I'd like to thank you, Melissa!!! I am 39 yrs old and I'm also a breast cancer survivor, 2 operations, 8 chemos, 36 radiations....your example gave me the strength to move on, whatever happened!!!
i am a fan, i am also the 44 year old woman with a blond main of hair, i am now ellen cohen breast cancer survivor, i found my cancer myslef like ms etheridge, and i just knew it was different, ive had 19 chemo both ca treatment and preventative treatment, 2operations , just approaching radiation in 2 weeks, melissa is one brave courageous lady, thankyou for your example, and your perserverance, your high standard is unmatched.
I have sooooooooooooo much respect for this wonderfuuuuuuuuuuul singer and she's my great inspiration. Keep on living and singing Melissa. I will named newborn daughter after you. Great human being and beautiful too.
keep running lisa, you WILL make it! It's tough going and easy to give up on but life is precious and worth fighting for.
I watched this video when I was going through chemo and was amazed at Melissa's energy, I was totaly drained of energy and was quite envious but now it's over I look forward to each new day and thank God I have another chance at life.
Good luck to all who have to go through this ...........stick with it!!
Melissa is the greatest!! she gives strength to so many and hope to all. SHE ROCKS and she is so beautiful inside and out. I am not a lesbian but she is absolutely the greatest!
I am a fan, and will always be a fan. You are an ispiration and your album "A Road Less Traveled" proved you travel a journey that you alone can imagine..rough, bumy but sweet when you see you have endured the downs. keep Singing...Rock on Melissa
Melissa You are my inspiration!!! No, I didn't hold back my tears, I let them flow. I just hope I can say that I am a breast cancer survivor too. Thank you for this clip Marnie, I watch it at least once a day xx
Such an exercise in camouflage. Amazing story, amazing person (still so beautiful without hair) -- but annoying and disappointing that nobody even mentioned Tammy -- I'm sure I've seen interviews where ME was saying that she wouldn't have got through chemo without Tammy, you know? and the bit where they were all "yeah, men and women, young and old all cheering" -- what about straight and gay? Obviously I can see why it had to be that way, but it's disappointing that you still have to...
This is comforting =) I used to view her as just another singer, but now I have a new percept. of her =) I hate to say it but with her bald head she looks like dominic purcell lol

Disappointing that Tammy Lynn Micheals never even got MENTIONED though. She's a huge part of Melissa Etheridge's life!

Excellent point. And she's in at least three of the still images used, you'd think they'd at least say who she is.
