Summary
Muni Long bravely shares her harrowing journey after a double lung transplant, forced by a sudden health crisis that sidelined her The Boy Is Mine Tour. Diagnosed with lupus in 2014, she battled worsening symptoms—including pneumonia and constant coughing—until doctors gave her just one week to live. With her son by her side, she chose surgery over hospice, and now, nearly asymptomatic, she’s on the road to recovery, with vocal surgery and a 6-12 month rehab ahead before returning to the stage. Her latest single, “The Riches,” was recorded before all this—proof she’s still singing, even as she rebuilds. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
