Robyn M Israeli singer Ofra Haza in intensive care February 17, 2000 Web posted at: 12:24 p.m. EST (1724 GMT) From news and wire reports TEL AVIV, Israel -- Ofra Haza, the Israeli singer whose Yemeni melodies have made her known throughout the world, is in serious condition at a Tel Aviv hospital. She is said to have developed pneumonia as a complication of untreated influenza, according to a report in the Jerusalem Post. In years past, Haza made it on to British pop charts and was No. 1 in Germany for weeks. She recorded songs for Steven Spielberg's 1998 movie "Prince of Egypt." "She is sedated in order to undergo medical treatment, attached to a respirator, and her treatment includes drugs given intravenously and dialysis," Dr. Zev Rothstein, deputy director of Sheba Hospital at Tel Hashomer, told the Jerusalem Post. "If there is significant change in her condition, the hospital and family will issue a new announcement to the press." Haza arrived at the hospital earlier this week with a high fever. "The general condition of Ofra continues to be serious," a hospital spokeswoman told Reuters. "Ofra is still in danger." Haza's family, the Post reported, decided to release information about her condition after rumors that she was on her deathbed spread. Newspapers offered up headlines saying that "Ofra Haza is fighting for her life," and "Ofra Haza's condition remains a mystery." Since she's been in the hospital, some fans have posted Internet sites dedicated in her honor, and others have camped outside the intensive care unit to pray. "I can't accept the fact that she will pass away," one man told Reuters. "It can't be. I can't accept it." Haza, who is in her early 40s, was born in Israel to immigrants from Yemen, who lived in a poor part of Tel Aviv. She was the youngest of nine children. She had told a television interviewer she grew up in a home that was filled with song -- her mother having been a well-known singer in Yemen. Haza's career took off 17 years ago when she won second place in the Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Ani od Hai" ("I'm still alive"). Her 1993 album "Kirya" was nominated for a Grammy. @ Robyn Moore @ http://www.alveus.com/kbrm/robyn.html @ You knew the job was dangerous when you took it. - S.C. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 19 Feb 2000 10:25:03 -0500 From: "Melissa R.

I started listening to Ofra Haza when I lived in Russia - I saw the cover for "Fifty Gates of Wisdom" in a Shanachie catalogue, and I was so intrigued, I had to have it. That cd became one of my favorites to play on Friday nights, when my Armenian friends would come over and dance to it. I was really tickled when I later found out about her collaboration with Thomas. I sincerely hope her health improves quickly. My mother is fighting for her life right now, too, so to hear this right now makes me even more sad. - - Melissa - -- Melissa R.

Ha,ha,ha...I am full of surprises, you should know that by now JAMs! The picture you saw once was taken in circa 1997. It was a professional photo band session. The one on the Gallery was taken with a desktop QuickCAM. Just as a note... I am morph a lot in my pictures. That's why I hate taking them. It seems I change "looks" according to what camera takes it. >Or is the hairline just receeding at a rapid pace in your youth? Your comment reminds me of Sebastian in Blade Runner... genetic anomaly of aging quickly. It has always been a receding hairline even back then I think what you are noticing it more because my grey/white hair are blossoming by the bunch and its displaying more of my thining hairline. I can, I suppose, blame it on my stressful job. >I say >this because, only a couple of years ago I looked at your web page and >you had a picture of a young man up there, like in your early 20s.
