Dennis Hopper was diagnosed with prostate cancer
Dennis Hopper was diagnosed with prostate cancer, revealed by Sam Maydew, Hopper’s manager. The actor and filmmaker is being treated in a special program at the University of Southern California, according to reports.
Hopper was expected to appear at an exhibition of his photography at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image in Melbourne but has cancelled in order to focus on treatment.
“We’re hoping for the best,” Maydew said. No other details were immediately available.
On September 30, Hopper was hospitalized in New York for flu-like symptoms and stomach pains. He was released the next day feeling “much better,” according to reports.
The 73-year-old Academy Award winner is known for his roles in “Rebel Without a Cause,” “Hoosiers,” “Apocalypse Now” and “Easy Rider” — the latter of which he also directed — among scores of other films.
Hopper recently finished shooting the second season of the Starz drama “Crash,” based on the 2006 Oscar-winning film.

I have lost two friends recently to cancer. About a week after my friend, Steve Louden, passed away with bladder cancer, I ran across a health expert on TV who was interviewing an Italian oncologist telling about his extremely effective cancer cure protocol. Apparently, the treatment is quite inexpensive, side-effect free, permanent and works for all types of cancer (90% cure rate) other than that of the bones. He spoke of using hyperthermia at certain clinics in Germany for bone cancer patients. Dr. Simoncini’s clinic is in Rome and he has been curing cancer quite successfully with his technique for over 30 years. Had I known about him sooner, I would have put my friend on a jet for Rome and gotten him back in great health in about 48 days.
I hope Dennis has validated his passport to heaven (Luke 9:23f) because, unless he sees Dr. Simoncini, he will probably be desperately in need of it soon. Over 500,000 people die yearly using conventional therapy–poison, cut and burn.
