    Dr. Danielle Spencer .
    A beautiful woman, heart and soul. I'm so happy she can walk again. She has been through so much pain, mentally and physically.
    She deserves everything beautiful that life can possibly give her. ✝️🛐

    Whoever guided her should be praised. You have a woman who rode the highway of stardom but got off at the right exit. You can see in her attitude that she enjoyed her acting career but successfully closed one chapter and opened another. This is how to dot it! Forever a fan. Buy the DVD set of the series, it is well worth it.

    Several of the stars from What's Happening literally went through hell and passed away at a young age. Dee's a real fighter!!! I would love to meet her someday. Mabel lost both of her legs and an arm because of diabetes and died young. Shirley died at 52 at home from kidney failure and Freddy died at 52, as well. He was home recovering from a stroke but his death was listed as natural causes. They were a huge part of my childhood and it's a damn shame their lives ended so young!

      She needed surgery on a disk in her back which her surgeons believe was damaged from a car accident she had when she was young. When she had surgery on her back years later after experiencing having difficulty walking, she was paralized from her breast down after the surgery. So, she uses the walking sticks, but she is still quite active and is an amazing person.
