Paul Newman Prepares to Die at Home
Paul Newman has finished chemotherapy and has told his family he wants to die at home.
It was reported Friday that Newman, 83, had only weeks to live and had returned home to his wife, Joanne Woodward.
The Oscar-winning actor was pictured being pushed from a New York cancer hospital in a wheelchair.
"Paul didn't want to die in the hospital," a source said. "Joanne and his daughters are beside themselves with grief."
The source, described as a close family friend, said that the star had spent the past few weeks getting his affairs in order.
It was claimed that some of Newman's actions had caused tension among of his children.
"He gave a prized car — a Ferrari with his racing number, 82, on it — to a long-time pal," the friend said. "The sudden move angered his children. It's especially hard for them to come to grips with what's going on.
Newman married Woodward in 1958 and the couple have three daughters. He also has two daughters from his first marriage to Jackie Witte.
It was reported last month that he had been readying their oldest child, Nell, to take over his Newman's Own salad dressings company, the profits of which are given to a charitable foundation.

Very upsetting. I didn't realize he's been married to Joanne Woodward for 50 years.

That is so sad. I know someone who works at the hospital that he was at and they said he was not doing well. The cancer must have been very rapid He seemed like such a nice man
Holy HIPAA violation. Its medical professionals that talk shop with their friends that have made it a PITA for everyone.
I do agree that its sad I always liked Paul Newman.

its a violation to even say he was their patient. HIPAA regulations were passed after Elizabeth Taylor got pizzed off that nurses leaked her medical condition to people outside the facility.
Now all of us have to fill out a million extra forms as patients and as healthcare professionals we have to adhere to super strict rules that are a PITA & not always beneficial to the patient. If I didn't have to deal with HIPAA nonsense everyday I probably wouldn't have even noticed what you wrote.
