      tuttandheat, Kate Hudson is not Farrah Fawcett's daughter. Farrah had one child, a son. Kate Hudson is Goldie Hawn's daughter. I agree, Kate is a  really good actress...all three women are. Farrah was an excellent actress but most importantly she was a very courageous woman.

    It's wonderful that you have illuminated in he above article the fact that Farrah was very brave, and could have easily continued to act in Charlie's Angels rather than taking on those grittier roles. Those roles could well have pioneered the way for future plot developments. Even more significantly her desire to use her illness to shed light on a very unglamorous illness like anal cancer, what a courageous woman!

    I recently saw Farrah in the Burning Bed. Excellent! She was talented as well as beautiful inside and out. May she rest in peace.

    She was a model for the rest of us fighting cancer. While she lost the battle, she fought it with grace and courage. She made sure that the world knew how awful cancer is. It was a wonderful use of her celebrity and left me slack jawed in amazement and respect.

    The path of your life.

    The memory,
    sometimes, invites
    me to cry near
    the shade of
    an open field,
    like a dream
    near the light
    of a candle;
    but always my
    mind discovers
    the sadness
    recalling a young
    rose, that delicate
    look that now
    disappears in the
    song of a blond
    hair.

    Too bad, nobody should have to go that way.
