![]() ![]() Although Drescher sometimes lapses into therapy-speak, tracing everything back to childhood, her one-liners can be priceless. Yet it is her storytelling skills and humor that make this uncomplicated book a good read. Consistently frank about her emotional ups and downs, Drescher addresses important quality-of-life issues such as fatigue and sex. She also devotes a chapter to the loss of her beloved dog, Chester Drescher. She then depicts the hysterectomy that followed as well as her recovery, focusing mostly on the support she received from her friends and family and her first post-divorce boyfriend, who is 16 years her junior. In the book-which serves as an unexpected follow-up to her 1995 memoir, Enter Whining-the actress describes living with symptoms for more than two years while shuttling from doctor to doctor without a diagnosis. Drescher, most famous for her loud, nasal voice and her role on the 1990s TV series The Nanny, advises readers to "open a mouth" when dealing with their doctors in this down-to-earth account of her experience with uterine cancer. ![]()
