Turns out I have been unclear. In my attempts to be artistic and profound, I have been vague. I haven’t really told you exactly what’s been going on in my life. The reason I haven’t been in my anchor chair for past few weeks is because I have brain cancer.
I got the diagnosis a couple weeks ago and have since been living the life of someone who has just found out they have brain cancer. My rockin’ neurosurgeon, Dr. Frank Coufal at Scripps Memorial in La Jolla, removed the large mass of it two weeks ago. I hung around ICU for about a week after that before I was released home. Since then, I have been meeting with the people who will make me all better. If you’re into the specifics of these types of things— it’s a grade 3, primary brain tumor called Anaplastic Astrocytoma, an aggressive type of brain cancer in my left frontal lobe. As a side note: that’s the area that controls speech, not optimum when you make your living as a San Diego Anchorman. Thankfully, I only lost my speech for a short while. The doctors tell me I have between 1 and 3 years to live.
So boo-hoo, poor me.
Oh yeah…I forgot to mention…I’m gonna beat this thing. Radiation starts within the next two weeks, then chemo. In addition to that chemical cocktail, I’ll be receiving treatment through the Tibetan Healing Center. I also bought a motorhome. Susie and I intend to see some of those national parks we’ve been enjoying in your Facebook photos. These will be short trips because I also plan to return to work soon…with a badass “Bond villain” scar on the side of my head.
Thank you guys for all of your support. My family has also been amazing and strong—not without times of fear and doubt, but nothing we can’t handle.
I look forward to seeing you back on Fox 5 News soon.
Loren
P.S. Here are photos of my brain before and after the surgery. Pretty cool, huh?
[Above: Before Surgery/Below: After Surgery]
The Nancarrow Project 
I love you. You’ve made my life richer, happier, and fuller. I nominate you president of the Good Sam Club.
Dear Loren, Anyone who could teach me to coax a stubborn skunk out of our garage after several days of residence is a miracle worker in my book. You have the right attitude to begin this battle. May your treatments go smoothly and quickly and then enjoy every moment of your travels. Greg and I took a two week road trip during my breast cancer battle and it did me a world of good. It was on that trip that I discovered my most sacred and peaceful spot on earth in Monument Valley. I highly recommend it! Sending healing vibes your way.
Loren, I’m so sorry. I faced a similar situation 15 yrs ago. Still here! Follow your instincts. Love up on that family of yours and pursue what and who you love. I’ve been thinking of you and hoping for the best.
If there is one person in this world that can beat this it’s YOU. You have the positive attitude and mental strength that is unbeatable. BE in the moment and LAUGH often and embrace the journey. Much Aloha…Kristi Cotton
Loren, if anyone can beat this thing it will be you and your optimism.
Loren, I continue to be glad to see you haven’t changed a bit. Please remember to let me know if there’s anything I can do while you’re beating this blob’s butt!!! You didn’t expect the ‘a’ word out of me, did you?..haha.
I have exactly what info I want. Check, please. Wait, it’s free? Awesome!
The doctors gave my uncle 1 year to live, he lived 23 more! I have known more than one person who beat the odds! Doctors don’t always know. Stay strong, stay positive, and you and your family savor every moment of every day! If you haven’t read the book “The Secret” do it, you’ll be glad you did! You are in our prayers, daily!-Mike and Brenda Russell
Loren, if my colleagues and I can be of any assistance, we’d be happy to treat you to the modalities we offer! Between Guided Imagery, Meditation, Reiki Medicine, Vibrational Medicine, Acupuncture, Massage, Hypnotherapy, and good old-fashioned psychotherapy, we’ve got you covered! Best, Sage (Healing Heart Center: 858-481-8810)
Thank you for sharing those images of before and after. Miracles appear everyday!! Keep the faith!!
Thanks for being specific!
Loren, My thoughts and prayers go out to you today and I will continue to pray for your full and rapid recovery. Be strong, you are an amazing person and San Diego needs you. Stay Classy!
Bring on the badass James Bond scar and deliver the news Loren! A few miles in the motorhome are good but we need to see you back in the big chair. My old New8 pal has always been a fierce competitor and I have tons of love and respect for you.
Prayer continues…but must say – truly amazing photos…nice to see “Blob” and that he has left for good!
Wonderful to read he didn’t take your gifts away — keep learning – healing from within – along with good body fuel and travel always help both mind and body to tolerate the miracles modern science can provide!
Enjoy the new ride!
You’re the type of guy that will beat this, Loren. Since you are looking beyond western medicine, there is another alternative that you may not be aware of. Seek out a treatment system called ‘The Gerson Therapy’. There is across the San Diego border a place called The Gerson Institute. I did some video documentary work for them in the nineties and I know many case studies in which they stalled and even reversed many different types of cancer and other physical anomalies. The treatments are fully holistic and natural. It couldn’t hurt…
Oh Loren. I can’t think of a day in my adult life when you weren’t part of it. I’m now approaching 51. THANK YOU for your SERVICE to our community!! Thank you for being a good example of a working man for my sons. Thank you for patiently explaining so many, many different topics to us. And for goodness sakes, thank you for making your experience open to us…it helps us. Hopefully you, too.
You are amazing! An unbelievable inspiration! Next nail appointment for me… Blue finger nails!
Stay with this guys, you’re helping a lot of people.
Loren, you are amazing my friend! Love you!
Lomein aka Lorraine.
Dearest Loren,
A friends wife had a brain tumor that looked like a big ice cream cone in the back of her brain. Chemo and radiation was quite the adventure. She kicked butt and is alive and well and loving life! You are surrounded by friends, family, and fans. We love you and I have you and your family in my prayers. Keep strong, keep positive. And get a big bottle of Nivea cream. It will help ur skin during radiation 😊
Gods speed and blessings….jan
Godspeed Lauren,
I believe you when you say you will beat this thing. I look forward to seeing you back in the chair and flashing that scar. Enjoy your travels!
Thanks for the update, Loren. You have thousands of fans and supporters here who are rooting for you. Even if you die tomorrow, you have lived a remarkable life that has inspired and enlighted many of us. But you’re not gonna die tomorrow. Folks in your same condition have beaten back the beast, and I’m betting you will be one of them. Courage, my friend. You’ve got plenty.
Loren, your are a man of grace, confidence and great presence. As a result love surrounds you. Love will bring you through this. Faith and vision will keep you focused. Prayers.
Woo Hoo! Now that you Nancarrows have a motorhome, you can camp out with us for the Rose Parade!!!! OPE is going blue for you. I’ll post pictures tomorrow! Love, Ms. O
Loren,
May God be by you and your families side right now. Unfortunately in the last five years I have taken care of anAunt who passed away from Lymphatic cancer, an Uncle passed away with Stomache cancer, my Father currently has Bladder cancer, my other Aunt is currently has Lung and Brain cancer and last but not least I current have Kidney cancer, so what I am trying to say I understand how you feel and to let you know to stay positive pray and fight, Fight your bit off and you WILL beat this.
Really would like to see the bad ass scar on Fox (ratings will soar for sure 🙂
Many blessings and prayers!
It is so important to have the Positive Attitude, Sense of Humor, and Determination you have!! You WILL beat this!! They tell you what most people go through BUT you are NOT most people!! You, along with Susie Fleming Nancarrow and the rest of the Nancarrow Clan have such Positive Outlooks!! We all know you Eat Organic, have the Best of Eastern and Western Medicine, and Love Life…You will defy the odds and the Doctors will take a note of What you did to pass on!! Enjoy your RV Trips, Keep the Music in Your Life, The Love, Sense of Humor, and Determination will keep you going for MANY more years!! You and the Family have such a LARGE support Group, here on Facebook and in Life!! The Cobalt Blue Crew is Here for You!! The BLOB Came to the Wrong Person!!!
Thank you for the photos and explanation. My best friend was told once that she had 3 months to live and she lived for 10 years longer than the prognosis. May God choose to keep you around longer than the doc said. We all are caring and praying for you and your family.
Peace, beauty and serenity wil be found in the Black Hills of South Dakota…..I hope you can visit them in your travels. I wish you love, send you prayers, and admire your attitude and courage. NEGU..(never ever give up)…..Of course you will beat this….you have an army of prayer warriors that are behind you all of the way 😉 Onward and upward!! ❤ from Yorba Linda CA 😉
Holy sniza! That was one ugly tumor. I much prefer the “after” image of your brain. Loren, you have been an inspiration to so many in the San Diego area for so long. Now you continue to inspire in a new way. I don’t know what your future holds, but I am so blown away by your spirit (and that of your family) and the legion of people you have pulling for you. I personally have been praying for you for weeks- before I even knew you had brain cancer. As it turns out you are friends with a woman in my Bible Study. You have strangers and friends praying for you, pulling for you and inspired by you. God hears those many prayers. I hate the expression, “God gives you what you can handle.” I believe God helps you handle what life gives you. Keep up the fight…and God bless you and your family.
Loren! I know you can beat this! My mother has had brain cancer since 1996 (17yrs)! She’s had 4 surgeries, 3 of them within the last 5 years and has gone through chemo, radiation and everything in between. Her recent surgery was last year and it was by far the hardest recovery with regaining movement and normalcy, but trust me she is such a fighter and you can do it too! Her doctors at UCLA are amazing. Keep your spirits high, live one day at a time and don’t forget to always believe you can beat this! Mind over matter my friend.. xx
Hi Loren-Cowboy-Nancarrow,
You don’t know me. But I know of you and your wife….the company I work for has worked for you and Susie in the past and I have seen you anchoring up on Neptune in Leucadia and on TV many times. I also have friends that personally know you and say you’re a “great guy”.
From what I know on Facebook, I love how you live life; your helpful antidotes.
Personally, I don’t know how spiritual I am – I try…eating right, doing Yoga, taking meditative walks on the beach, but I suppose if I had some crazy-ass cells swimming around in my head, I would tell them…”go party somewhere else”….that would be my prayer, and THAT IS MY PRAYER FOR YOU. You can’t hate them but hopefully you can round ’em up and keep ’em movin’ on!!
I really think you’re going to have a lot of time to share more wisdom with us. I can’t wait to fertilize my garden with the meat-soaked packing paper and bring you and the family some veggies.
You have an awesome attitude. Thank you for sharing with all the peeps; those who are close and those who you’ve just met.
My best, Ann

Dear Bonnie, scarf-maker from your cheerleader Marsha, here is what I have written and feel free to change any of this. Also if you would like to show Loren what body meditation is, of course feel free to do just that, otherwise if he shows interest or anyone on the site, I am happy to do that I hope you also got what Tesa wrote, feel free to pass that on.
Dear Loren, here is a very simple and clear explanation of body mediation. Your friend Bonnie known to you as Scarf Lady, has been doing body meditations with me for over a year and she wanted to share this work with you. If you would like to do a complimentary session it would be a pleasure. And if you do continue the cost is small. Looking at your page on Facebook, I can feel and see that you and your recent healing journey is a great gift to mankind, I see you as an ambassador to help us understand who we truly are and to bring that life more fully here. I do so appreciate you as does everyone else.
from Suzanne, a veteran in this lifetime of 5 years body meditation; Interesting question. I am going to answer this question in 3 parts. I call what I do body meditation. I ask them to go within and find his or her predominant physical sensation. Once this has been found and communicated to me I ask the person to keep his/her attention on the sensation until it changes. The predominant physical sensation may be an itch, a pain, an emotion, a feeling of expansion, relaxation – what ever draws ones attention. As we proceed through the session I ask the person to communicate to me when something changes. I ask him/her only to follow the energy as it moves about in the body and not manipulate it in any way. Instead of thinking about the predominant physical sensation we use the mind in a different way. The mind is used to focus on the sensation and to just pay attention and follow the energy as it changes. The masculine part of us is what focuses. As we pay attention without control the feminine part of us is free to receive whatever comes. I have always found that if I was willing to pay attention long enough to what I am feeling it will change. Generally sessions last about an hour.
First when one does body meditation the energy comes in and goes to the weakest
and tightness part of the body ( although it could be expansion instead) it is as of
we have poured even more water thru a hose and the hose is stretching and feels
tight or even hurts under this expansion. This is often a time of recovery, recovery
from many conditioned feelings in our body but also in our life. as we continue with body
meditations we go from recovery to transformation so that the hose can still feel tight or
uncomfortable but we begin to have new experiences new sensations, new understandings, and
we slowly become a new person. The subtle part of us has replaced the dense here on
earth. In other words heaven now walks the earth. We do not go off into bliss or ecstasy
but bliss and ecstasy has found us and we now have a new center of gravity and understanding and new
and deepening appreciation and connection with life. It is nameless. We are unencumbered action. we become connected to that deathless place within all of us. We never were separated after all.
one PREMISE IN IS ” The power of right action for ourselves is so that our
life may have heaven and we know it, opening to freedom by knowing truth, feeling truth, engaging truth
becoming truth, truth is becoming more life, friction free without suffering, without paying the price.

becoming truth (violet), truth is becoming more life, friction free without suffering, without paying the price
Over time body meditations may include meditations on appropriate colors or thoughts for breaking up frozen energies. By paying attention to what comes to our attention our bodies slowly become enlivened with living energy as old frozen ideas and parts of the body become fluid and we become more than we were before and can receive more than we knew and had before. Life becomes rich and even more intimate.
2. The idea behind this is that life or God or that larger part of us
is always trying to bring about the next best thing. Not only for us
but for all of life. I choose to use the term life rather than God
because I feel there is so much baggage around the term God – so many
different beliefs and ideas. I can not figure out with my finite mind
what is needed for my next level of growth and healing to take place.
But there is something that does know. When we pay attention and
focus our awareness, (our attention) on the predominant physical sensation without
control we are allowing life to bring about the next best thing. We stop trying to figure things out although knowing and insight does happen. In
this form of meditation we do not try to quiet the mind but to pay
attention to what it is in the body that wants our attention. Our body and minds become flooded with alive active energy yet still with a deepening energy and awareness. We do not still the mind to know bliss, bliss is our heightened awareness and our evolving intimacy with our body and life in and around us. slowly the subtle moves to the dense. Most of
us have not been taught to pay attention to the sensations in the body
and our body is desperate for our attention.
3. I used to think I knew a lot but since doing this I realize
how little I truly know. And knowing not believing or thinking is
what I want. Body meditation is a very simple process and my knowing increases. One pays
attention to the predominant physical sensation in the body. That
includes feelings mundane and sublime, both horrid and estatic, of all kinds, seeing colors or images evolving dream scapes of any kinds , and hearing both the voices of the so called devil, ordinary voices and wisdom voices. all without control. Do we dare? are does the “devil” need to be controlled.
words. The process is simple but not easy because the awareness is
placed in the body and just follows what is there. It brings up all
the parts of us that we have hidden. The nice part is that things are
brought up in a safe way. because we do not push, the process is always safe. My goal in this work is to provide an
environment where one may feel comfortable and safe to explore all
her predominant physical sensation. Once this has been found and
communicated to me I ask the person to keep his/her attention on the
sensation until it changes. The predominant physical sensation may be
an itch, a pain, an emotion, a feeling of expansion, relaxation – what

Many are at 4+ years and are still clear.
One mentioned 18 years of cancer-free.

Please don’t say “pretty cool, huh?” this is not cool. What is cool is that you are going to beat this. The “blob” is not a friend. It was a jerk who invaded..Yes, you are going to beat this. Prayers, love, and support to you, Susie, and your family.
Loren, I’m at least a year and a half ahead of you (seizures 5/31/11, brain surgery 7/5/11, followed by 6 weeks radiation/temodar and subsequent 12 months of temodar). I now own at least 10 sock caps! I’m back on a running streak. Started back a few days after surgery and my release from the hospital. My Grand Mal seizures ended 27 plus years of running every day. Oh well, my goal is another 27 years. Keep the faith, I stole one of my buddy’s (he went thru the same thing many years ago) books. It is a must read,” Anti cancer A NEW WAY OF LIFE”.
I love your attitude, you do have a battle ahead of you and I wish you the best.
I’m having another follow up MRI tomorrow :-).
Loren, you can get through this! I have a friend who had brain cancer and swears by raw juice… pulp and all. You sound like you are doing it right and I am sure you are getting all kinds of advice. I just know that combining the eastern and western methods do work. Take care of your body and feed it living food! Do you know of OHI, Optimum Health Institute in Lemon Grove. It’s all about wheat grass. I am thinking of you and will send good, positive healthy vibes your way! Heather Salter, San Diego Locations (just in case you didn’t know, just one of your many FB friends)
I am a local girl that went to grade school with your wife and that has seen you around my neighborhood for years, and even waited on you in a local resturant. You have been watched on the news by my family on different channels, at different times of day and on different subjects. I think of you as “my” news guy and always will. Thanks to you and best wishes for a speedee and complete recovery.
Wow! My dad is currently fighting Stage 4 colon cancer. Long story short “NO ONE FIGHTS ALONE!” You will beat this! I LOVE the FOX 5 family! Can’t wait to see you back at work! Prayers coming your way!
Love your positivity! That will carry you so far Loren! You will have my continued prayers! As well as your family! I love how your family has rallied around you! Suzie is showing the world how to ‘stand by your man’! Healing thoughts and prayers!!!
We’ve been fans of yours for years! You have the will and family support to beat this! Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Suzie!
We would love to show You and Suzie around our neighborhood, (Mammoth Lakes) this Summer. Lot’s of beautiful spots to park the RV and enjoy life at 8000ft!
Sam and Linda Nicolosi
Loren, You can beat this. Heck, your probably already working on a special cocktail version of your Christmas Tree extender that is safe for human consumption and will extend your life. Let me know if want to head out for a root beer.
Wow! That Blob was HUGE! So glad for you that your brain surgeon is so skilled! You are so strong & Suzie & your children. God be with you!
Dearest Loren; attitude is everything. My son beat leukemia with a great attitude. That is not to say that he (and the rest of us) did not have bad days. He also had support from unexpected people and places. Keep on keeping on and know that this city loves and supports your battle.
You have a great attitude about everything. I love your blogs. And I can’t wait to see your “Badass” villain scar 🙂 You are certainly deserving of all this outpouring of support and love. Keep smiling and we will send our energy and love to help.
Loren, I work with a man who had brain cancer, they performed surgery, he’s been thru it all, it cost him his left eye, and he’s still with us 8 years later, I have full faith in your inner power, your approach to everything from what I have come to know of you having been a faithful fan since forever is the best approach to such a battle. My prayers are with you.
Sadden by the news, but heartened by the love & support of your family, friends, & fans. Your positive attitude is a force to be reckon with, Loren. Going cobalt blue for you.
Hi Loren,
The docs words . . “to live”. Your schedule not theirs. So excited for you and the lovely Suzie to travel, hit that bucket list and then start a new list. This bites but aren’t you already amazed by how the truly important things become so very clear. The positive juju coming your way from so many is enough to kick the shit out of this. Holding you and your beautiful family close in my intentions for peace and healing.
Love you and Suzie,
Mo
You continue to amaze me my friend…”dis ting is outta here” with an attitude such as yours…
You’re an inspiration to us all! I want to share a website with you. I had family member who went here for three 3 weeks and they saved her life. It’s not for everyone but it worth looking into.
http://www.hippocratesinst.org/the-institute
We’re standing with you!
Wow, you are MUCH LOVED! I think I would turn a deaf ear to those guys giving length of years, since we all know that Jesus is the Great Healer. Do you have any idea how many days of our lives you have brightened, with your witty, caring, and compassionate way of presenting the news? I’ve always treasured your upbeat, cheerful attitude, and have often sought out the channel where you would be. What a shock it must have been to learn about the challenges you are now facing.

Loren, I am an aspiring RN (half way through nursing school) and a firm believer in Western Medicine. However, I am also very familiar with the Tibetan Healing Center, and I truly believe you are in good hands with Lobsang! He is a wonderful and caring human being, not to mention his wealth of knowledge and experience with combining modern Western medicine and ancient Tibetan medicine and healing practices. I have watched you in San Diego since my childhood and I intend for my children to grow up with you as well! Looking forward to seeing you back on the air!
