Stars' cancer comes back

Kathryn Joosten (69), who plays the awesome Mrs McCluskey on Desperate Housewives, has been diagnosed with lung cancer again. She first battled the disease in 2001. She told America’s People magazine, "I felt like the legs had been pushed out from under me. I completely did not expect it, and was devastated. I was crying for nearly five days straight." Survivor’s Ethan Zohn’s cancer has also resurged, and he told People USA, "I have never been so scared in my life, for my life. It was a complete punch in the face. It's quite rare that not only is there re-growth, but that there's re-growth so quickly. I was obviously resistant to the first form of chemotherapy."
