PostHeaderIcon Ryan O’ Neal speaks of Farrah Fawcett’s grim battle with cancer



Movie star Ryan O’ Neal who himself suffers from chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is distraught over his long-time partner actress Farrah Fawcett's medical condition.. The 68-year old actor says Farrah, 62, who is battling advanced anal cancer is resting in bed at home. With metastatic malignancy entrenched in her body, Farrah’s treatment is almost done.

“Farrah has never, ever talked about how unfair it is," concludes O'Neal. "But I've thought about it. She may have thought to herself that she had been chosen to do this, that some higher power had put her in this situation. Because then there would be something positive to come out of it. And maybe that's true. But I'm just not so sure it's something positive for Farrah."—said -Ryan O’ Neal. People (05/07/09, Clark, C)
