00:00 Mary Lou Retton is in the ICU right now.
00:01 I mean, what was your--
00:02 -I've been talking to her today.
00:03 -You have.
00:03 -I've been talking to her today.
00:05 -How's she doing?
00:05 -She's fighting.
00:07 She kind of wants to give up.
00:09 I'm sending her videos of her dancing, and I'm telling her
00:12 there's only one Mary Lou Retton.
00:14 You've got this.
00:16 It's crazy, because last week she was in LA two weeks ago,
00:20 and she wanted to meet up.
00:21 And I had rehearsals, and I couldn't--
00:23 she was like, let me take you out for dinner.
00:25 I couldn't go because I was in the ICU.
00:28 I couldn't go because I had rehearsals.
00:31 But it's just me.
00:31 You've got to see the people.
00:33 You've got to say hi.
00:34 You've got to call them.
00:35 And I've been speaking to her today.
00:36 And her daughter's created a beautiful GoFundMe, so please
00:40 go help on that.
00:42 And she's a fighter, and she's going to be great.
00:45 -When did you learn that she was sick?
00:47 -Today.
00:48 I spoke to her.
00:50 -Everyone who was there that season has said she's a fighter
00:53 and that she's one of the strongest women ever.
00:55 -I know her very well.
00:56 And she's like family to me.
00:58 And she's a fighter.
01:00 And today I've been talking a lot, sending positive
01:02 feedback, trying to--
01:05 she was telling me, I have no power.
01:08 I have nothing more.
01:10 But she's strong.
01:11 She's strong.
