Priest reads cancer-stricken Fawcett ‘her last rites’
By ANIThursday, June 25, 2009
WASHINGTON - A priest was reportedly summoned to Farrah Fawcett’s bedside to read the cancer-stricken actress her last rites.
The former Charlie’s Angels star was rushed to a California hospital again earlier this week as she continues to battle anal cancer.
A priest was said to have read the devout Catholic her last rites in intensive care on June 24, reports Contactmusic.
According to TV news show Extra, Fawcett’s 90-year-old father, James, was allegedly rushing to be with his daughter while her partner, Ryan O’Neal, was apparently trying to arrange a temporary jail release for the pair’s son Redmond so he can join family and friends at his mother’s bedside.
Fawcett was hospitalised in April for internal bleeding not related to her disease, which had spread to her liver. (ANI)
