No one is immune

Did anyone see the Farrah Fawcett story on TV last night? WOW. It was incredible! I noticed that it's on again right now and will be on again tomorrow. You've got to see it! She did a video journal of her experiences over the past several years with her rare type of cancer, the treatments she has endured in LA as well as in Germany, and most importantly - her feelings and how it has changed her life. It was very touching and extremely emotional. I wonder if famous people realize how much they help the cause by making their experiences public? A star can do so much just by speaking out. While none of us would wish any hurt or pain on another human, we should all be thankful to those who try to help the cause by making their personal struggles known to all. It's not easy putting yourself out there like an open book for all to read. But regardless, none of us are immune to the debilitating, horric effects of cancer. Pray for all who have to endure this awful disease. I will add Farrah to my daily prayers.

  1. I saw parts of her story. It was very touching. I am glad that she was brave enough to put her story out there for everyone even though the media gave her some bad coverage for it.
