Kris,
Thank you for:
Sharing your story with brutal honesty
Spreading your wisdom
Bringing inspiration to so many
Lifting spirits by giving strength love and hope
Helping us grow, spiratully, emotionally and physically
letting us inside to see the real you
Teaching us how to love our body, mind, inner spirit and soul.
I could go on and on, but it your turn now.....leave your gratitude for Kris...

She pretty much saved my sanity, my mind, my heart, my soul, me. She made me feel so much less alone, and SANE because somebody finally came along thinking/acting/dealing like I was. She came into my life at one of my darkest times and has been there every step of the way as I found the light. I am eternally grateful to have her in any realm of my life.

I would like to say that Kris has made my life infinitley better by just being, well by just being Kris. She is so real and down to earth and honest about it all! She tells it like it is and to me thats so important. When i read what Kris writes on her blog and see her on tv and watch the DVD, somehow it resonates with me, just how small this world is and how she brought together a group of people that in my wildest dreams i would have never met without Kris. (sorry for runon sentence)...So, Kris my friend and i am thankful i can call you my friend.....Just thanks! You've made it happen my friend!!! I love you!

When I first heard about crazysexy canser my hubby saw Kris on tv.. I think he got a crush on her cuz he kept telling me how cool she was and that I should read her book....flash forward to the library shelf, could it be her???
My life changed forever, for better, she saved my life and I am forever and always in her debt.
I just love her so much it fills up my heart and squeezes out the tears...

I first saw Kris on the news and then I watched crazysexy cancer with my husband one night in October. I think he has a crush too, because he even bought her book & tells everyone how great she is. I think Kris has changed so many of our lives for the better, and add on so many more now with this forum.

I first saw Kris in a TV show (don't remember which) and her words "THIS CANSER IS NOT KILLING ME, IT IS MAKING ME LIVE A BETTER LIFE" (or something similar, yeah, I think I have a little chemobrain) flip a switch on me in a way that changed all my concepts about being ill or being a victim of c. So, BIG THANK YOU, KRIS.

I am from a big family......now, I have an even bigger family.
I am humbled and feel truly blessed to have this family.
Thanks Kris doesn't seem like enough. If I could say it how I feel it, it would sound like flowers and stars
and smiles and sweet aromas
and hugs and love and happiness

all things bright and beautiful ....xoxoxo

When I saw kris the first time Crazy, Sexy, Cancer aired, I was so moved at what she was doing for us. Sharing her story and finding out what makes us optimally healthy - mind, body and soul. I don't have cancer, so when I saw it, I said "Why wait until I do have it to become the healthiest I can be?!". I love Kris's story, her spirit, sense of humor, her sass, her passion for healthy living and the fact that she shares all of that with us!

Thanks and Love ya Kris (but you knew that)!

Health and Happiness!

I have 3 daughters, two are just younger than Kris and one is a tad older. Just trying to give you a perspective from an "old" lady :-)

Kris is like a breath of fresh air. Kris is like springtime. Kris gives me HOPE. Kris is a fighter for what she believes in and is so refreshing in a world that seems to be spiraling downward. Kris (and Brian too) are tireless in their mission to bring a healthy, happy, safe living environment to all. Kris is a rock star.

Her documentary made me laugh til my belly hurt and cry til my heart hurt.

I have her book and have read it 3 times.

I wish it was Kris running for president. She would definitely have my vote :-)

Kris is beautiful person inside and out. I saw her documentary approximately 1 month after my diagnosis and surgery. It (or she) changed my life. I know that sounds so cliche, but it's so damn true! My entire outlook on life and the whole idea of having cancer changed 360 degrees. Also, after reading her book it just multiplied those positive thoughts. Small tips like "rid yourself of emotional vampires" still makes an impact in my life. NO MORE emotional vampires, I will not tolerate any longer.

Thanks is not enough! I will be forever grateful.

I am also very grateful. I truly believe that I wouldn't have had the motivation to treat my body better without seeing Crazy Sexy Cancer. I always ate organic when able, but never looked as food as a healing agent and figured anyone who did was loopy. I regret ever feeling that way. As soon as I saw CSC I emailed my MIL to watch it on it's next showing, as she treats cancer patients for a living and is very much into natural and organic things. I called my family members to tell them, too, and I had ordered the book online within an hour after seeing the documentary.

Following that were five more books, then more and more and more.

Maybe it's cheesy, I'm not religious at all and never believed in anything or felt spiritual connections with anything at all aside from my Grandma. I think believing in Kris is probably the best thing that's happened to me, I had hope - and that's something I never had.

For that I am truly grateful.

Beyond that, I cannot begin to express my appreciation for this website. I can click every profile and find every single person to be so beautiful, I can pick a random one and know that I like them immediately. I feel like this is a home away from home, and in my case - it's a home, period. I find I can be open and not judged, I can give love and receive love. I can stand on my soapbox and cry or I can set it on fire and squeal with joy and neither one of those behaviors will be misjudged - they are instead related to.

I am just as grateful for Kris as I am for every friend I make here. Whether I just met you or knew you from the blogger, I am so happy to have found you (all) and I go to bed happy knowing I will wake up and still have friends around (some of mine split when I got sick).

Gosh, I'm all gushy and gross.

I LOVE YOU MAN!
