TV legend, 83, battles agonizing BONE DEFORMITY.

Crippled Carol's Medical Crisis!

BRAVE Carol Burnett is saying a final farewell to fans as she battles an agonizing bone condition that’s left her crippled and struggling to walk on a deformed foot!

Now in the middle of a nationwide tour that ends next year, the plucky 83-year-old TV legend is facing the last days of her storied career while coping with extremely painful hallux valgus, which warped her foot and forces her to swap shoes for slippers.

Pain spreads to new areas

The deformity, treatable with surgery,can cause nerve damage and disability and spread pain to the hip, knee and lower back, medical experts say. She’s consulted doctors about the condition.

“Carol is beside herself,” says a source.“She’s always been a very active person and this is tragically debilitating. But she’s trying to mask her pain to say a last goodbye to her devoted fans.”
