Legendary bluesman B.B. King is now in hospice care. A message from the guitarist on his website expressed his thanks for well-wishes and prayers on Friday. King, who suffers from Type-II Diabetes, has had a host of health problems lately. Media reports have surfaced that say King’s daughter, Patty King, has some complaints and concerns over his current care including a recent hospital trip on Thursday where her Rock and Roll Hall of Famer dad was dehydrated and was not eating. Read that report HERE. The prolific entertainer is 89 years old.

Check out the trailer for the film based on King’s life, “The Life of Riley”:
