Died today, or maybe yesterday, of her pancreatic cancer. She was 62.
from http://www.montrealgazette.com/Health/Documentary+records+Farrah+Fawcett+battle+with+cancer/1601838/story.html:
She fought the disease hard, and quietly, travelling six times to Germany for alternative treatments that included chemotherapy and laser surgery. The camera was with her in the spring of 2007, when she thought she had it beat, and it was with her when the cancer returned and spread to her liver and she was vomiting into a bedpan, insisting filming continue because “this is what cancer is.”
