Dear Friend, All I've got to say is, to hell with cancer! This book's about schmancer!...laughing at the crazy things life offers even when it's biting you on the ass. Here I'll be telling it like it was-so you won't have to go through what I did. After The Nanny ended, I divorced my husband and began dating. I wanted to feel free as a bird, but instead was weighed down by troubling symptoms...and so began my two-year, eleven-doctor odyssey in search of a diagnosis and cure. Every doctor I saw held a different view. More than one told me I had a pre-menopausal condition common in middle-aged women (middle-What?). Finally, after insisting on more tests-and just as I was getting serious with a man sixteen years my junior (He's very mature!)-I was told I had cancer. My attitude saved my life. So here it is: the laughter, the sorrow, the happiness, and the horror. Everything that I learned the hard way and then some. Luv, Fran P.S. Doctors are fallible, so open a mouth!
