Marilu Henner Finds Miracle Cure For Husband's Cancer - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Brian Damage · 01-17-2008, 09:50 PM

Marilu Henner saved her sex life with her new husband after ignoring crude medical advice offered as a cure for bladder cancer. The Taxi star had only just started dating Michael Brown four years ago when he was diagnosed with lung and bladder cancer, and she took him on a tour of doctors in a bid to get the right help.

She says, "I took him all over the country, to about nine doctors because I sort of do the best of east and west medicine, integrated medicine."

But the actress admits the new couple weren't always thrilled with what the experts suggested.

She adds, "We hit some crackpots along the way... One of the doctors... immediately wanted to do surgery. He said, 'We're gonna take it out, we're gonna run this tube through your penis and if you two want to have sex you just have to pump it up six times."

Henner admits the couple ran out of the consultation, and instead used natural cures and dietary methods to beat the disease.

She explains, "I changed his diet and, as a result, we saved everything; Michael still has everything intact (and) he's in remission now. The mentality in this country is to cut something out and then get back to normal... I keep saying, 'Maybe normal needs to be looked at.'"

Sorry to laugh - that's great news if he really is in remission, but I can't help to laugh and feel a bit sorry for the poor guy. Here's his wife going on to the media about running a tube up his penis.....

"HEY WORLD! GUESS WHAT? ........"

Even I wince when I think about it.

Has anyone else ever read Marilu's memoir By All Means Keep on Moving? She wasn't exactly shy there about recalling her, ahem, experiences.

What does she say in the book?

Well, it's an autobiography, and she tells about her family life, and of course her acting career. She goes into a LOT of detail about her sexual experiences - including those with Taxi co-stars Judd Hirsch and Tony Danza. A bit too much information for my taste, but I think Taxi fans would enjoy it.

Ya know, maybe it's just me but I'm just so tired of her grabbing us by the throat and lecturing us about her personal choices in her diet. Every appearance I've seen her in that's all she talks about, and she isn't subtle either. One day I saw her on some morning talk show and at 9am or something she's calling milk "cow snot" and denouncing anyone who's drinking milk. I mean, come on! I know she has a lot invested in that in the form of books and videos and products and I just can't help but think this is just another advertisement for those choices, which of course, leads to those products. She just comes on a little too strong and a little too annoyingly radical for me.

^ I understand what you mean. Her book isn't exactly subtle, either. I don't have a problem with her diet choices - but she shouldn't tell others how to eat. What may be good for her may be bad for someone else - and vice versa. Just my 2 cents...

bingbangbaby · 01-20-2008, 06:42 PM

Well exactly...I don't even like milk but I'll be darned if I'm going to have my 7 year old nephew who loves milk hear something like that. And milk was just one thing...she was tearing up all kinds of foods that are staples in most people's diets. It's fine, whatever, and it probably is better for you, but I just don't like her methods.
