After recently announcing her victory against cancer, Farrah Fawcett has to cope up with tremendous fact that her cancer is back.
Farrah Fawcett's cancer has returned, it has been claimed. The former 'Charlie's Angels' actress, who was diagnosed with cancer after doctors discovered a tumour in her lower intestine last October, was allegedly left devastated after doctors found a small, malignant polyp during a recent examination.
Doctors have planted a "small metallic seed" in the cancerous area following concerns the polyp could increase the risk of the cancer spreading, according to Access Hollywood. A polyp is an abnormal growth of tissue often found in the colon, stomach and small intestine.
Farrah, 60, happily announced she was cancer-free in February, saying: "This is an extraordinarily happy day for me and my family. I have been on a journey for the past four months and during this time received a tremendously aggressive treatment which doctors initially warned me would be the most difficult fight of my life. In the face of excruciating pain and uncertainty, I never lost hope and it never occurred to me to stop fighting - not ever. To those who are still struggling toward their own victory, stay determined, 'fight the fight'. I am deeply grateful to my team of physicians, my loving and supportive family and devoted friends who have sustained me as I battled this terrible disease."
Farrah's friends and family have praised her for her incredible bravery. Fellow former 'Charlie's Angel' star
Jaclyn Smith said: "Farrah is great and fine now. She was surrounded with love and lots of friends."
