Cancer will do that to ya.
Other than discussing her weight and dieting, Aretha has never given any details about her health throughout her career, nor has she ever revealed exactly what ails her; however it's been reported that she was diagnosed with pancreatic in 2010. Like many of us, cancer runs in her family. Her brother died of lung cancer, a sister died of breast cancer, and another sister died of throat cancer.
