That's weird

[BikerDude]

So I was reading the new online and I saw a thing about how Joni Mitchell had been hospitalized and that she had been suffering from a controversial disease called "Morgellons Disease".
I then stumbled across an article that I read and thought "Poor Joni Mitchell has gone batshit nuts".

She (Joni Mitchell) says...

The 71-year-old singer first discussed her battle with Morgellons in a 2010 interview with the Los Angeles Times, telling them she had "this weird, incurable disease that seems like it's from outer space." Her vivid description left many fans concerned: "Fibers in a variety of colors protrude out of my skin like mushrooms after a rainstorm: they cannot be forensically identified as animal, vegetable or mineral."

In 2013, she told The Star, ?I haven?t been doing much lately because I?ve just come through about seven years of a flattening kind of illness. I?m not cured but I?ve found a helpful physician way outside the box. Western medicine says this doesn?t even exist; it?s a psychotic disease. It?s not.?

Joni Mitchell Talks New Boxed Set, Not Being Able To Perform: 'I Don't Miss Much of Anything'

"I can't fly without consequences at this point," Mitchell told Billboard in a 2014 interview. "I can fly off to Canada, that's about all I can handle. And I'm sick on both ends for about 10 to 12 days. It's all that heavy metal in the air, and also viruses. My immune system is also very taxed, and the metal that comes off the exhaust and gets into the cabin and gets into my system...just being delicate. I'm always jetlagged so touring was always hard for me. And now it's kind of impossible."

In the 2014 book Joni Mitchell: In Her Own Words, she elaborated on the severity of her symptoms, saying "I couldn't wear clothing. I couldn't leave my house for several years. Sometimes it got so I'd have to crawl across the floor. My legs would cramp up, just like a polio spasm. It hit all of the places where I had polio."

OK so Joni is off her meds. Totally nuts.
But then I ran across a bunch of things about it.
It's very strange indeed.
Here's and ABC news story. The guy studies the fibers and finds that they are not like anything he's seen. Not a typical fiber from the environment.

Here's and article in The Guardian.

Not sure what to make of all this but it is very odd.
Happily I have not been infected by alien fibers as of yet.
May the force be with you and the fibers away from you.
What is the world coming to?
