Intimate scenes of Farrah Fawcett's fight against cancer have been released.
The images show her journey over the last 18 months of a battle against what has become terminal cancer.
She was happy to film the moving footage of her lying in her hospital bed and dressed in a hospital gown as she undergoes treatment.
The pictures are taken from a documentary, Farrah's Story, which is due to be screened in the U.S. on Friday.
Farrah, 62, initially began filming her treatment in January last year, after her cancer returned.
Farrah was diagnosed with the disease in 2006 and was originally given the all-clear after initial treatment, until it came back with a vengeance.
Her condition has now deteriorated so badly that she is bed-ridden and has lost all her hair.
She first began to record her trips to Germany as she sought the latest medical treatment, taping her doctors' words so that she would remember everything she was told.
The footage was then turned into a documentary with the help of NBC.
Today her long-term lover Ryan O'Neal spoke about her courage and said she had always assumed she would ultimately beat the cancer.
He recalled a time she was told she was cancer-free, saying she was 'very very' optimistic.
'It was like, 'Yea! YES!' She was so happy,' he said.
'It's insidious, cancer. It thinks - it let's you think you're ahead.'
O'Neal said there were 'man times' for a 'couple of years' where they were convinced she had won the war.
Even at her most sick he insists she didn't mind the cameras.
'There were times where she got terribly ill and started to vomit. She didn't care.
'She was possessed, you know?
'She's been on film all her life, I guess, since she was 19 or 20. She didn't care.'

Kung Fu Star David Carradine Found Dead
Susan Thu 4 Jun - 21:31
5:19pm UK, Thursday June 04, 2009
Kung Fu and Kill Bill star David Carradine has been found hanged in a hotel room in Bangkok.
The American embassy in Thailand confirmed the 72-year-old had been found dead in the capital, where he was filming.
Reports said Caradine had failed to appear for a meal with the film crew on Wednesday and that his body was found by a hotel maid at the Park Nai Lert hotel the following morning.
Police said there were no signs of a struggle or other suspicious circumstances and are treating the death as suicide.
Carradine was a member of a Hollywood acting family that included his father, character actor John Carradine, and brother Keith.
He appeared in more than 100 feature films with such directors as Martin Scorsese, Ingmar Bergman and Hal Ashby.
One of his prominent early film roles was as singer Woody Guthrie in Ashby's 1976 biopic Bound for Glory.
He was perhaps most famous for his role as the fugitive half Chinese Shaolin monk Kwai Chang Caine in the 1970s western TV drama Kung Fu.
After Kung Fu, Carradine starred in the 1975 cult flick Death Race 2000.
He starred with Liv Ullmann in Bergman's The Serpent's Egg in 1977 and with his brothers in the 1980 Western The Long Riders.
His career dwindled after the 1980s to appearing in low budget films but received a major boost when he starred in Quentin Tarantino's two-part Kill Bill films in 2003 and 2004.

Designer Alexander McQueen 'hanged himself'
Susan Wed 17 Feb - 14:01
Fashion designer Alexander McQueen hanged himself in a wardrobe after leaving a note, an inquest in London has been told.
He was found dead at his London home on Thursday, as final preparations were being made for his spring collection to be unveiled in Paris.
Westminster Coroner's Court was told a post-mortem examination had said he had died due to asphyxiation and hanging.
Mr McQueen died on the eve of the funeral of his mother, Joyce.
Further investigation
The five-minute hearing was told his body had been identified on the day of his death by his sister, Janet McQueen, of Hornchurch, Essex.
Det Insp Paul Armstrong told the inquest there were no suspicious circumstances.
He presented the note found at the scene to the coroner, Dr Paul Knapman, for further investigation.
Coroner's officer Lynda Martindill said no report of the post-mortem examination was yet available.
Dr Knapman adjourned the inquest until 1000 GMT on 28 April.
Reporters were passed a note asking them to respect the McQueen family's privacy.
Mr McQueen was named British designer of the year four times after 1996.
His close friend fashion stylist Isabella Blow, who helped launch his career, killed herself in 2007.
Performing at the Brit awards on Tuesday night, Mr McQueen's friend Lady Gaga dedicated a song to him.

How sad, when a successful and talented man, is so unhappy with his life he has to take it. I hope he is at peace now.

There are some suggestions that it was not a simple suicide and some auto erotic asphyxiation was involved,apparently he was found in a wardrobe !
