Farrah Fawcett family and doctors say she is not “close to dying”

Farrah Fawcett is confirmed to be in the hospital, but her condition might not be as serious as reported earlier.

Ryan O’Neal is denying reports his long-time spouse Farrah Fawcett is ‘close to dying’.

A producer who has worked with Farrah Fawcett confirmed that the actress has checked into a Los Angeles hospital. Craig Nevius told the Associated Press that the 62-year-old ‘Charlie’s Angels’ star was hospitalized due to a blood clot that was potentially a side effect of treatment she had in Germany.

One of Farrah’s physicians, Lawrence Piro, stated that the Fawcett had abdominal bleeding and a hematoma while getting aggressive alternative cancer treatments in Germany.

“She’s able to walk. And she remains in good spirits with her usual sense of humor,” Piro said.

It has been a difficult past few days for the family.  Redmond O’Neal, the 24-tear-old son of Fawcett and Ryan O’Neal, is once again back behind bars after police found narcotics on him him near a detention centre in Castaic, California.

He was stopped in a car park and his vehicle was searched on suspicion of attempting to smuggle narcotics into Santa Clarita jail, as he was trying to visit a friend.
