Alana Stewart and Farrah Fawcett went through it all together.
Friends for thirty years, they were an essential part of each
other's lives since first meeting at a dinner party in the 1970s.
During that time, they supported each other through the trials of
Hollywood life while also raising their families, keeping in close
contact.
But in the fall of 2006, a test of their friendship arose unlike
any other they'd faced: Farrah was diagnosed with aggressive rectal
cancer. She was determined to fight, and Alana was determined to
help her. Together, they were relentless in their pursuit of a
cure, traveling halfway around the world as they sought every
mainstream, alternative, and experimental therapy available. In
all, they spent the better part of the next three years
together--Alana by her friend's side as they struggled hand in hand
with the unknown.
Now, in these intimate and personal diaries, Alana shares her
thoughts on the events of the last three years, documenting the
journey she and Farrah embarked on as they prayed for a miracle.
Reflecting back on the three decades they shared, Alana details
what she's learned about her friend and herself as they battled
through the trials of this illness. From the importance of
selflessness, to the undeniable value of faith, to the remarkable
resilience of the human spirit, Alana's day-to-day entries reveal a
side of these two friends that the world has never seen. Even in
the face of this debilitating disease, Farrah's courage and
determination continues to teach us about life . . . and love.
Writing candidly about aging, marriage, motherhood, and
faith--all topics she and Farrah dealt with together over the
years--Alana provides a moving tribute to a woman, once Hollywood's
golden girl, and an inspiring celebration of life. "My Journey with
Farrah" is the story of two courageous women who stood by each
other through good times, bad times, and now the most trying of
times. It is a book that will make people laugh, cry, and rejoice
in the power of friendship.
