Cancer Schmancer Movement

Every once in awhile while flipping through television channels, I come across something of substance. 

I didn't know this, but Fran Drescher (tv show "The Nanny") is a uterine cancer survivor.  She has a very informative website called "Cancer Schmancer Movement".

                   http://www.cancerschmancer.org

(from website)......... she has launched the Cancer Schmancer Movement, a non-profit organization dedicated to ensuring that all women's cancers be diagnosed while in STAGE 1, when it's most curable. Fran's vision is to galvanize women into one collective voice to alert our elected officials that our vote means more than that of the most powerful corporate lobbyist.

She includes a "Cheat Sheet for Women's Cancer", info on "Johanna's Law",  early warning signs, frequently asked questions, different screening tests, her own blog, etc.

I'm not done reading everything yet, but I thought it was important enough to pass along.

  1. I think she is courageous, and will help to save other women's lives' by her efforts concerning early detection of cancer.     mark
