À propos de cet audio
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. And diligence that pays off. Here I'll be telling it like it was - and is - so you won't have to go through what I did.
Who knew when I was a chubby kid from Queens what a roller coaster my life was going to be! After The Nanny ended, I divorced my husband, started living on my own, and began dating for the first time since high school. 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.
Don't let what happened to me happen to you. 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, I proved that my body was telling the truth - something was terribly wrong. Doctors are fallible, so open your mouth! Thank God I did, because my attitude saved my life.
Just as I was getting serious with a man 16 years my junior (What's the matter? He's very mature!) my worst fears were confirmed. I was told I had cancer and would need a radical hysterectomy. Was I going to die? Would I require radiation? How much does a uterus weigh? Maybe I wouldn't need that diet after all...
What I learned about myself, the depth of my relationships, and cancer - tests, treatment, recovery, and follow-up - could fill a book. So here it is. All of it: the laughter, the sorrow, the happiness and the horror. Everything that I learned the hard way and then some.
So pour yourself a cup of tea, put your feet up, and let's dish...
All my love,

Wow! My first audible book experience. I made the right choice!
I have always been a big fan of the author. This book wasn’t just informative, it was highly entertaining. I loved her honesty, humour, and her humility. I would recommend this book to anyone whether or not they have dealt with cancer. I hope that she does a memoir that would pick up from where this book left off.
I found this book inspiring, informative and highly entertaining. I was sad when it was over. Fran’s account of her cancer experience, the break up of her marriage and the loss of her beloved companion “Chester” was heartbreaking but at the same time hopeful. One lesson she shared in the book is that one cannot have a future if you spend your present looking back at the losses of your past. Sage advice! I feel blessed for having the opportunity to listen to this book. It was an eye opening experience to have an inside account of what courage, persistence and determination it takes to fight and win the battle of cancer and to become a better version of one’s self rather than a bitter one. I applaud her for sharing such a personal experience. Well done!

Recommend to all fans of "The Nanny".
An insightful look into the life of "The Nanny" creator and star Fran Drescher. Read by Fran herself, surprisingly beautifully, I might add.
