A visit to her doctor confirmed her â€œliver looked like Swiss cheese,â€ covered with cancerous tumors. She entered trench warfare (wearing cowboy boots into the MRI machine, no less), vowing, â€œCancer needed a makeover and I was just the gal to do it!â€ She began writing and filming her journey, documenting her interactions with friends, doctors, alternative â€œquacks,â€ blind dates, and other women with cancerâ€”sadly a growing group.
