Farrah Fawcett hospitalization news has some good and bad

Published on April 6, 2009 at 5:30 PM

As we previously reported here Farrah Fawcett was back in the hospital with a cancer set back, but the good news is she is not in critical condition as was initially reported. Multiple sources close to Fawcett have confirmed that the cancer-stricken actress is not on her death bed and is actually being treated for a side effect of a recent procedure.  However the anal cancer Fawcett has been  treated for since 2006, has now spread to her liver.  Not good!

Fawcett’s Los Angeles-based doctor, Dr. Lawrence Piro, explained about the hospital visit:

“It turned out that the procedure caused a small amount of bleeding in one of the muscles of her abdomen, making a hematoma, which was quite painful,” explained Dr. Piro.

The doctor went on to describe Farrah’s positive outlook on the procedure. “She remains in good spirits with her usual sense of humor. She’s been in great shape her whole life and has an incredible resolve and an incredible resilience.”

The 62-year-old “Charlie’s Angels” star was declared in remission on Feb. 2, 2007, but three months later, scans showed “not only had it recurred, but it metastasized to her liver.
