I'm sure many of you know Spartacus TV series. This guy is the main actor, Andy Whitfield.
I was so impressed by his acting in the series that I like it so much. I watched the season 1 about 6 months ago and I just recently watched the season 2. Then I realized that he is not the main actor anymore. Of course I was just thinking that maybe he refused the role. But the reality turned out to be even worse. He died in September 2011 because of cancer, and I didn't even know. I was so shocked and sad. Because he looked so strong in Spartacus. You will not have the slightest idea that he can fall sick. Just take a look!

Andy actually want to be in season 2 of Spartacus, but because of the illness, he had to withdraw him self from the role. Then he went everywhere to try and find cure for cancer. Doctor even told him that he only had 3 to 6 months to live. But in the end he managed to live on until 18 months. He left behind a spouse and 2 young children.
Please have a look at the preview of his documentary about cancer. It is about his battle against cancer. They are also trying to raise money so that they can complete the documentary. He wanted this video to help other people who also suffer cancer like him and hopefully to be able to find the cure in the future.
Be here now! that is Andy motto. Enjoy and live the moment because we really never know when our time is up. But of course do not forget to take care your loved ones.
Andy, we missed you. I'm sure that your wife and 2 kids are very proud of you. Rest in peace. God bless.
Cheers! Have a great day.
