Farrah Fawcett and

[Guest guest]

I picked up a People magazine last Friday and it had the stories of both Farran

Fawcett and , who's cancers have now spread much more

extensively. As most people know, Farrah is dying. I will be watching the

documentary of her treatment this Friday at 9pm PST.

No matter which path we choose, cancer is a heart-breaking illness. My heart

goes out to these cancer survivors. Farrah tried alternative treatments in

Germany, which caused abdominal bleeding and other complications.

None of us know what the end result of our efforts will be in this battle

against this deadly and very serious illness. Back in 1994 when I was fighting

what I thought was a hopeless battle, I thought to myself, " What if none of this

works? I would be wasting my time, maybe my last moments on earth. " But then the

other voice told me, " But what if you don't at least TRY? "

Here's to all the courageous cancer survivors on this website and around the

world who are trying to beat this terrible illness. I wish all of us well. But

there are no guarantees. When I read a story like Farrah's or 's, it

scares me because I can't deny that cancer KILLS people. It is now estimated

that 40% of the American population will get some form of cancer in their

lifetime.

By the way, everyone, I am doing great. I feel wonderful. I hike 12-15 miles a

week and work out at the gym. I am 100% back!!!

I am starting an intensive 90 day cleanse of all my body's organs. I am allowing

for some seafood at my sister's beach cottage in North Carolina next month,

however. Here's to Jim wanting to enjoy his life with a bit of animal protein!!!

I am going to enjoy the heck out of my seafood. I haven't eaten fish in a long

time. This may be the only time for quite a while, but I am looking forward to

it. It will be fresh right out of the sea. And no, I'm not going to worry about

the bit of mercury in one night's pleasure.
