Farrah's Story Follow-Up Planned

This morning, Ryan O’Neal confirmed to The Today Show that there will be a follow-up documentary to Farrah’s Story, which first aired on Friday, May 15.

O’Neal told co-host Meredith Viera, “We haven’t stopped filming and we’re going to make a second installment of her life eventually." Millions of viewers tuned in to NBC to watch the harrowing tale of Farrah's struggle with cancer, but a source close to the film reveals that a follow-up would touch on other issues as well. “Her type of cancer is largely curable if caught (early), and there’s been criticism that Farrah’s Story didn’t get that across,” the source said. “The documentary wasn’t meant to be medical, in a sense, but it’s fair to address it, since Farrah wanted people to learn from this.”

Did you watch Farrah's Story? We were in tears the entire time...



So sad...

Yes and it was absolutely heart wrenching. Could this have been stopped if she had gotten a colonoscopy?



Posted by: Heart goes out

Such a good documentary. I really felt her spirit and those that love her. She looked so tired at the end. I bet it is not looking good for her right now. Its hard at the end I've been there with a loved one. All you can do is make them as comfortable as possible and keep the loved ones close by.

CAP LOCKS @ 1:52, your cruel diatribes are out of control! In all seriousness, you are in dire need of a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and probably institutionalization. The sooner the better.

Oh man, I tried to watch that and just couldn't handle it about a half an hour into it when she started vomiting during the liver treatment! That was some seriously sad stuff and not much phases me, but that did! She may not get 'better', but whatever time she has left, I hope that it goes as by as smoothly as possible and for as long as possible! I hope her family chills the f out, so she doesn't have to worry about them too! Good luck!



Posted by: whats up with caps lock rant?

2:15 yes it is awful Cancer is not about putting on a pink tshirt and jogging around. This is what cancer looks like and it's not pretty.

THE CAPS LOCK 1:52.. Well I am tired of retired actress telling their stories and now saying their is more but not MEDICAL..GET IT!! No I do not need to be institutionized..I do not want to see her vomit during her liver treatment.. And no I will not watch anymore documentaries on her..P.S Why does her family need to chill when they
are the ones putting this out.!!



Posted by: PUT THE WORD OUT GET CHECKED NOW

IF CAUGHT EARLY THAN IT MAY BE CURED BUT
NOT IN THIS DOCUMENTARY!! WHAT DOES THAT
TELL YOU..

She refused the best treatment for herself for months. Yes it is sad but she should have taken the first treatment option

I get it, cancer is no good, 1 in 3 will die from it and it's horrific, I already know all this. Frankly, I think watching someone die on TV is depraved. Any cancer caught early is better then late , that's obvious. What's the next reality thing on TV? Murder?

3:04 Did someone tie you to a chair and forced you to watch? No. You don’t GET IT because you are a heartless animal.

1:52/3:04 is something that has never experienced the horrors of someone going through cancer.
I have and that was my mom. It's ugly, extremely uncomfortable, majorly painful, and unfortunately something a lot of us will have to go through: ourselves or a loved one.
Farrah was smart to put this out so those who have never experienced cancer can see the true horrors of it. Hope, No Hope, etc, etc.
Who knows, maybe Farrah "stole" 1:52/3:04's 15 minutes of fame way back when and is still bitter to this day. Or maybe it's just a sadistic psycho who needs attention. And with an ugly, unsympathetic attitude hopefully cancer will strike this moron.
God Bless, Farrah, and when it's time, you'll move on.
