Speaking with a reporter for the first time since her cancer diagnosis in September 2006, Farrah Fawcett says that the most difficult aspect of her ordeal has been the lack of respect for her privacy and people’s obsession with it.
Though the interview was conducted in August, it is being published today, Monday, in anticipation of her 2 hour documentary for NBC, Farrah’s Story, airing this Friday.
The Charlie’s Angels alum says that the constant media invasion further diminished her quality of life because “I’m a private person. I’m shy about people knowing things. And I’m really shy about my medical [care]. It would be good if I could just go and heal and then when I decided to go out, it would be okay. It seems that there are areas that should be off-limits.”
Not only that, but she says that the cancer “becomes your life. People call, ‘How are you?’ ‘How do you feel?’ ‘We’re praying for you.’ ‘Do you still have your hair?’ ‘What do you feel like?’ When every single call is that kind of call ├óΓé¼┬ª it’s all you talk about.”
We hope that Farrah is able to find some peace and comfort as she spends her last days with family and friends.
