Farrah Fawcett has been hospitalized and is in bad shape, sources close to family and friends tell RadarOnline.com exclusively.
She has been battling cancer for three years and recently returned from Germany, where she had experimental stem-cell treatment. Sources told RadarOnline.com that she is critical but stable in a Los Angeles-area hospital. They also say she is unconscious and has been hospitalized for days.
Long-time love Ryan O’Neal has been by Farrah’s bedside, as has troubled son Redmond, who bolted from rehab earlier this week.
Farrah, 62, was diagnosed with anal cancer in 2006 and later pronounced cancer free at a press conference.
It is not known whether she will survive.

That's very sad news. Miracles can happen, though. This poster graced the walls of countless rooms of adolescent males during the late 1970s. “I would give no thought of what the world might say of me, if I could only transmit to posterity the reputation of an honest man.” - Sam Houston
i remember. i see that she, like Aaron Russo, went to Germany for treatment. it may have only bought them both a little more time?

Tough to believe that '69 was forty years ago...
Time passes so quickly.
That famous poster of Farrah was actually made by Ted Trikilis.If that name sounds familiar.He was the guy who produced the Aranizer.The name of his co. was Aran Aqua.He was a big supporter of Republicbroadcasting.org.He was a interesting fella.I will miss him.He was a good friend.He died on Jan.27th of this year of a massive heart attack.His nephew does'nt know if he will continue with the co. or not.I hope he does,it is a great product.....John Stadtmiller
It is a great product. There's one integrated into our HVAC system, and two others are ready for use, whenever needed, in rentals.
Fawcett's cancer spread to liver, producer says
"She's on the mend and will be going home very shortly," said her producer, Craig Nevius. "She's doing fantastic. Her fight goes on. ... She's not going anywhere anytime soon." However, confirmation that the cancer had spread to such a distant site was dire news. The 62-year-old "Charlie's Angels" star was diagnosed with anal cancer in 2006, and originally was treated at UCLA with chemotherapy and radiation—not surgery as some have reported, Nevius said. She was declared in remission on Feb 2, 2007, but three months later, scans showed "not only had it recurred, it metastasized to her liver," Nevius said. The latest treatment in Germany tried to address the cancer's spread to that organ, he said. Nevius would not say where in Germany she was being treated, just that it was a clinic affiliated with some hospitals. He also would not give details on her treatments there, but said media reports that she was getting stem cell treatments were false. "It's never had anything to do with stem cells," or alternative treatments like shark cartilage, coffee enemas or unproven "detoxification" diets, Nevius said. "It's much more scientific than that. It's not a fringe treatment," he said, and the doctors have "multiple, multiple degrees." well, good. it sounds much more hopeful than the original reports.

"She had a minor procedure. That procedure led to a small amount of bleeding into a muscle in her abdominal wall," which created a sac of blood that caused pressure and pain, said her Los Angeles cancer specialist, Dr. Lawrence Piro. It was "a simple procedure" and a standard one, although Fawcett also has pursued experimental treatments in Germany, he added.
