Paul Newman has Lung Cancer

Paul NewmanCancer has laid claim on yet another brilliant actor. Nowadays Paul Newman is best known for being founder of "Newman's Own", which offers various food products, like spaghetti sauce and salad dressing. Some of you older folks also know him as 'Butch Cassidy' in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and 'Brick Pollitt' in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Awesome movies.

According to the National Enquirer a good friend of Mr. Newman revealed that "We have known he is seriously ill for several weeks but his loved ones are being very protective and saying very little."

So sad

The legendary actor was diagnosed with the cancer at the New York's Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, located just a few hours drive from his Connecticut home, where he lives with his beautiful wife Joanne Woodward.Paul Newman

A cancer patient there said that "He's been there a lot, he's even worked out in the waiting room, doing the squat thrusts. Last time, he was in there he had a long beard. Joanne is there waiting for him and being very sweet with the assistants."

Paul has been known as a chain smoker. See kids, smoking isn't cool and cancer doesn't care if you are a famous and talented actor. It can claim anyone! Go here to learn more. Lung cancer is preventable.

    My mom died of lung cancer. She didn't smoke a day in her life! I pray Mr. Newman has better odds. Good luck to you, sir!
