Actor Blair Milan has died of a rare blood cancer. Blair the son of TV food personality Lyndey Milan contracted Acute Myloid Leukemia or AML. Apparently the actor did not know he had the cancer until it was too late. Blair went to the doctor feeling ill and a blood test revealed the cancer. As Blair was still a young man, at just 29 years old, his immune system would have been fighting this type of cancer simply making him feel ill. Undiagnosed this type of cancer can kill a person very quickly and Blair died within a week of diagnosis on April 17. Older patients with the same disease will show symptoms earlier.
Blair became known for his work on Channel nine's GO! channel. He had also just completed filming for a new show for the SBS with his mother that is a food tour of Greece which will air later this year.
Family and friends were with Blair when he died.
