My generation probably remembers her, like I do, from the Skippy peanut butter commercials.

I am perhaps dating myself if I say that my generation probably remembers her as the only Mouseketeer with boobs. At ten I had a serious crush on Annette and I know I wasn't the only one.

My crush was on Cheryl, but I liked Annette, too. In a way I'm glad she doesn't have to endure the MS anymore.

I'm with Bob: Annette suffering from MS is too horrible to contemplate.

I enjoyed BACK TO THE BEACH, it was a fun flick. Also had Pee-Wee Herman singing SURFIN' BIRD.

Apparently she was experiencing symptoms when she did BACK TO THE BEACH in 1987 though she didn't go public until 1992. That's a long time to suffer.
