Hi Ladies,
Tonight on NBC TV they're showing a documentary of Farah Fawcett's journey with her cancer.

I hope I got this right from the reports, but she went to Germany to have a treatment where the chemo was delivered through an artery, to the cancerous organ and directly received the chemo drug.

The person reporting said that our country is also starting to investigate the precise method used in Germany.

She's a brave soul, like all of us, fighting her cancer as hard as possible,as we are. And like many of us, she was diagnosed when her cancer was advanced.

God Bless all people fighing cancer.

Have a pleasant day,
Jane

    Journey
    Jane,

    I did watch her journey last night. She has been brave, just like we all are. My heart goes out to her.

    Seems like there are lots of possibilities for treatment when it comes to cancer.

    Sad about her son. Another person to add to our prayer list.

    Farrah's Cancer
    Farrah has anal cancer, which is almost never survivable. She was treated with radiation after surgery in the states, and then went to Germany for more treatment when she was told the tissue surrounding the area that had been radiated could not be operated on (recurrence had started).

    NBC
    I suggest going to NBC's website to see if you can play it from there. I'm sure it would require high speed access.

    You can go on NBC.com and watch the whole documentary on your computer. It's worth it!
