Fran Rides the Press Train!

Dolls,

Guess what?! Cancer Schmancer now has a fabulous text-to-give program, so grab your cell and donate $5 by texting FRAN to 85944.  Remember, early detection = survival so let no woman go unscreened!

Also, on November 10th I'll be launching the Fran Brand on the Home Shopping Network; my natural, eco-friendly skin care line.  We have to go back to glass, baby, and get away from the plastic!  What's even more exciting is that 5% of proceeds will be donated to Cancer Schmancer!

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

My dear friends,
Did you know this year alone, an estimated 192,000 women will develop a new case of breast cancer? And this is just in the United States! Today more than ever, we must work together to end late stage diagnosis of cancer through prevention and early detection. 
As we recognize October as Breast Cancer Awareness month, let us make sure we’re doing everything we can to not only ensure our ta-ta’s are healthy, but our whole bodies! Remember, if you are not feeling right, go see your doctor right away.

Going to the Doctor...

My friends,

Is there a right way and a wrong way to go to the doctor? Of course there is! When we the patient or as I prefer to call us "medical consumers" go to the doctor we must be as prepared, alert and in control of ourselves as if we were interviewing for that prized corporate position that 100 guys want and only one is going to get.

Sure you don't feel well, naturally you're scared but just as the soldier on the frontline battlefields cannot indulge those feelings, neither can you.
