Cancer Schmancer - Paperback

by Fran Drescher (Author)

A funny and empowering New York Times bestseller from TV and film star Fran Drescher about taking charge of her health and finding humor in the face of adversity.

Part inspirational cancer-survival story, part memoir-as-a-laughriot, 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.
