Bruce Paltrow

Bruce Paltrow (1943-2002) American director and producer, known for the groundbreaking TV series 'St Elsewhere' and a string of series like "The Mind of the Married Man" and "Brilliant, but Cancelled." He was also known for his unusually (by Hollywood standards) long and happy marriage to actress Blythe Danner.
Their daughter Gwyneth is also one of the most renowned actresses of her generation, and her husband, Chris Martin of Coldplay fame, wrote the song 'White Shadows' (on the X&Y album, which is dedicated to Bruce Paltrow) as a tribute to Bruce. 'The White Shadow' was the name of a primetime series that Bruce created in 1978, the first ever series to feature a mostly African-American cast.

Paltrow was diagnosed with oral cancer, which hits about 40,000 Americans every year. If it's diagnosed early enough it can be cured relatively easily; Paltrow, however, didn't go in for a check-up until long after his voice had become very hoarse. Because most people, like Paltrow, aren't particularly aware of the symptoms and dangers of head and neck cancers, three out of five people are not diagnosed until they are in Stage III or IV. Blythe Danner is now serving as a spokesperson, trying to get it across to the general public that they should get yearly screenings and that even their dentist can check for oral cancer by feeling all around the mouth and neck and observing around the tongue.
Although people tend to think of oral cancer as being related to smoking, in women at least half of cases are related to other factors such as heavy drinking or a bad diet. Human papillomavirus (HPV) is also a risk factor. Although roughly 80 percent of the population will contract HPV during their lifetime and an estimated 95 percent of cases will clear themselves, a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine found that people who have more than five oral sex partners were nine times more likely to develop oropharyngeal cancer (at the base of the tongue or in the tonsils) and the odds rose to 32 times for those who were infected with HPV.
Bruce was declared to be in remission after radical surgery and radiation and went back to filming 'Duets' with his daughter Gwyneth Paltrow a mere 13 days later. But the cancer returned and he died quite suddenly from a combination of pneumonia and complications of the recurrence, while celebrating Gwyneth’s birthday with her in Rome in 2002.
Symptoms of oral cancer include a lingering sore throat, trouble swallowing, hoarseness, an unhealed sore or lump in the mouth or throat, blocked sinuses that can't be cleared, a white or red patch in the mouth, difficulty swallowing or moving the jaw or tongue, a pain in one ear, or numbness in the tongue. These symptoms don't necessarily mean you have oral cancer, but if they last for longer than two weeks you should get them checked out....View full story

Health tip of the day:

Quit smoking! Smoking is the number one cause of premature death in every country on the globe; cigarettes contain over 3,000 chemicals, including Formaldehyde (used to preserve dead bodies), Hydrogen cyanide (rat poison), Acetone (used in nail polish remover), and Hydrazine (used in rocket fuel).
