“Yes I had a serious headache problem that made it difficult for me to continue singing and dancing, but there were problems within the group that made it difficult for me to stay on. When we did not have money we were a closely-knit item, but once there was money problems started. Even when I was clearly ill people were not patient with me,” she said.
