This morning I went to the funeral of
a friend's father, well-known in Hawaii.
There was a 52 year old "paperboy" named
Daniel among those attending. (he sells
newspapers in one of our finest Honolulu
neighborhoods)
Small, scrawny and sweet as a button, but you
could tell he also has slight mental impairment.
Well, what bothered us was that he had to take
a bus to get to the funeral, which was on the
other side of the island near the sea, and because
of that he did not get to the service until near the
end, but just before the lunch.
Bothered us because he is none other than the
only brother of Bette Midler (yes the Divine M);
I mean, there she is with her millions and
her brother had to take a bus and be late????
Apparently he lives with his other sister Susan
in that neigborhood, but still...hmmmmm....it just
did not seem right to us.
What would you have thought??
HUGS,

Just goes to show you, the "devine" Ms M isn't so devine is she. I have thought that ever since she stole Martha Rays script. Ms M may have won in court but anyone who followed Martha Rays life knows that script desribed her life. Since then you couldn't pay me to spend money on anything having to do with her. Just wish millions of others felt the same.
Because you mention her brother possibly having a slight mental impairment, maybe the bus is a form of independence for him. By the way, who of you took him home?

but when we looked for him after lunch we couldn't
find him.
To look at him was so touching, and we felt so
bad.

perhaps his pride is in the way of being helped and maybe he would not accept any of
his sisters fame and wealth to get along.
I know it is easy to assume that he was ignored by his sister, but I have found often people will not accept help.
Now this is how I would like to think of it was, would hate to think that our Ms. Midler
was like that to her family!
Anyhow that is my take on it!

Susan to go into the field of mental health for
decades. They recently moved back to Hawaii, after
living in NYC closer to Bette.
