Actor Ryan O’Neal Diagnosed With Prostate Cancer

Only a few years after losing the love of his life, Farrah Fawcett to the horrible disease, Ryan O’Neal has been diagnosed with stage four prostate cancer.

“Recently I was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer.  Although I was shocked and stunned by the news, I feel deeply fortunate that it was detected early and according to my extraordinary team of doctors the prognosis is positive for a full recovery”.

O’Neal, 70, was treated in the late 1990’s for myelogenous leukemia, which causes the bone marrow to produce too many white blood cells.

As stated by Ryan, thankfully it has been detected earlier enough and the necessary steps can be made to battle his illness.  Wishing you all the best Ryan.
