Farrah Fawcett comfortable but treatment has ended in her cancer battle

Ryan O’Neal has opened up about his experiences along long time partner, Farrah Fawcett, who has been battling cancer for the last two years. Farrah, 62, was diagnosed with anal cancer in September 2006. Four months later she declared herself cancer-free only to have the disease return in May 2007.

O’Neal has been Farrah’s caretaker since she was first diagnosed with colon cancer, and while they had originally been hopeful that she would win the war, it seems as though the battle may have taken everything she has.

“She stays in bed now,” O’Neal said.

“The doctors see that she is comfortable. Farrah is on IVs, but some of that is for nourishment. The treatment has pretty much ended.”

In the highly personal interview with People Magazine he says:

“It’s a love story. I just don’t know how to play this one. I won’t know this world without her,” O’Neal confided tearfully. “Cancer is an insidious enemy.”

A documentary about Farrah’s two-and-a-half year battle with anal cancer, is set to air on NBC on May 15, the network said on Tuesday.

The former “Charlie’s Angels” star chronicles her private struggles and her treatments in the United States and Germany in “Farrah’s Story,” Shot with her own home video recorder and narrated by Fawcett.
