Farrah Fawcett: Recovery is 'Ongoing'

Farrah Fawcett is finally opening up about her cancer battle, giving only “Extra” a candid and emotional interview about her recovery.

“I’m doing well,” Farrah told “Extra” as she left a hospital in Santa Monica last night. “Never can say for sure. It’s ongoing.”

The “Charlie’s Angels” star received devastated news in May, when she learned her intestinal cancer had returned. Vowing to fight, Farrah flew to Germany for alternative treatment. Now Farrah is proving she’s still got her sense of humor intact!

“You know, it’s filled with Germans,” Farrah quipped when asked about her time there.

In a rare and raw confession, Farrah then revealed the toll her treatments have taken on her.

“Tiring, yes. I felt much better when I was sick!” she said. “It’s the curing it.”

Still, Farrah said her treatments “went well.” She’s also taking steps to recover her physical strength.

“I’ve been doing Pilates and weights,” she said.

She’s also got the support of longtime love Ryan O’Neal and fans around the world.

“You know, everybody says they are praying for me,” she said. “I have to get well – so many people are praying.”

Farrah,
I just found out that my sister has breast cancer and it has gone to her bones already. She had just lost her 29 year old daughter (my Niece) in April and it has been a very tough year for the all of us.She’s my very best friend and I just can’t imagine her not here with me. I just ask that everyone say a prayer for her and of course I pray that you improve too with your illness. You are a remarkable woman. God Bless You.

Farrah, you are a naturally beautiful woman…no makeup required. The interviewer was very insensative to your situation…needs sensativity training, Texas Style. Keep up the good fight. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Bill

Extra —- this is NOT an interview, this is simply following a person with a camera while they are trying to get in a car after leaving a medical facility. There is one thing “interviewing” people —- when they are on a red carpet or leaving a restaurant.

Oh, and you say its the only interview, saw the SAME thing on another show.

Good luck to Farrah — but Extra is like all shows, ignores peoples privacy especially facing illnesss. No class.
