Farrah Fawcett battling deadly cancer

It's in the Enquirer -


TV legend Farrah Fawcett is battling cancer, The ENQUIRER has learned exclusively.

Doctors discovered a malignant tumor in her lower intestine and blasted it with radiation to shrink it, sources say.

After surgery to remove the deadly cancer, the 59-year-old former "Charlie's Angels" star faces chemotherapy and more grueling radiation treatments.

The devastating news came after Farrah's triumphant appearance August 27 at the Emmy Awards, when she unveiled a stunning new look during a reunion with "Angels" co-stars Jaclyn Smith and Kate Jackson.

But it's brought her back together with longtime love Ryan O'Neal, who's survived his own battle with leukemia.

"After Farrah got the diagnosis — cancer of the anus and lower intestine — she was devastated. Everyone in the family cried for days," a longtime family friend told The ENQUIRER.

"Then she snapped out of it and told Ryan, 'I'm going to beat this!'"

More details on this exclusive story are in this week's National Enquirer.

First, I don't believe the Enquirer.

Second...it's not "cancer of the anus"...it's colon cancer.

How credible. Chat Icon

omg...thats terrible...

what they mean by "CANCER OF THE ANUS" is Rectal and Colon cancer. There is such a thing as anal (rectal)cancer and it can be isolated and /or in conjunction with colon or other cancers as well.
