Marcia Cross has communicated that she went through anal cancer treatment in Nov. 2017. We are all brave fighters in this battle. It's nice that she is drawing attention to our type of cancer and overcoming the shame some associate it with.

    Wow she is coming out to the whole world with that. She’s braver than me, she’s right about the shame and stigma, I’ve gotten better but there are still plenty of times I just say “colon cancer“ to avoid all that. I feel like she is making a personal sacrifice to help raise awareness and decrease stigma. We are all lucky she did that. Like Farrah

    Thank you for posting this link.  I am going to buy the magazine so I can read the entire article.  How brave of her to make this public!

    I've never heard of her until now.  No...lol, I don't live under a rock, I just seldom watch "reality" tv shows unless they are nature or science oriented.  I'm glad she gave this interview to bring awareness to this type of cancer.  Even now, people have forgotten about Farrah and her struggle with this disease.
