If you are looking for a life changing positive Cancer recovery, you will not find it here. I rather read Lance Armstrong’s mother’s book about him and his cancer recovery.
Fran is very weak with this book, and you can see since she’s shacked up with her new man, how she changed her tale from Enter Whining, when she loved her spouse and ranted on about positive things to saying we weren’t independent people and not give the real reasons why they broke up. Instead, here she complains about her privledged life, doesn’t go into detail unless it was about her younger man (who we may possibly care less of) and not enough of about real emotions. I blame fran and not her doctors for a diagnosis, because she never stuck with the doctors and plotting it was fantastic to just never go back to them since they didn’t tell her what she sought after to hear and went to all of her friends’ hollywood celebrity doctors and not a real down to earth doctor. She comes out of her experience a overly negative person when she should have not went back and kept asking for more tests, may possibly have worked things out with her spouse. Instead, we hear more and more tales about things going back to her childhood ,sex with her younger man, and her trying to be hip to make a show with mtv. Fran, you are not young anymore, and stop blaming others and your childhood for your mistakes. She hasn’t dealt with her rape come forth all the way since she blames her marriage for failing for it and other things. I see this book as a negative downfall because Fran blames others and not herself for her actions, and the reason for not being determined to going back to the doctor when her body was telling her something was incorrect. If you want an uplifting tale, find Linda Armstrong-Kelly’s book about her and Lance, other wise stay away from this book to buy, rent from your local library.

I just briefly scanned through the book. I have to say I disagree with Fran that patients need to do their own research. It seems she is protecting the Doctors that should have known what diagnostic testing to do.
It seems there is no accountablity in the medical profession when physicans are not knowing what diagnostic test to perform.
I wonder if she pursued more than just a book.

Even as the in rank Ms. Drescher gives on her symptoms and warning signs are eye-openers, the book itself is a disappointing waste of paper. Her whining and pettiness has turned what was once a devoted fan of hers to someone who is so glad I don’t have to live with someone so selfish and self-absorbed in my life. Wish I may possibly get my money back from Ms. Drescher, no wonder she’s not on TV anymore.

From the back cover, a letter from Drescher to the readers, I expected a amusing tale about a harrowing experience, but all I got was a juvenille tale of an immature woman. She says that it took eight doctors to diagnose her cancer, but she doesn’t even seem thankful for the one who finally did. She spoke kindly of her nurses, but never thanked them. My mother being a nurse, I was offended that she didn’t even express her thanks towards a nurse who gave her an enema every day! On the back cover Drescher says “my attitude saved my life” but her attitude was pretty [cruddy] from where I stand. I know that cancer is upsetting and you have a aptly to whine and complain. I don’t know how anyone can see this book as uplifting.

I have to admit I didn’t care much for this book. So often, it’s simpler to sit nearly and weep about problems than to do something about them.
Fran gets the thought across that women need to be more aggressive with their treatment, but it’s all hindsight. Instead of going to parties and whining for two years, Fran should’ve hit the books and armed herself with research. I guess I was hoping to read a tale about that kind of strength and intelligence. It’s sad to see that Gilda Radner went through near the same situation ten years ago, and we haven’t learned anything.
There was an attempt at humor, but the fact I knew she had cancer that wasn’t being treated overshadowed the jokes. Additionally, I may possibly’ve done without the details of an immoral lifestyle and bowel movement changes.
