Product Description
From Fran Drescher, here's the funny and empowering New York Times bestseller about taking charge of health problems and finding humor in the face of adversity. Part inspirational cancer-survival story, part memoir-as-a-laugh-riot, CANCER SCHMANCER picks up where Fran's last book, Enter Whining, left off. After the publication of that book, Fran's life launched into a downward spiral. She separated from a long and complicated relationship, her TV series started to slip in the ratings, and the health of her beloved dog Chester was failing fast. Then came the mysterious symptoms no doctor could explain. With her trademark sense of humor, Fran tells of her long search for answers and the cancer diagnosis that she ultimately beat. But not before a gold mine of insights were revealed to her about the importance of taking charge of your own health and recognizing what's most important in life.

 Fran Drescher - Cancer Shmancer December 21, 2008
John K. Elkins
Although not Shakespeare, the book was very informative & entertaining. For anyone, such as myself, who has been through this horrible ordeal, it is highly recommended reading. You may even learn a thing or two from the wisdom & experience of Francine Joy...

Diane R. Tubbs (Fairview, Tx USA)
I read this book 4years ago while fighting Neck & Head Cancer. It was very refreshing from the serious books and made we realize we can do something about what is dealt us. I bought this book as a gift for a friend who was just starting Chemo for Breast Cancer and she absolutely loved it as well. Cancer Schmancer

Hey, my name is Carina Henzel, I am 23 and I teach English in Brazil. I bought and read Cancer Schmancer in 2002. As I loved it so much, I decided to get some my students to read it this year. So I ordered eight books from amazon.com and got them delivered quickly and in fine state.
I totally recommend the book. It's great, informative and fun. It makes you laugh, cry and fall in love with the person Fran Drescher is. Amazing author, amazing text. I honestly loved it and my students are enjoying it a lot. Two thumbs up!

Manifesting (The Az desert)
I had just been diagnosed with endometrial cancer when a friend mentioned that Fran Drescher had a book out about her experience. I'm not a 'celebrity' follower at all but i just wanted to hear a non-medical run through of what to expect. Which was very much in line with what she wrote...the frustration of not being heard when you know something isn't right and trying to find someone who listens and checks it all out just to make sure..and when you finally get the diagnosis....going through what you have to deal with in your own head and everyone elses...she was up front and open about the whole process and very fortunate that it hadn't spread....and that she had the money for good insurance and a good support system....so many in this country don't.
GOOD GOOD BOOK!! April 30, 2007
