For Farrah (and especially ourselves) we must rethink our own health and wellness strategies, and then get off our butts and execute our plans:
1. De-Stress I’ve been allowing stress to suck the life out of me. How about you, especially in these difficult economic times? Is stress taking its toll on you and your families? If so, we must not let stress win. Stress causes our health to be compromised, and we can no longer afford to let that happen.
2. Stop and Think Re-evaluate your life and your current state of health. I’m saying re-evaluate because we really need to take a moment out of our busy lives to think about ourselves; if not for ourselves, then at least for Farrah’s sake. We must honestly evaluate how we are promoting health and wellness in our lives. Then, we must create the best preventative health and wellness plan we can afford.
3. Network Use our networks to share and encourage health and wellness among our friends. Let’s also begin a grass roots effort to de-politicize cancer. Let’s make health and wellness a part of sharing and caring in our social networks for Farrah.
Thank you, Farrah, for your life. We all wanted to be beautiful like you were when we were young, and now, today, we want to be beautiful like you are, as we’re growing older.

Great article, Alie! On a light note: I remember when I was in high school (78'-80'), and even had the Farrah Fawcett hair-cut, just like every other girl. LOL On a more somber thought, it is truly sad what she is going through and my heart goes out for her, however, I am not quite ready to watch Farrah's documentaryâ€"â€"but I will. Cancer is extremely devastating, and I am glad you are a survivorâ€"I hope and pray Farrah is one too. Keep up the "cause" and we will all be healthier for it!

The views of reasonable people will matter much more to the fate of health reform than the protesters would lead you to think. Alie. Cancer is extremely devastating, and I am glad you are a survivor.
