Farrah Fawcett Out of Hospital, Son Held Without Bail on New Charges

With her pain subsiding, Farrah Fawcett left the hospital Thursday with longtime companion Ryan O'Neal after being treated for internal bleeding not directly related to her cancer.

"She's walking and in great in spirits and looking forward to celebrating Easter at home," her treating physician, Dr. Lawrence Piro, tells People. "Her home has been stocked with her favorite teas and food and she's looking forward to enjoying them."

Fawcett, 62, had been hospitalized in Los Angeles since April 2 in the latest setback while enduring a long battle with anal cancer, first diagnosed in 2006. She was being treated for a hematoma from bleeding in a stomach muscle stemming from a "small procedure" at a clinic in Germany, Piro has said.

"Farrah was discharged [Thursday] afternoon from the hospital and is at home. She was accompanied by Ryan," said Piro. "The pain from the hematoma has improved tremendously."

A judge ordered Redmond O’Neal, Farrah's son, held without bail this morning. He appeared in LAX Municipal court on a probation violation related to an arrest last year.

Redmond admitted to a “dirty” drug test in rehab, which triggered the judge to order him held at least until April 17.

This matter was unrelated to his arrest Sunday outside a jail facility. He was found with heroin in his pocket.

Redmond was shackled, looked exhausted and appeared in court for only approximately two minutes.

Redmond, 24, will remain in custody at the Twin Towers Correctional Facility in Los Angeles.
