[Farrah's battle ended 6/25/2009]
NBC News has licensed and will repackage footage of Farrah Fawcett's battle with cancer for a special to air... [Friday 5/15].
"Farrah's Story," a two-hour special, will air May 15 at 9 p.m. It will include video Fawcett shot during her struggle with anal cancer.
"This film is very personal," said Fawcett, 62, in one of the clips. "At the time, I didn't know if anybody would ever see it. But at some point, the footage took on a life of its own and dictated that it be seen."
Her health has been the subject of much speculation recently, after she went abroad for treatment. Last month, with reports surfacing that she was near death, Craig Nevius, a producer on the NBC special, said Fawcett's cancer had metastasized and spread to her liver.
"She's doing fantastic," he said then. "Her fight goes on. ... She's not going anywhere anytime soon."
Fawcett was diagnosed with cancer in 2006 and had surgery to remove a tumor. After chemotherapy, she was said to be cancer free. But the disease returned in 2007.
Her friend Alana Stewart shot most of the video in the special. Also appearing will be long-time love Ryan O'Neal, Jaclyn Smith, Kate Jackson, Fawcett's father, Jim, and her doctors.
NBC paid an undisclosed fee to license the footage and is producing it in conjunction with Fawcett.
"This is an incredibly intimate and moving story about Farrah's struggle," Doug Vaughan, NBC's senior vice president of specials and alternative development, said in a statement. "Farrah wanted us to see the face of cancer and she wanted to set the record straight regarding her diagnosis, her treatment and her outlook on the future."
Much more....

Dear Lorraine,
The following is an incredible cancer story and testimony of Nick Kairinos and the truth about cancer.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Friends:
As most of you know, I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of bladder cancer in 2005. Until recently, I was working with doctors to treat this disease. It's now over 2 years later and I am no better off than I was when I was first diagnosed!
I recently realized that depending on doctors will never lead to a cure. I have taken responsibility for my cancer and I know that I caused it through poor lifestyle choices over the last 5 years. Stress and genetics have played a small role too, but my lifestyle caused it. Had it not been for poor nutrition, wallowing in negative emotion, having no faith, not exercising, and negative thinking, I would not have cancer today. I have no doubt that this is true. Cancer (and all other serious disease) according to Dr. Robert O. Young is not something that strikes us. It's something we do to ourselves.
Fortunately, it's also something we can undo...
In late June, I met with my doctors to discuss the results of my recent tests and biopsy. It was then that I found out that, despite all the medical treatment, things had only become worse. The only option the doctors could provide was radical surgery that would change my life completely. I won't go into the graphic details here, but believe me...it's life altering and fraught with risks, including elevated risks of other types of cancer. Riding the tube to Heathrow, I had a moment of clarity. I knew I had to heal myself with what nature has provided.
My story - and what I'm doing to cure myself of cancer - continues on my website, which is still a work-in-progress... http://www.stopdoingcancer.com/.
Please check it out and spread the word about it, especially to people who have been touched by cancer and have possibly been sent home to die. The only true cure for cancer is through natural means -
* proper nutrition
* healthy emotion
* regular exercise
* strong faith, and
* positive thinking.
I have made myself a guinea pig in a scientific experiment, to prove to the world that this is so.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Dr. Robert and Shelley Young for all their research, sacrafice and hard work and all of you for your love, kindness, and support over the last couple of years. I don't know how I would have made it through the last few years without you. Please help me get this message out. It's extremely important to me.
All the best,
Nick Kairinos

Dear Lorraine,
Cancer is a choice. This is what cancer patient and founder of http://www.stopdoingcancer.com/ - Nick Kay - believes as he perseveres in his battle against cancer.
Nick is in his 30's and has an aggressive form of bladder cancer. For the past few years, doctors have tried to treat Nick's cancer in a number of different ways, but nothing has worked. As a last resort, doctors proposed radical, life changing surgery. But Nick wasn't ready to take such a drastic step and, against the advice of his medical team, decided to treat his cancer using only natural means. Nick's doctors were not supportive of this decision, telling Nick that he would not see his children grow up unless he agreed to the surgery.
In 2007, Nick launched StopDoingCancer.com - a not-for-profit web site where Nick talks candidly about his battle against cancer. What makes StopDoingCancer.com unique is that unlike other web sites about cancer on the Internet - most of which offer general information about cancer or try to sell commercial products - Nick is sharing his personal experiences and findings as they are happening, hoping he will help and inspire others.
What Nick shares goes far beyond a written diary: his web site offers detailed and personal information, such as Nick's daily log where he documents what he eats and drinks every day, live blood analysis, weight graphs, pH graphs and more.
One of the reasons Nick named his web site "Stop Doing Cancer" is because Nick believes that people diagnosed with cancer are responsible for developing the disease. "I believe that cancer is not something that strikes us. It is something we do to ourselves because of the way we eat, move, think, feel, and so on," says Nick Kay. "I believe I will reverse my cancer by making better lifestyle choices and allowing my body to heal itself."
After reading many books and articles on cancer, Nick based his natural treatment program on "The pH Miracle" by Dr. Robert Young. "Essentially, Dr. Young states that all disease stems from an over-acidification of our tissues and fluids and that we can prevent and reverse most disease by living alkalizing lifestyles," says Nick. "I have definitely seen improvements since I started this program. For one, I look better than I have in a long, long time. People comment all the time on that. I also feel like I did in my 20's - strong and vibrant. I have boundless energy. I have hardly had any symptoms since I started the program, especially the last month, or so. "
StopDoingCancer.com also serves as a community for cancer patients and survivors, where people can post comments, ask questions and share their experiences and success stories. The response to StopDoingCancer.com has been very positive.
"Just think by transforming your health, there may be countless others that will be watching you and think if he can do it, why can't I? You will be in effect saving many other lives by saving your own!" - writes Kim from Boston, MA, USA in her posting on www.StopDoingCancer.com. And Lisa Woodard from Cary, NC writes: "I am totally blown away by the comprehensiveness and professionalism of your website!"
"My hope is that my website will inspire you and that you will learn from my actions and from everyone that shares their knowledge and stories on this website," says Nick Kay. For more information, please visit http://www.stopdoingcancer.com/.
