 Farrah Fawcett: Talks about cancer
American actress Farrah Fawcett, who is suffering from anal cancer, has finally broken the silence about her battle with the disease to Los Angeles Times reporter.
In an interview, Fawcett told, "It's much easier to go through something and deal with it without being under a microscope".
The former "Charlie's Angels" star, 62, has endured much of her illness in the spotlight.
Fawcett told the Times, "People call, ‘How are you?’ ‘How do you feel?’ ‘We’re praying for you.’ ‘Do you still have your hair? . . . When every single call is that kind of call . . . it’s all you talk about. It’s all consuming. Then, your quality of life is never the same".
A three-hour interview was actually conducted at Fawcett's house in last August. She struck a deal with the Times that the story wouldn't be printed until five days before the documentary was scheduled to air.
In the interview, she condemned the National Enquirer for publishing the details about her illness, including some that she said were false. And she criticized UCLA Medical Center for failing to protect her medical records from snooping employees.
Fawcett's battle with anal cancer will be brought to the public in a documentary called "Farrah's Story" on Friday on NBC.
