Michael Jackson -- Alpha Male?

Michael may be in desperate need of a lung transplant, according to Ian Halperin, author of a new M.J. bio.

Halperin claims Jacko suffers from a rare genetic disorder known as Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, which has led to emphysema and gastrointestinal bleeding.

Halperin told In Touch Michael can barely speak and is nearly blind in his left eye.

We called MJ's reps -- nothing.

47. Guess what? You have no idea what all your friends and family have done or doing right now behind closed doors so be careful what you wish for. All we can hope for when we die is that we lived our lives the best we could and loved one another (Which we already know many of use have failed at that, just read these post) but some of use are going to be standing in the same line with Michael...but the point is we don't know what line that may be? Once again be careful with what you say or wish for.

You all are some sick bastards....doesn't matter what you think about his personal life but it does matter what you think about love for you fellow man, its wrong to wish death on any one!

49. Its time for a TELL ALL AUTOBIOGRAPHY. The profits could be used to fund a MICHAEL JACKSON FOUNDATION to help fund health care services and homeless shelters for America's youth. Certainly Neverland Ranch doesn't qualify as a gift to America's youth ... but rather Michael's Fantsyland Come True. It's never too late Michael.

50. Karma is right. All of you wishing terrible things on a person you don't know will come back to each of you. Hopefully you will not have to endure a painful disease as Michael is. No one knows what went on in his home except the people there, and you have no right to judge. There is only one final judgement and none of us make the final say.

53. I wish him well. This definetly doesn't sound good; I am concerned about his children. I strongly believe Michael was not treated fairly by the press. If someone molested my children, as a mother I will kill them even if I have to escape to Mexico afterwards, but the last thing in my mind would be to ask for money. That is a very shameful thing to try to gain $$$ to accomplish the American Dream in the back of others. Elizabeth Taylor was present when the famous sleep over and she said no touching happened. I don't think no one will put their hands in the fire for a criminal. Besides all the Psychologists that evaluated Michael said that he did NOT fit the profile of a pedophile. I don't think no doctor is going to risk their M.D. license for protecting a criminal and throw all the years of school away in the garbage plus jail. The first sex scandal went around the world; if the mother of the child from the second scandal did not watch the news; I honestly do NOT know in which planet she was living. Would you let your children sleep over or even interact with someone that has been acused for molesting children in the past??? I think it was the mother's plan to earn $$$$. I am glad that the jury came up with the right decision!

55. Thank you to all of you sick people out there. I am a normal person unlike the rest of you except that I suffer from this rare genetic disease as well. It is the only thing that Jacko and I have in common. I raised my kids as a single parent struggling thru the every day stuff and raised great kids who are now wonderful parents. I raised them alone as a result of a marraige that failed der to my ex's abuse. I am not a pedophile or anything else. The is a terrible lung disease that not only destroys your health but your entire life. It has robbed me of being able to watch my grandchildren - all 5 of them - participate in sports activity and has me using a mobility scooter to get around. For all of you morons who think people who have this horrible rare long disease deserve it and that it is Karma, you have not a single clue. It is totally unrelated to cancer or AIDS. It is the result of being born with the inability of your body's ability to produce the proper amount of Alpha -1. To those of you who have no concept of this, not only consider yourself very lucky but educate yourself in this type of genetic problems. It could happen to you or your child.

I am not defending Jacko for his lifestyle because I am totally opposed to things he has done in his life time. I am however, defending those of us who suffer fron this. It is horrible to live like this and none of use deserve it. By saying someone who suffers fron it deserves it is the same as saying everyone who has been born with a serious health issue of any kind like MS or Cystic fribosis, congenitial heart defects, etc., did something to deserve it.

58. The funny thing about this disease is that it is an inherited disorder that affects white people, primarily Scandinavian. Before his metamorphosis, Michael Jackson was not white-he was black. This disease is rarely found in black and asian people. You can learn about it yourself by doing a google search and reading. It is a terrible disease and anyone suffering from it is truly suffering.
