Farrah Fawcett cancer battle plea
Rachael | May 14, 2009
Farrah Fawcett is ‘praying for a miracle’ in her battle with cancer.
The ‘Charlie’s Angels’ actress has undergone an unsuccessful spout of radiation and chemotherapy treatments in a bid to beat anal cancer, but she insists she has not given up a fight.
She said, “Cancer is a disease that is mysterious, headstrong and makes its own rules. And mine, to this date, is incurable.
“I know that everyone will die eventually, but I do not want to die of this disease. I want to stay alive. So I say to God-because it is, after all, in his hands-’It is seriously time for a miracle’”
In a documentary of her battle with cancer, the actress tells of how she never expected in her lifetime to be stricken by the disease, and says the diagnosis instantly changed her priorities.
She said, “All of the things I have ever hoped for in my life, finding a doctor to surgically remove my anal cancer did not even make the top one million on my list.
“But now it is number one, number one as in primary cancer, meaning was the first in and for that reason, it needed to be the first out. Because this peanut-sized tumour that has sent its army of mutant cells to my liver. And it would continue to send reinforcements into any organ into my body unless someone did something to stop it.”
‘Farrah’s Story’ is due to be aired on US TV network station, NBC this Friday, (15.05.09)
A spokesperson for the actress recently denied claims that had been made by her long term partner, Ryan O’Neal that treatment for her illness had ‘pretty much ended.’
The representative said, “She never stopped getting treatment. She is in a stable condition.”
Farrah was initially diagnosed with cancer in 2006. Doctors believed the cancer was treatable, however the battle with the now incurable illness began in May 2007.

The evil deception by the medical community is that their
gc wall | May 14, 2009The evil deception by the medical community is that their treatments work sometimes. The fact is that they have not discovered the correct approach to treating cancer and everything that they do is a stall. They are so wrapped up in their sophisticated methodology that they can’t see their way clear to adopting other methods of dealing with cancer. When a patient goes into remission it is not because of anything the doctors did; It is because a miracle, random luck, or they caught it early enough to prevent recurrence. I know that it is not right to take away hope, but when hope is only a fantasy and miracles are what one is really counting on patients have the right to know that they are in a fight for their lives. All of the education, intellectual effort, scientific panels, and research that is ongoing has them all trying to kill the cancer, but they are killing the patient as well. Chemotherapy is not a poison in the way most people think of poisons, it stops cell division, all cell division not just the caner’s. That is whay is so damaging to the patients. The question today is does one let a patient die of cancer sooner, but has some quality of life before death, or does one put him or herself through tortuous treatments that leave the patient unable to enjoy life for a longer time.
There are no cures, there is only death. Medical experts need to look at other methods of controlling cancer, Can cancer cells be deceived rather than killed, can healthy cells be disguised from cancer’s search for fresh blood. Take a verb any verb other than killed and see if it works. Can cancer be slowed, reversed, deceived, misled, sabotaged, drained, fooled, etc. The entire medical community is concentrated on the verb kill, but there are thousands of other verbs in the dictionary and one of them might be the key, because whatever it is they are doing is not a cure, treatment or anything else; it is cruel and unusual punishment for the patient and the patient’s loved ones and it must end.

Sorry to disagree with you gc wall, but cancer can
Jacque | May 16, 2009Sorry to disagree with you gc wall, but cancer can be cured and often is. I am living proof. I had adenoma carcinoma of my left lung. I went through surgery, radiation, two rounds of chemotherapy, you name it. By God’s grace and medical science I am cured. It’s been 5 years now. My Dad wasn’t so lucky, his rectal cancer wasn’t caught in time to treat. I believe the doctors and medical science does what they can, the Lord helps us with the rest. I pray Farrah gets her miracle. God bless her and her family

Okay I watched the show last night also and while
nevergiveup | May 16, 2009Okay I watched the show last night also and while I truely understand the hell that her and her family are going through and the fact that she was telling her story there were a few things that bothered me. Never once did she mentioned the fact that she has led a long unbelieveable life that most people can only dream of. Never did she mention the fact that she is so incredibly lucky that she can fly all over the world and seek different treatments that most people can not. Yes this is a cancer story but it is not the normal real life cancer story. Real story are the children that do not even remember living outside of the hospital. Parents of a 12 year old girl being told that their daughter has a brain tumor and have to watch as they pump experimental chemotherapy drugs through her veins in hopes it might work. Parents who have to live apart for months so their sick child can receive treatment while the other parent has to work to pay the bills, keep insurance, and so the other children can go to school. Real life cancer is a young mother with a 2 and 4 year old dealing with it 2 years later taking care of her own children with a chemotherapy backpack on her back pumping drugs in her, all the while being in her out of the hospital while her youngest child does not even remember her being well. The 40 something father who leaves small children behind that may not remember him. And sitting with your 18 year old daughter 3 weeks before she leaves for college and being told she has cancer and while you as the parent cry as your daugher watches and after the hell always wondering will this come back. A high school student going to school bald. An 60 year old women with breast cancer telling you that she has lead a long wonderful life and I am ready for whatever GOD has in store for me. And the stories of the other patients wonderfully brave patients that you meet along these journeys. Please always be grateful for the time you have had and realize the fact that there is always someone story that is worse than yours. That is not to diminish the pain and suffering that any of us is going through however there is always sometimes worse.
Farah----DON't GIVE UP! When my daughter was around 3
karen | May 16, 2009Farah—-DON’t GIVE UP! When my daughter was around 3 years old she was afraid of dying because her great grandfather had just died. All she talked about for weeks was how she was going to die. I knew from the word of God that he does not give us the spirit of fear so she and that the adversary comes to steal and to kill and to destory but Christ came that we might have life more abundant. I called afriend over who also believed in the power of prayer so we prayed together for my daughter. My daughter was not in the room when we prayed for her but when we finished praying she came running into the room saying mommy mommy something said I did not call my children to die. After that she never talked about dying again. Another time after giving birth to my son by C-section My doctor sent me home with a fever. He went on vacation and my fever got wose so I called the doctors office and was told to come in the next day to see another doctor who was filling in for my doctor. But I felt so bad that I called up a reverand I knew and asked him to pray for me. He told me to read the bible because the word of God is healing. While I complained to myself because he didn”t pray for me whil we were on the phone. But I obeyed and read the word of God until I fell asleep and when I woke up the next morning I felt better but I had a big bubble where the incision had ben made for my c-section. My first thought was to cut it so I did. When I did this green fluid pored out enough to fill to towels. It smelt so bad I thought I would throw up. When I went into the doctors that day the doctor got all excited and bought in a nurse to show her my incision and to tell her how it was a miracle. He said the poison should of passed through my body last night and killed me. I could go on but what I want to say is as long as you are breathing it is never to late to believe God will and can heal you. Keep people that will believe with you close to you. NOT people who are feeling sorry for you and are sorrowing like your already dead. When people in the old testament didn’t believe Jesus Christ sent them out of the room and prayed for the ill person. God bless you! If I can help you in any way let me know.

Diane | May 16, 2009My heart goes out to Farrah, Ryan ,her son and friends, But i can not under stand why she did not have the surgery to remove it all. I relaize she did not want to wear the coloscamy bag, but it could save her life, it would have saved her all the pain and suffering over these fast years. Am I wrong? if so please tell me..Daine

Sylvia | May 17, 2009This is a reply to Nevergiveup’s previous comment…
I have watched Farrah’s documentary last night and since, i cannot shake that poor angel out of my mind….How is it possible that someone would have the incedency to pass a comment like the one i have just read….Have you watched her carefully as she tries to hold on to the tiniest little shreds of life she can possible grab? Have you watched her suffer while they puncture her body, try and even find veins to “plug her in” while she watches herself slowly die in agony and fear?? Have you heard the way she speaks? The softness, the kindness in her lovely voice?? How dare you pass comment on the fact that she is “lucky” to have the money to get treated anywhere she wants….she is still on her deathbed isn’t she??? Pain and suffering from such a horrible disease will get the ones with money as much and as intensely as anyone else, and i refuse to just read this and not be insurged of such boldness towards someone who has been battling for her life for the past three years….how horrible to say such a thing! What, now cancer is sweeter on someone with money???? Realy…
I am furious and hope to God that instead of passing such judgement on someone, you would find it in your heart to say a few prayers, especially so it doesn’t happen to you or someone you love…then you tell me about money!!! Lord have mercy…
God bless Farrah!
I know of two cures for cancer. One is a
Brenda | May 17, 2009I know of two cures for cancer. One is a natural remedy that has documented proof. The other is through what the Bible says “If anyone is sick, call for the elders to pray and the prayer of faith will heal the sick.” A church out of Redding, CA Bethel has taken that text literally and God has been manifesting His kindness through them. I have access to both of these cures.
My mother watched Farah’s documentary and was overwhelmed by it. She said if she knew of a way to help she would. I told her about what I had access to and she asked me to share the news immediately. We should always mind our mothers…even if we are in our 50′s!!! And so I have done so.
My prayers are with you Farah!

I flipped on the show half way through and "Germany"
Kay | May 17, 2009I flipped on the show half way through and “Germany” caught my attention because I heard recently of a procedure in Germany where they raise the teperature of the body (perhaps on the same principal as malaria) while the person sleeps in a machine and it kills all cancer cells. I just wondered if she tried this during one of her trips and I missed it. An easily curable form of malaria is also being tested by Heimlich (of the Heimlich maneuver). You can’t patent malaria so the mainstream will probably never embrace the studies.
I saw Farrah story and I am so sad,
JoJo | May 17, 2009I saw Farrah story and I am so sad, by the way to the person who said she (Farrah never said how lucky she has been and what a fabulous life she has led, guess u weren’t paying attention cause she DID say those things. How dare you judge her, she is and has been going through hell you idiot, money & fame mean squat when you are as sick as she is, again you idiot, you are a jealous & very sad person.
Anyway Farrah most of us out here are praying 4 u 100%, we hope you beat the odds & the suffering stops, we pray U get well soon! I have lost numerous ppl to this retched disease and it breaks my heart to see you suffer. God Bless you Farrah, we love you…God Speed sweetie* Have Ryan, Redmaond and her Dad & family & freinds in my thoughts & prayers also~

Jr Williams | May 18, 2009I grew up watching Farrah on Charlies Angels. I always admired her and still do. I think that Farrah is an awesome actress and she does not deserve to go through the battle of Cancer. I pray every night that the Lord will touch Farrah and restore her health and heal the Cancer. Farrah you mean the world to me and I will never forget you. I will always Pray that God will heal you from head to toe. And I ask this in Jesus name.
my best friend went through 18 months of chemo, meds,
pymcat | May 18, 2009my best friend went through 18 months of chemo, meds, and mumerous hosp stays related to the effects of the chemo and drugs not of the lung cancer. she died..the last 18 months a hell for her. i was not with her during that time only periodically would i see her.
i found myself cry watching farrah’s battles and wanting so much to call my friend thelma and ask “is that how much hell you went through?” but i realized i couldnt call.
cism isi don’t see what the critiicism is about. even seeing my frind on some rough days and having been a registered nurse this was a glimpse into a world hopefully none of us will see.
my question is that at beginning she was offered a collostomy and they would have removed the cancer and anus and colon but she refused . i wonder if the outcome would have prevented her from dying .
Very sad story and it's repeated nearly a half million
TakeOurCountryBack | May 18, 2009Very sad story and it’s repeated nearly a half million times a year!
The saddest thing about this is that it is all so unnecessary!
The American protocols for treating cancer are Surgery, Chemo and Radiation or as they are called in the holistic world……. Slash, Poison and Burn.
It is a sad reminder about how limited our choices are compared to the rest of the world. The crooked FDA in Collusion with Big Pharma has made it virtually illegal to practice any form of alternative treatment in the U.S. They rule with an iron fist and drive the so called competition out of business with lawsuits and other forms of harassment.
The war on cancer has been a miserable failure and mostly because greedy for profit corporations are not going to allow their cash cow to be taken away from them.
We are being systematically poisoned by these corporations making everything from the food and beverages we consume to all the products we put on our bodies and all the other products we clean our homes with. Time and time again chemicals that have been found to cause cancer find their way into the products we consume on a daily basis. This is all done with the full knowledge and consent of the totally corrupt FDA, Who act as just a rubber stamp for these criminals. The FDA is a who’s who of former big pharma and food industry big wigs. Is it any wonder that no advances have been made in the 30+ years since Nixon declared war on cancer?
Don’t waste your hard earned money donating to the American Cancer society because they haven’t shown any interest in actually curing cancer and haven’t made any advances worth talking about since their inception.
The good news is……. Information is out there! you must educate yourselves and learn how to detoxify yourselves and get as many of the poisons out of your life as you can. There are alternative treatments available and many of them are as simple as diet and lifestyle change. others require more intense detoxification and vitamin and mineral supplements designed to bring your immune system back to a level that it can take out the cancer naturally.
Get educated! there are many alternatives to the American Cancer protocols, but they being suppressed and require research to be found.
Unfortunately for Farrah, Her cancer is so far advanced now that I fear nothing can save her.
God Bless her and her family.
