Showbiz legend CHER’s the world’s happiest mom now that transgender son CHAZ BONO, who once weighed a scale-busting 345 pounds and faced near-certain death by heart attack, miraculously turned his life around and dropped a whopping 60 pounds – a miracle that cost Cher a whopping $60,000!
A year ago, The ENQUIRER reported that the superstar was “worried sick about Chaz’s weight gain...he was huffing and puffing on the phone during conversations with her, and she flew into a full-fledged panic attack, terrified she’d eventually get the phone call every mother dreads – that her child is dead!”
Suddenly fearing for his mom’s health – and his own, because even walking had become painful for him – Chaz told Cher he’d totally commit to shedding blubber and getting healthy, said a family insider.
