George Harrison Reportedly Losing Cancer Battle

From ABCNews.com

George Harrison's battle against cancer reportedly has reached the point where his loved ones are preparing for the inevitable, a British newspaper reports.
London's Sunday People tabloid reported this weekend that the former Beatle may have only a week to live.

Citing a family friend, the paper said Harrison's wife Olivia and their son Dhani have been told he could slip away "at any time." Harrison has even lost interest in eating, the paper said.

No Luck With Radical Procedure

Harrison, 58, left New York's Staten Island University Hospital last week after undergoing an experimental type of radiosurgery. That process reportedly did not stop Harrison's brain tumor from spreading. He flew from New York to UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles to treat the inoperable malignancy with the more conventional chemotherapy.

Harrison is said to be weak and near the end of his life. But Sunday People said the rock star is not giving up.

"George is fighting to the end," the paper quoted the friend as saying.
Both Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr both reportedly visited Harrison at Staten Island University Hospital last week.
