I remember walking through dorms at college in the 70s and Farah's famous poster was in almost every room. You may also remember her from Charlie's Angels. Maybe this will bring back memories and update her life story.

The most important piece of data in the story ..

"She has been flying to and from Frankfurt for 18 months, where she is said to be having experimental stem cell therapy, unavailable in the U.S."

Farrah darlin' .. your expose of this treatment, good or bad, is probably the biggest bomb the zero administration could ever receive.

We're praying for your recovery.

I distinctly remember that the initial reports about her illness referred to as breast cancer, not intestinal.

Very sad. I can’t believe she is 62. She caused a scandal in our family home. My om was upset cause my little bro had her picture on his door. I can remember it like it was yesterday.

My now 42 year old daughter had “Farrah Fawcett hair.”

She was an absolute beauty back then . . . so beautiful that the feminazis got all over her about being so feminine. So, unfortunately, she paid her dues to those creeps by being in films where she was getting set fire to, beaten up, raped, etc. and began to look like a punching bag.

Where Hollywood should have celebrated her beauty by starring her in costume dramas so her beauty could be enjoyed, she lowered herself to self-effacing victim-of-violence movies.

I, however, will remember her as one of the true beauties.

Pictures of Farrah Fawcett in a wheelchair have caused a recent tabloid feeding frenzy.

And in a new interview, Farrah took aim at the photographers following her every move as she continues her battle against cancer.

“I just didn’t want to be photographed in a wheelchair, which is what they’re always trying to get,” Farrah said. “That just pisses me off, okay? It makes me mad.”

Outraged over becoming paparazzi prey, Farrah – who was first diagnosed with anal cancer in 2006 — has been fighting back against the often-invasive tactics, which she believes are detrimental to her already fragile health.

“Stress is what feeds your cancer. Stress is what gives you cancer and then there’s the paparazzi giving you stress,” she added.

Two nights ago, Farrah, 62, turned the cameras on the overzealous photographers, filming them as they tried to get a shot of her at Los Angeles International Airport.

“Something has to be done. I think they have to be scared, which is what I said to them,” Farrah continued. “It’s like, come on — take your best shot.”

Producer: Farrah Fawcett Not Seeking ‘Desperate’ Medical Treatment In Germany

LOS ANGELES, Calif. —
Contrary to a report by a British tabloid, Farrah Fawcett did not say her final goodbyes to her loved ones before she headed to Germany for a last ditch medical treatment for her cancer.

While Fawcett is indeed in Germany, it was to shoot portions of her upcoming documentary.

The 62-year-old actress is currently in Germany because she’s filming her documentary and she is there to interview her doctors, Farrah’s documentary producer, Craig Nevius, told Access Hollywood.

According to the UK’s Sunday Mirror, the former “Charlie’s Angels” actress had flown to Germany for an “aggressive experimental treatment in a desperate attempt to live.”

The Mirror also claimed Fawcett dismissed all of her staff before heading abroad.

However, Nevius said although she will be tested by her doctors while she’s there, the story about her preparing to die is not true. He also noted the actress will be headed back to the U.S. soon.

A good lesson: Even those people that we worship as gods and goddesses end up sick, old, decrepit, dead. It is the way of all flesh.

“But the ‘terrorist’ inside her body, as she calls it...”

No, Farrah, you can’t call your cancer a terrorist - it is now to be called a man-made disaster.

she’s back in the hospital today and it doesn’t look like she’s going to make it.
