Book Description:
Part inspirational cancer-survival story, part memoir-as-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 her beloved dog Chester Drescher's health was in major decline. Then came the mysterious symptoms no doctor could adequately explain. With her trademark humor, Fran tells of her indefatigable search for answers and the cancer diagnosis that she ultimately beat. But not before a gold mine of humorous insights were revealed to her about what really matters most in life.

Having just lost my brother to cancer this week, Fran made me aware of how difficult the struggle is in this book. Who doesn't love Fran Drescher and to see her as a normal person dealing with a life threatening event makes me feel closer to her. She doesn't pull any punches in this book. It's down to earth.

Greatly moving, inspiring and even funny read about Fran Drescher's battle with cancer, the end of her marriage and her tv show, the Nanny. You will laugh and cry! An excellent and fast paced book!

What wonderful book! If you have ever read her earlier book, Enter Whining, you will be amazed at how much she has matured since then.
