Farah Fawcett, who has been battling cancer for three years, is reportedly unconscious in a critical condition at a Los Angeles hospital.

The 62-year-old’s loved ones, including Ryan O’Neal, have reportedly been gathered to her bedside.

Fawcett, who shot to fame as one of “Charlie’s Angels” in the 1970s, was diagnosed with anal cancer in September 2006. Just four months later she declared herself cured, only for the disease to return in mid-2007.

She had been in Germany undergoing experimental stem-cell treatments.

<span style="font-weight: bold">Farrah Fawcett Documentary To Air On NBC</span>

Farrah Fawcett’s upcoming documentary, “A Wing and A Prayer,” is slated to run on NBC, Access Hollywood has learned.


A specific airdate for Fawcett’s documentary, which chronicles her battle with cancer, has not been set.


“NBC is as courageous as Farrah for airing the subject matter that she is filming in prime time,” Craig Nevius, the documentary’s producer, said in a statement released to Access.


“Jeffrey Zucker and VP of Alternative Programming and Specials Doug Vaughan, [who are] overseeing the project, have shown nothing but an unwavering support for Farrah, that has remained, above all, human.” Nevius added. “Her health and her message have remained their priority, instead of rushing the project to the air or grabbing at headlines. They have respected both her privacy and her creative voice. From the beginning, the network has insisted that ‘A Wing and A Prayer’ will air when both it and Farrah are ready.”

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> As she continues her battle, the actress said she believes there is an explanation for the disease she has so valiantly fought for three years.


“I’m holding on to the hope that there is some reason I got cancer and that there is something, that may not be very clear to me right now, that I will do,” Fawcett said during an interview shot for the documentary.


Nevius hopes chronicling Fawcett’s valiant fight will help to promote a heightened social awareness when it comes to cancer.


“Ultimately, the film will do what Farrah has always done so well: get people’s attention and get them talking,” he added. “And those are always the first steps toward effecting social change of any kind.”


Fawcett was first diagnosed with anal cancer in 2006.

Poor woman, on top of all of the stress of her illness, her 24 year old son (Ryan O'Neal is the father) was arrested on drug charges last September. She clearly is having a really rough go of it. My heart goes out to her. I do hope she pulls through.

Hey, sistacaf! Yes I believe you are correct, but if you watch the movie again you will see that Andy, the lead character in the movie, starts out with a poster of Rita Hayworth (as you stated) and then as the years go by he gets another poster, (Marilyn Monroe I think) and then finally he gets a poster of Farah. While he used all the posters to hide his plan Farah's poster was the one he used to cover the hole in the wall just prior to his escape.

The point being that he scraped and chiseled at that wall a little at a time for years and years. The fact that it took three or four generations of pin up girls demonstrated his determination.

Correction:

I have the movie here and just checked it out. The three posters that were used to hide his handy work were Rita Hayworth, Marylin Monroe and lastly, Racquel Welch. So yes I was wrong, Farah was not on the wall. Had he stayed in jail another decade then perhaps she would have been.

LOL...I have never watched anything that she starred in but it is kinda sad that a lot of men who were fascinated by Farrah will now lose her. I heard of her I can't remember how but I am sure it was because the Charlie's Angel Series was popular on the Rock!
