Paul Newman tells loved ones he wants to die at home
Get out your Kleenex, people.
You're gonna need it.
According to new reports, actor Paul Newman has weeks to live and has told his family that he wants to die at home.
Newman has finished chemotherapy treatment for cancer and was photographed leaving a New York hospital in a wheelchair. He looks predictably frail and fragile. Click here to see the photo.
"Paul didn't want to die in the hospital," a source has said.
Newman has made only one public statement about his condition: that he is doing "nicely."
Which speaks volumes about this amazing and private man.
We're hoping for more word today on Newman's condition from his spokesman, Jeff Sanderson at Warren Cowan and Associates in Los Angeles.

Now that is truly sad, but as another commenter noted, he's had a good, long, full life, and you can't ask for better than that. A great actor, a class act, and still the best-looking guy in Hollywood.
Paul Newman is a icon. Watch any of his old movies and the current crop of male leads can't hold a candle to him.
Not Paul Newman! The ranks of the 'old greats' are thinning fast. I always thought that Paul would be 'forever'. It is very sad.
I am 57 and Paul has always been my favorite . Even though he is ill he still looks great. God be with you Paul, always in my prayers.
you are a great men keep well we love you mr newman art
Mr. Newman I ask God to take you into His loving hands and lead you home gently. You were a true gentleman and someone to admire always. Thanks for your lifes work.
Paul...You are a credit to your Country. You are so smart and have made a great contribution to all of us through your acting and charity work.
God Bless.
