you won’t do for love….. decided to play out the song….some people go around the world for love………..you tried everything but you won’t give up…….i went home got a plane ticket …went back to the East Coast….,showed up unexpected and we got back together where we belonged…..my 1978 premonition manifested itself…..True Love like Bobby put into a song will never die…..we are together forever…it’s a true story….i play the song every night his picture is in a frame with the two of us and that heart shaped single,,,,it’s all true….i will meet up with him one day in heaven..,,his still in my prayers…….
He will be missed. Thank you for sharing Bobby's story. This is heartbreaking. He had many more years of singing and we would have listened to every note.
I saw Bobby perform in SF just after my mother's death. His joy brought my out of my gloom.
New nurse here. Sharing this now with all of my new nurse friends. Thank you for the painful but beautiful story. God bless ❤
There is nothing rare about this at all. It's incredibly common but routinely misdiagnosed.
Thanks for sharing this with others in the medical community!
That’s great Amy but why didn’t you know this sooner? The black box warning is 15 years old and has been updated three times since. No excuse for not knowing about it in 2008 when it first came out
Very sorry! I was having gout couple day now stayed home listening Bobby CDs and I just turn on RUclips to check title song I do not remember and this what I see about Bobby
5 years ago my life changed forever from fluoroquinolone antibiotics. Thank you for sharing your story and I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you Katie Couric for shedding light on what unfortunately thousands of us Floxies (and most likely millions of us around the world) already know to well.
Keep fighting. "Forever" in the sense we will never be the same person as before and won't be able to undo the trauma, but we can rebuild and get a lot better. We have to believe that.
I'm just so sorry!! Those antibiotics need to be removed from the market!! My God how many have to die? This is so sad. And those who have survived are crippled. Thank you. Bobby will NEVER be forgotten💔💔💔
Thank you so much for speaking out about the dangers of Fluoroquinolones.
I have been speaking out against them for 2-1/2 years ever since I was floxed by Cipro in 2020.
The doctor AND pharmacist went against all black box warnings. I was 64 and taking Cymbalta at the time.
I developed small fiber neuropathy; the horrific symptoms were almost immediate.
I’m now on IVIG treat which may be lifelong and almost impossible to get (because of the expense).
Be your own health care advocate. No one else pays attention.
So sorry!! I was given CIPRO/NORCO for a supposed diverticulitis diagnosis. I almost died. Never had the disease (ER doc never tested me, just guessed) and finally got properly diagnosed. I have been given antibiotics for years now. Don’t take them anymore. Have had CANDIDA along with them. Have learned to treat it by healthy diet, Senergy kombucha, etc! Helps a lot.
Please and thank you for getting this message out there! The side effects of Fluoroquinolone’s are not rare and in fact the effects of this drug doesn’t always happen right away. I could be months to even years later you could take an ibuprofen or be given novocaine to numb your mouth for dental work and then all of the sudden you are now dealing with tendinitis, pulled tendons, muscle and joint pains, rapid collagen depletion, neuropathy, insomnia, tinnitus, high blood pressure, thyroid problems, weight loss or gain, and worst of all psychological issues coming all just out of the blue while you or anyone has any idea that it was this class of Antibiotics that caused it.
Thank you so much for sharing Mr. Bobby Caldwell, your wonderful husband story. You have made me aware about fluoroquinolone antibiotics. I will always ask questions about antibiotics and other medications. When I first heard, "What you do for love" by Mr. Caldwell I just knew he was a Black Singer, lol. When I found out that he wasn't I said, who cares he can sing and I love that song. He is a Legend and he will be missed but always remembered.
my deepest sympathy on the passing of such a great man he will be missed by all regards neil
His voice will be timeless. Sorry for your terrible loss!
So very tragic. I loved Bobby Caldwell's style of music. It sounded like he and his wife had a beautiful and fulfilling relationship. You don't hear many people say that they take their vows seriously these days. It's much easier to just walk away and give up. So sad. Heart of Mine was one of my favorites. I just listened to it and it brought tears to my eyes. I pray for his wife and family.💔
Bobby started out as one of our S. Florida music family. We had a close and supportive family of musicians down in Dade & Broward counties from the '60s on. RIP, Bobby... you are remembered member of our family.
I am also from Dade county south Florida.. and remember his music back in the late 70s magical times …. And just today I was humming his best song…
Thank you. I had no idea. Playing with Bobby was one of my life's greatest experiences.
RIP Bobby! Thank you for the music, the smooth silky voice, and a jazzy tempo that will chill your soul while relaxing. We will miss you.😔🙏
Thank you, Mary, for sharing your very intimate and tragic story. There was nobody more talented than Bobby. He will be missed.
Thank you so much for sharing this story and the tragic side effects of Fluoroquinolones. I'm having my 31st surgery next week since taking Cipro in 2010 for a UTI. It had crippled me and changed my life and I try to warn patients and doctors about this any chance I can.
I am so sorry to hear that! I hope you will get to a place of healing!🙏🏾💛💪🏾
I have never heard of this happening. Thanks for the info. So sorry for what you had to go through.
Are you kidding? Adverse reactions to antibiotics is very common.
This is very common, just routinely misdiagnosed.
@@markagirard6018 Exactly. My ex husband and his immediate family are all allergic, our son is also👍
Thank you Mary, and my sincere condolences for the loss of Bobby.
Thanks Katie Couric for this great article and video, and thank you Mary for telling us all about what happened. So sorry for your loss. I too was harmed by the antibiotics Levaquin and Cipro and just thought that I would add my story to warn people of just how horrific the damage from these drugs can be. I had multiple tendon ruptures, cartilage lesions that required a transplant from a dead child, blood clots, broken blood vessels, bloated failing veins that had to be carved from 13 entry points, an umbilical hernia, torn lumbar muscles, half a dozen bulging discs, loss of bladder control, explosive diarrhea, shakes and twitches of all sorts, visual disturbances, tinnitus, auditory problems, crumbling teeth, hair loss, nails fell off, disgusting rashes, photo-sensitivity, joint pain, neuropathy, heart palpitations, liver and kidney lesions, collapsed lung and a hundred or more other physical ailments that all set in at once or in rapid succession and which still plague me more than 15 years later. Compared to the Hellish mental anguish I endured, though, all that physical suffering was a walk in the park, or a crawl actually....crawling around wetting myself. I could not think of anything but suicide for several years. I still think about it every hour of every day but not every minute of every hour, so it has improved. I will never be able to run a restaurant again so this is what I do...I warn people and counsel people who have been harmed. Here's an investigative journalism segment I was in a while back that is still considered one of the best on the subject to date.
ruclips.net/video/Scyd59nUG7s/видео.html
Cipro is a neurotoxic, poisonous bioweapon that is often WORSE than the ghastly conditions it purports to treat. I personally and hundreds of thousands of others would rather DIE of anthrax or bacterial pneumonia before being IN THE SAME ROOM with one of these drugs again. If a terrorist group got this into the American water supply, they would cripple HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE virtually OVERNIGHT! Yet you can get it at your local urgent care like CANDY! PRISON for these animals!
I watched. Have your injuries improved? Is it a lifelong injury? I hope you sued the pants off of them
"There is a light that shines" forever in heaven. Rest In Power, Bobby. 🙏🏼😔🕊️
Thank you for sharing Bobby's story, i too have been affected with body wide adverse reactions caused by Fluoroquinolone toxicity over 11 years ago. This horror needs to stop, no one is safe from becoming the next victim to the down fall from these drugs. I am so sorry to hear of your loss, may his loss not be in vain but by telling his story may changes happen to prevent others from this tragedy.
One of my coworkers had that. Was diagnosed 10 years ago and it still comes and goes. He breaks out in painful blisters.
This was heartbreaking to hear. I applaud her for sharing their story, and being the best wife, he possibly could prayed for.
Beautiful nice woman , rip Bobby,
Bobby was a legend with his beautiful voice, lyrics that were so relatable and soulful.
So sorry for your loss, our loss, too❤
Thank You So much for sharing Bobby’s Story He was a Great musician And he will be missed by us all
I loved his voice,I am so sorry about his death in this way,God bless you.❤
Yes Bobby was one of a kind . He will be missed for sure . Thank you for your music . Beautiful Music . I was very saddened like a lot of people were hearing about his death . May he Rest in Peace . Furthermore Praying for his wife as well . She is in my Prayers Always ❤❤️❣️🥹🙏🙏🙏🙏
Since 1991, Bobby was one of my "go to - pick me up" musicians who I was blessed to see play several times live. His love of music writing - one of the best songwriters of the past 30 years or more - will continue on and not too many of us who've graced this planet can say that of their accomplishments. God granted him a gift and he used it so well to make the world a better place.
Thank you for sharing the truth about the dangers of fluoroquinolone antibiotics! I was told the only risk was rupture of the Achilles tendon, and only in athletes. It destroyed my health and when I tried to warn people, the lucky ones piled on to tell me I was wrong. They had taken Cipro and they were fine.
Take comfort in how great your lives were together, and the fact that he wrote one of the best ballads ever, Next Time I Fall.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I thank you for sharing your story. I was given Cipro for a suspected sinus infection in 2010. I've suffered horrific joint pain since then. Some of the damage has gotten better, but there's so much that will probably remain forever. Neuropathy, insomnia, digestive issues, lack of energy, brain fog, to name a few. All my teeth crumbled and broke off due to these antibiotics. The toughest thing I've came up against is the ignorance and arrogance of doctors. I've never found one that believes me and some practically laugh right in my face when I suggest that Cipro caused this type of damage. Thank you spreading the information. I have said so many times, "if telling my story saves one person from this living hell, I've done something good in my life." I know this is a little scattered, my brain doesn't function as well as it used to, yeah...that's due to the Cipro too.
Mrs Caldwell I wish you all of the gardian angles in your live to come over your lost. Thank you for letting us know.
My Dad died after taking those ABs, he got a stroke and felt into coma . He left us after 2 weeks.
I know that it is very dangerous to take ABs from a special older age on, and if you have to take painkillers as well, its even more
killing.
I am sorry for your loss. I MUST say your husband's music helped me make it through life. While serving on a ship in the U.S. Navy in the early 1980s. Mr. Bobby Caldwell helped me make it through a six-month cruise with my sanity. I listened to his "Carry On' album nearly every day. I have compiled a music playlist of "Blue Eyed Soul Singers." Mr. Bobby Caldwell is at the TOP of that list. Mrs. Caldwell your spouse made a difference in his life. I am a big fan of his music legacy that left behind for ALL to enjoy. Bobby I thank you.
First of all my condolences to you and Mary and family Bobby was a major influence in my life I lived on every word he sang I could never get enough of his voice he was fabulous RIP
So sad for your loss. I love his music so much. May God always be there to comfort you and give you strength.🙏❤️
Thank you for sharing your story. I am so sorry! I was recently Floxed and suffering from Achilles tendinitis since November. My prescribing Dr said he would not prescribe anything harmful! Yeah right
Thank you & sincere condolences, Mary.
Thank You Mrs. Robert "Bobby" Caldwell for sharing this with Bobby's fan base! I'll never forget hearing this very sad news but, the news really didn't disclose the cause of death! I'm still in shock and still in tears! My Condolences to you and your Daughter and Family! "Rest in Love" ❤ Bobby! "Rest in Love"! ❤
I usually don't leave comments but I admire you as a loving wife! It' so sad what Bobby went through but he was blessed to have a wife like you! You are a truly amazing human being! Bless you!!
Thank-you for sharing this painful story. I was floxed eight years ago, and I cry for everyone else who suffers the same way, and for their loved ones. The same day my band played our first show, I took this antibiotic. I continued to try to play shows for a few years afterwards too, with extreme effort and great limitations. Just before our first tour, I was ordered to get completely off of my feet; my achilles were like Bobby’s, and were set to snap any time, and I had spontaneous ligaments rupturing. We were forced to cancel. I thought what I had worked for my whole life was just beginning, but it was already the beginning of the end.
Dear Mary,
I wish you all the best and lovefull memories of Bobby!
What a terrible tragedy you both had to go through! Wonderful how you stood by his side!
All the best wishes from Holland!❤❤❤
I know Bobby was the love of Mary's life....he was the joy of my life. I miss him and that voice so much. I know how hard this video must have been to make but it's so informative....thank you Mary!
my sincerest condolences....I can't imagine what he and you must have gone through.....he was such a legend and I am so saddened by his passing and the horrible experience he had....I am so completely broken by hearing of his passing and the pain he endured....I loved his music so much.....
I’m so sorry for your loss. Bobby songs were inspirational. May The Good LORD comfort and provide for you ❤
Bobby was the storyboard of my life. Thank you so much for sharing this.
One Love x
So sorry for your loss, Mrs. Caldwell. May you turn to God for comfort and peace. My beloved sweetheart died over 12 years ago and with God's I was able to get through my loss. ❤🙏
That is so heartbreaking and it really makes no sense why he had to suffer like that. Mrs. Caldwell you are an example of a real Woman !!! Peace, Love and Mercy to you !!! Bobby was such a soulful singer and musician and brought us all so much happiness and love !!! R.I.P. Bobby....
Bobby was special……loved his music….RIP.
A true legend who is sorely missed.💔💔💯
How sad. I was such a fan, still listen to his music. RIP Bobby.🎶💐
Wow, oh I am so sorry for your loss and the world's loss of this truly delightful entertainer. My best friend took me to see Bobby around 2013 at the City of Escondido's, Center for the Arts in CA.
We stood up and danced in the expensive upper box seats on my Birthday 2/12 to be exact...and almost got in trouble. . ..we had had some good tequila that night.
"What you won't do, do for love~ you've tried everything but you won't give up. ..in my world only youoo - make me do for love what I wouldn't do"
🕊️ Peace and Love to you❤
So sorry to hear this. He was an amazing singer .😟
thank you mary for education.
you know how much I loved Bobby. ❤
I'm so sorry this happened to you and your husband. I was a big fan. I found like a CD a year until those weren't a thing anymore. I was a fan looking for him to be like Tony Bennett, too. 😊 May he rest in Heaven.
Your an amazing lady, what you did for Bobby. I enjoyed his music so much. A doctor prescribed me this med, I didn't get it. I lost hearing in left ear from a surgery, to long to go into. I was hoping to get my ear flushed, but its nerve damage. So I thank you for sharing this. May God be with you and Bobby RIP
God bless you, dear lady. And God bless Bobby too for the beautiful gift he shared with the world!
Through his music he touched a lot of people. Race evaporated. Rip Bobby Caldwell!❤
1978: I discovered Bobby Caldwell and his style of singing. I will always love "What you wont do for love" and I regret I never went to his concerts but always loved listening to him on the radio. RIP Bobby.
Thank you Mrs. Caldwell for bringing this very important information to the public. Deepest condolences to you and your family. Mr. Caldwell was an talented and amazing singer/performer and song writer...
Mary C. What A Lovely Guy with a soul voice Like Bobby had so sad for your loss. He shall continue without any doubt. He was so special,xx
You're an angel, dear Mary. Bless you.
great performer, sorry he never came to Australia, I would have been to his concerts with bells on. He sent me with compliments 2 cds which I couldn't get here, a great man
Thanks to you both for the story. Sad to say it’s not new to me. There are over 10,000 of us who have connected the dots. I’m so sorry for your loss, but I’m hoping with. Little fame more will listen. I hope you keep spreading your story. We have screamed for so many years just to be be gaslit by most professionals, as they call themselves. This needs to go national. So we come here to comment to help you. And we truly appreciate you helping our cause. Thank you so much
No edit button. It should have said I hope with a little fame more will listen
Thank you so much for sharing this story. Some RUclipsrs misuse the word "tragic" in their video titles but this story really is tragic. I'm sorry this happened to Bobby Caldwell and my prayers go out to his wife and loved ones. He's gone too soon.
As a floxie, I appreciate attention being brought to the devastation these antibiotics can cause. So many doctors are in denial and still overprescribing Fluoroquinolones. I can no longer walk independently, have pain 24/7, extensive nerve damage, bone damage, torn ligaments throughout my body, extreme issues with my gut…the list goes on. I’m just one of many.
❤ Very sorry.
I’m so sorry this happened and applaud you for speaking up as you have real power to change things for other future victims. Thankyou. Be strong and please continue speaking as many of the victims have no strength left to fight the system 🙏🏻❤
