DevonDeathTrip 2,358 Posted October 19, 2011 Gripping latest installment from The National Enquirer - who seem to have developed a bit of a fixation with Penny Marshall. Published on: October 20, 2011 by PATRICIA SHIPP & LYNN ALLISON, THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER PENNY MARSHALL’s cancer has returned – and spread to her lungs, sources say. Sadly, doctors have given the 68-year-old “Laverne & Shirley” star just months to live, according to insiders. The tragic news comes as Penny’s agent announced her plans to address the winning battle she fought with the deadly disease in 2009 in an upcoming memoir. It’s an abrupt about-face for the comic actress and acclaimed director, whose reps have repeatedly denied ENQUIRER reports that she’d undergone cancer treatment after being diagnosed with a malignant tumor found in her liver. “Penny is finally confirming her battle with cancer only because she wants her fans to read about it in her own words,” a close source told The ENQUIRER. “What her agent didn’t say is that Penny’s cancer has returned. Doctors are telling her that it’s Stage 4 and has spread to her lungs – and she may not have more than six months to live. “Now she’s furiously trying to finish her book, which is due to be published next fall.” Publishing sources believe Penny’s final chapter could detail her latest setback and renewed battle right up to when she hands in the manuscript. “Penny is getting chemotherapy treatments at a Los Angeles hospital every other week, and she’s on several medications,” the source revealed. “A specialist in New York also consults with her physicians in California. The doctors wanted to put her on stronger medications, but Penny refused, calling the meds ‘gnarly.’ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She is also determined to finish writing her memoir before kicking the bucket, and according to the article she's "working furiously to finish [it]"- which, to me, indicates that she is expecting to 'expire' soon and wants to get it done in a hurry.

DevonDeathTrip 2,358 Posted November 7, 2012 Last October, the National Enquirer gave Penny Marshall six months to live. Thirteen months later, nothing has changed: Published on: November 7, 2012by National Enquirer staff AFTER being told her cancer had returned with a vengeance, a devastated PENNY MARSHALL has given up on following doctors’ orders, say sources. “Unless someone convinces her to keep fighting, Penny will not make it much longer,” revealed a family insider. “Doctors are giving her only six months to live without treatment.” The 69-year-old comedy star and director had gone into remission from lung and brain cancer, but the source says she recently received the heartbreaking news that physicians found a large mass on her brain. “Penny vows she will not go through what she did before,” confided the insider. “There is pressure on her brain, and it’s starting to make her slur her words. It’s also affecting her reasoning, so surgeons need to operate as soon as possible. “But Penny said she’ll never go through surgery, radiation and chemotherapy again. “She’s also refusing to use oxygen, even though her lung capacity is only 40 percent and causing her to constantly struggle for breath. “In addition to the brain mass, she is suffering from renal failure and her other organs are starting to show signs of shutting down.” To make matters even worse, the defiant “Laverne & Shirley” star is smoking more than ever. Sadly, friends fear she’s given up her three-year battle against the dreaded disease. Said the insider: “Now, I think Penny is just trying to get her affairs in order.” http://www.nationalenquirer.com/celebrity/family-insider-penny-marshall-deadly-cancer-returns Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bibliogryphon 9,586 Posted October 1, 2014 What is happening here? I am sure a couple of years ago Penny was being touted as a definite hit in the coming year and made the DDP Drop Forty but things have gone very quiet. Good news or bad? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rotten Ali 600 Posted October 1, 2014 Some people get a long remission period. It's a toss up. You think they are fine, leave them off your team for the following year and like I had with Seve, they die within months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
