Actress and photographer Kris Carr thought she had a hangover, but
a Jivamukti yoga class didn't provide its usual kick-ass cure. A
visit to her doctor confirmed her "liver looked like Swiss cheese,"
covered with cancerous tumors. She entered trench warfare (wearing
cowboy boots into the MRI machine, no less), vowing, "Cancer needed
a makeover and I was just the gal to do it!" She began writing and
filming her journey, documenting her interactions with friends,
doctors, alternative "quacks," blind dates, and other women with
cancer--sadly a growing group. These include hip, young women such
as illustrator-author Marisa Acocella Marchetto "(Cancer Vixen),
Glamour" writer-editor Erin Zammett "(My So-Called Normal Life),"
MTV personality Diem Brown "("Real World/Road Rules Challenge),""
model Sharon Blynn (founder, Bald Is Beautiful), and music manager
Jackie Farry, among others. The Learning Channel broadcast the
premiere of Carr's unforgettable documentary, Crazy Sexy Cancer on
August 29, 2007.
CRAZY SEXY CANCER TIPS gathers the lessons learned and advice
offered from Carr's own journey, as well as the experiences of her
cancer posse. Full-color photos accompany personal stories and
candid revelations in this scrapbook of advice, warnings, and
resources for the cancer patient. Chapters cover your changing
social life, dating, sex, and appearance; essential health tips on
how to boost your immune system; recipes; medical and holistic
resources; and information on young survivor support groups. The
resulting book is a warm, yet informative tool for any woman newly
diagnosed with the disease and for those who love them.
