And every young girl (me included) wanted to look like like her. Reminds me that I’m getting old. I will say a prayer for her and the loved ones she will leave behind.

On October 4, 2006, it was revealed that Fawcett was suffering from anal cancer, and was undergoing treatment, including chemotherapy and surgery.

Thus, a possible Charlie’s Angels reunion was put on hold.

The Associated Press wire service reported on her 60th birthday that Fawcett was now cancer free.
Fawcett said in a statement, “This is an extraordinarily happy day for me and my family.
I hope that my news might offer some level of inspiration to others who unfortunately must continue to fight the disease.”

On Wednesday, May 16, 2007, it was reported that a malignant polyp was found in the area where Fawcett had been treated for the initial cancer. Doctors contemplated whether to implant a radiation seeder which differs from conventional radiation and is used to treat other types of cancer.

Fawcett, however, chose to travel to Germany with O’Neal for embryonic stem cell cancer treatment not available in the U.S.
This treatment in Germany has been filmed for a possible reality television show.

On Sunday April 5th, 2009 it was reported that Farrah was rushed to a hospital where she was in critical condition.

No. Sadly, I believe that she is going to die very soon.
