What exactly happened to Christine Cavanaugh? She retired suddenly in 2001 at the height of her career, and it was never explained why. She died in 2014 but the cause was never explained, though all rumors point towards Leukemia...but at the same time, no one lives with that for thirteen years, then just dies.
Apparently the police investigated and did an autopsy, too, and you rarely see that for a disease/natural causes type death.
It could have been suicide.

because she hated you, OP
some people are just private
maybe she realized late in life that she didn't like the even the meager amount of attention being a voice actress brought

probably some slower type of cancer. got a hint of it, said 'fuckit i'm enjoying whatever life i have left. no more working for me' and devoted all of her time to her family

Nah, that was only May Kay Bergman

That happens all the time actually. Like that happened to one of my schoolteachers.

Its called going into remission. You can poison cancer and then it goes into hiding like a ninja and surfaces years later. Then you start over again, sometimes multiple times. There are a certain number of years that have to go by before its called cured, I think at least 7.

Yeah, a kid I was at school with lived with it for about five years. Died when we were 13. Great kid, too. I wish I'd known her better.

There's no guarantee of it ever being cured, even if it's gone for 7 years or more. Particular cancers have particular pathologies; what that means is, they behave in predictable ways (within reason) and statistical outliers are rare (or mean you were diagnosed with something similar to but not quite what you actually have, which is easily done but again, quite rare).
If after x years your cancer hasn't come back and you have a particular cancer that almost never comes back at x+1 years, you're "cured" in the sense that it's very very unlikely you'll get it again. But you can get it again; there's nothing stopping you getting it again, it's just that in observed cases beyond your own, those who survive x years almost never have a resurgence after that point. Even if some of them have, and even if you do, it still doesn't change the fact that at that x years point, the cancer is probably over and done with for most people.
Some people are unlucky and end up with totally different kinds of cancer almost one after another, or at different times in their lives.

She retired over a pay dispute and decided it was more worth her time to raise her children.
Was it tied into a greater health scare? Probably. But she didn't want the public to know anything more than that.
>>78384954
it's a shame. I had hoped she would return to the industry.

>She died in 2014
I...I didn't know...

The definition of "cured" is 5 years without some kind of reappearing, this definition is only for some kinds of cancer, like those that are known for not being that aggressive metastasing types. Example for a cancer that never viewed as "cured" is breast cancer.
