balotelli is too buzzworthy to die at the moment. wait till he is struggling to make it off the bench at real madrid and run out of 'crazy' 'things' to do at least.

― sarahel, Tuesday, 3 January 2012 19:05 (twelve years ago) link
Wow, didn't know that. Just looked it up, and apparently he got a kidney and came through ok: http://njmonthly.com/articles/lifestyle/a-gift-of-life-and-music.html
(sorry, didn't mean to mess up your dead pool; was just surprised to see his name on the list, as I didn't know he'd been sick)
― Let A Man Come In And Do The Cop Porn (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Tuesday, 3 January 2012 19:12 (twelve years ago) link
He's been a couple years post-transplant -- makes him (sadly) a cancer risk.

Ailsa, sorry. whatever you say- though with Liz Dawn, hmm, I kinda remembered she died weeks after Vera died. Strange.

Nah, is ok, just noticed jimmy's list was quite similar to mine :)
I wasn't expecting her to last long when she left, but she's still hanging on in there - she came back briefly last year when Jack was written out.
