I first saw Kris in her movie when it aired on TLC...I tivo-ed it and re-watched it many times, bought her book & made it my Bible!

The most important change she has helped me make in my life is my attitude. With her help and the help of everyone on CSL I have switched from an outlook of fear to one of squeezing the most out of every day and just loving all I can! This has made all the difference in my life....I am so grateful to Kris for blazing this trail of living an incrediblelife with canSer!!!

I watched her documentary on TLC when it first aired. I admit I was a little skeptical but then I found this site and feel the love. I feel so much less alone in my journey when I am here. I now have both her books and reread them regularly.

As for the changes in my life, gosh! Thanks to Kris and all of the groovy souls here on CSL I've totally changed the way I eat. I used to be a pizza ordering, dr. pepper swilling, candybar loving, and McDonalds drive-thru kind of dude. People here remember those days, I used to comment regularly about ordering pizza. I've adopted the raw food lifestyle and have dropped 32 freakin' pounds! LOL Now if they'd make a farmers market delivery, I'd be so very happy!

Further, I feel more empowered now as an individual, and finally feel like i'm finding my voice again.

Okay, i'm off to make my morning green smoothie now!

Chris's documentary and book changed my outlook and my husband's outlook on cancer tx. Instead of being destined to only the 3 biggies (surgery, radiation and chemo) I learned that there are so many other ways that I can fight this disease and have a sense of serenity. Peace and serenity is what it is really all about anyway, right gang?

I was in the waiting room to see the surgeon about the biopsy he was going to do on one of my lymph nodes, (before my diagnosis), and I saw a woman reading Kris's book. The title was intriguing, so I came home and did a google search for the words "crazy, sexy, and cancer". Kris's website came up, of course, and I was instantly hooked. Got the book and the DVD. I think the most important thing that I've gotten from Kris's message is that it's ok to be upbeat and positive, even when others think you should be anything else. She's my heroine- like the Wonder Woman of Cosmic Contentment. :)

I was on my way into Boston after being dx with a recurrent sinus sarcoma and in a really bad place mentally (overwhelmed and scared is an understatement). My husband and I would meet at a bookstore so he could come with me to my appts. I ran in to use the bathroom and by chance glanced at the "cancer" section on the books. I saw Kris's book as the color and title caught my eye. I didn't even pick it up...I was too scared to read anything about canser. A few days later I googled the title and the website popped up. I was hooked. I had the hubby buy me the book while I was in the hospital for my "c" surgery. The changes I have made in my life because of the book and this site have been big for me! I will admit that I'm not 80/20 raw, but I have introduced much more raw into my life and eat raw foods everyday. I switched my body lotion for dry brushing and virgin, unrefined organic coconut oil (my skin is sooo soft!!) I was already into pilates and yoga but have since added reiki and massage therapy. I'm still very interested in diet and healthy foods that I read about here and I'm slowing making changes. (no more red meat). Kris has created the CSL community and it's amazing ;-)

MY Hubby was home and he had watched oprah and tivoed this show for me. He said she was an activist for cancer and I would love it because of my line of work. I pooh poohed and waited and my God once I watched it It changed my life. I can honestly say I have the papers to prove it that without Kris Carr in my life I would be dead. This lifestyle cured my cancer, increased the quality of my life and gave me power over a disease that causes everyone to ask themselves some very difficult questions. I am so blessed to have her as a friend and to love her for just being her. The minute I finished oprah I ran out and got the book and as soon as the dvd came out I got that.. I read every book in the back of her book investigated every resource for my people in the mission and became a die hard csc bloggler.. long before there was csl. We are so blessed. SO Kris.. you know I this all ready but if I counted the ways you have changed my life.. it would be enormous I have gushed at you for too long. But the question was asked and I will never miss a moment to tell that story. Each day I give out at least one set of the dvd and movie to my clients and I also buy juicers and get folks eating right so they can take control of thier disease. SO thanks.. for giving me the minute to say it all. Hugs Callie
