Tisha Campbell Has Sarcoidosis But Isn't Dying

“Thank you, everyone, for your concern,” says Tisha Campbell Martin in reference to swirling rumors about her dying from the same disease that contributed to the death of comedian/actor Bernie Mac. The House Party actress says “I was diagnosed with a lung disorder that some people walk around with and don’t even know they have.” Tisha admits to having the disease for 10 years but reassures us “No worry is needed.”

Tisha stays healthy “Through early diagnosis I’m happy to share that I stay healthy with diet and exercise.” According to People.com Tisha’s next role is a Lifetime police drama Exit 19, which will debut later this year.
