As of Thursday morning this was the news:
http://story.news.yahoo.c...oss_stroke Vandross Remains in Critical Condition Thu May 1, 8:29 AM ET NEW YORK - Luther Vandross (news) remains hospitalized in critical but stable condition at a New York City hospital after suffering a stroke. He has been unconscious since he was stricken, unable to speak or open his eyes. A published report quotes a neurology professor at the Mayo Clinic as saying the lack of progress so far indicates the seriousness of the stroke Vandross suffered. James Meschia tells USA Today that unconsciousness is "an uncommon occurrence in patients with stroke." He notes that in many cases, stroke patients are discharged to home or to a rehabilitation center within a week of being stricken. Vandross suffered his stroke two weeks ago yesterday. Vandross has sold more than 20 million albums in the United States alone, and his hits include the love ballads "Here and Now" and "A House Is Not a Home." His new album, "Dance With My Father," is scheduled for release in June.

I've met the man. He was a real nice guy. "You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." "

Why do we go on death watch it comes to artists/celebrities? No, he's not dead. From what I've heard and read and that has been posted, nothing has change recently. He has been unconscious for days now, and has had a tracheotomy due to pneumonia. He's critical yet stable condition.
I've heard his new single "Dance with my Father" several times on KBLX last week, and it's really touching. Every time it gets played, the dj's have to take phone calls afterwards because the song struck a cord with listeners, most end up crying on the air because it's so personal. "Funkyslsistah… you ain't funky at all, you just a little ol' prude"!
