This special looks amazing and will be one of the few things on TV that can help people’s lives. Bravo Farrah for doing this. You are a brave and beautiful woman.
Im so looking forward to seeing this documentary.
Farrah has been a inspiration to so many for several
decades and this will help others feel less alone in their
battle with cancer. It takes courage to do something like this and to share it with the world.
God Bless you Farrah and keep fighting
What a brave woman and all my respect to such a great lady who only continues to inspire!
Stay strong Farrah
FARRAH, You win either way. Remember
A WING ,and A Prayer !
Blessings to you, A REAL ANGEL.

Thank you so much for sharing your journey, Farrah. I belong to an online forum of incredible SCAC survivors, and collectively we are behind you in courage, strength, and support.
In many ways this type of thing bothers me as I feel she should keep it private. I’m sure NBC will get a strong rating though.

As a boy,I remember the first time I saw the swimsuit poster.you were and still are so beautiful. god bless you.. thank you for your bravery.
For your bravery, your patience, the sharing of your most intimate struggles in order for us to gain knowledge, we thank you. In this world you have made a difference. May God rest you in the palm of his hand.
For your son and for Ryan, stand strong. You love because she loves.
I commend you for not giving up and you are still as beautiful as ever. I lost my very best friend in the whole world to cancer and I know she had so many of the same feelings you write about. There should be more research. Thank you for having the courage to tell your story, it touched my heart in many way. Keep fighting, don’t ever give up!
Farrah….thank you from a daughter who lost her mom to cancer for sharing your most intimate moments of this difficult journey you are on. You are truly an angel. Ryan, what an inspiration you are, too, to all of those who are traveling the journey with their loved ones. You two truly love each other and if anyone ever doubted that, I hope they see it now. Redmond, you have two parents to be so proud of and who love you. I know that treatment will help you and you will be the type of man who will be a shining star in honor of his mother. May God Bless you all……

You are an amazing inspriation for all of us and a kindred spirit with multi-faceted emotions that most people would not understand. Farrah, I do!!I pray for you. Christine Lalevee, Peace and love to you always!!
