 Cancer one day at a time May 3, 2008
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Chosen for our annual Women's Film Festival 2008 this was an uplifting view of one woman's fight against her cancer. It also interviews other young women who are dealing with the disease. It is brave and sad, and hopeful.

In this fun little documentary, actress/director Kris Carr is diagnosed with a rare form of cancer that infects her lungs and liver. The cancer is so rare (not to mention hard to pronounce) that every treatment offered to her is experimental. Fortunately, the cancer does not metastasize quickly. Seizing the opportunity, she becomes her own "health guru" and starts to go on a journey of alternative medicine. The reason I was attracted to this is because it features briefly one of the people who I've been studying, a microbiologist by the name of Dr. Robert Young. His theories on "the new biology" are explained in the books that he writes. I also, as a side note, recommend that, if you are interested, to read books like "The pH Miracle." Or look up Dr. Alex Guerrero or Dr. Christopher Vasey. But I'm getting off the subject. I recommend this, but because of the language and content involved, this is NOT a family-friendly movie. Also, something that I found a bit irritating was that it came in a eco-friendly box. Now, I'm all about recycling and closing down the landfills and not polluting and all, but it was something I wasn't really expecting and it kind of made it hard to get the DVD out of the case without...breaking it. I don't know, maybe others have had better luck than I. I was struggling for 2 minutes trying to get the thing out without snapping it in two. Well, that's it. Until next time, Will out. God bless.

I saw this on TLC, and it's a beyond charming look at what would normally be a private struggle with cancer.
Kris Carr is an amazing inspirational young lady and she inspired me so much to live my days to a much more full extent!
She has an open heart that she is sharing with the world.
I have purchased a few extra copies for friends now as I don't want to give up my own.
I'm not sure why her name is not FIRST on her DVD (lists Rodney Yee who stars in an extras chapter)!
Fantastic movie! April 3, 2008

I think this documentary is fantastic. This film does a wonderful job of documenting Kris Carr's journey through varying emotions dealing with cancer. I think that's one of the greatest attributes of this film, it shows the good and the bad, over a spectrum of issues related to finding out you have cancer. To even the question of "who wants to date a cancer chick?" Very well done, and entertaining. A great film for anyone dealing with cancer, or interested in alternative healing.
Bravo!

Every time I see it I pick up another gem. This documentary isn't about cancer, it's about wellness, about living. We ALL need to step back and examine how we individually and collectively are living our lives. And how that is impacting the health of our species. Kris had an in-your-face wake up call. What is going to take for YOU to start truly taking care of yourself? I recommend starting with this DVD! Absolutely inspiring!
