(Cypher had birthed the couple's 2 children via artificial insemination; CSN&Y's David Crosby was the father.) 2002 adage the outlet of Etheridge's autobiography, The Truth Is: My Life in Love and Music, and 2004's Lucky was her jubilation of a new love story. Later that same yr Etheridge revealed that she'd been diagnosed with chest cancer.
