Hahaha, The pic I have of me in the hat isn’t cute – during some rotten chemo. But… I would. I sent a pic of me in the purple wig my daughter bought me for Christmas this year. It’s such a hoot! People have to grin when they see it. I don’t know if that part of this website is working anymore _ The Face of…???
The F* Cancer hat gets a bit of a different response!Love it!
Can you post us a picture of you in the hat?
Actually, having said that I’m not sure if attachments work here.
Rick????I’ve got the hat! Have worn it to work (cool people) and then forgotten and gone into the grocery store or what not and boy did people stare! I saw the video on a TV special and it was very upbeat and supportive of the under 30 cancer people. I’m not in that group, but hey, the hat is cool! – even if a bit unexpected in a 50+ rotund little lady!
The book is great and loads of fun. YOu can order one of the F*** Cancer hats through this site: http://www.jackiefarry.com/cancerhat/
by the way, Kris also has a site and blog: http://www.crazysexycancer.com/
Hi Kris,
Yup, I do it too. Although I’ve never had the hutzpah to admit it publicly…..Pancreatic and CC are both adenocarcinomas. And the AC’s = badguys!
Has anybody out there seen and read “Crazy Sexy Cancer Tips” by Kris Carr? Actually, it’s a film as well.
http://www.crazysexycancer.com/Slanted more toward women but she has a great attitude and it’s a uplifting light read after all the pubmed slogs we try to get through some days.

Devoncat, you know, I feel the same way about people with “easy” cancers, horrible as that is… I mean, how awful is it when you think snide thoughts about someone who had a lumpectomy for breast cancer?
But some people understand. An acquaintance of mine said, “Well, I had cancer, but it was one of the ‘good’ kinds (prostate). I was never bad-sick, like you.”
And I do know someone with pancreatic cancer who is doing reasonably well for the moment.
I hope it does work. I read the article and although I really want it to work for us, I want it even more I think for the pancreatic cancer sufferers. I dont know if anyone else plays the “cancer game” like when someone says I had x cancer, and then you think come back and talk when you get a “real” one ( I know that is TERRIBLE, it is just jealousy) or then when someone says I have y cancer, you think I really do have it good. I always think I have it good when I hear about pancreatic cancer. We have some hope, but they really have none and I cannot imagine living without hope. So I from the bottom of my heart wish that this is truly an advice and offers all of us (including those pancreatic sufferers) real hope.
I missed this when the article was first published a few weeks ago. Perhaps a new chemo with some promise. Others here may know more but a search didn’t turn it up in any posts I could find.
