My goal for these next few years, for the next forever, is to try and keep positive things around me. If somebody is coming at me with negative stuff, just back away from me.

Juicing has helped me bring my pressure down. Organic natural foods, too.

I just want to be able to get onstage and move and move around.

Music is my happiness, my joy, and when my body wasn't right I couldn't get into my music without being healed, without being healthy.

I'm going to dress a little different. Those frilly dresses I used to wear on stage, that was the old me.

Not only do I say, get up and get out, I tell the cancer to get up and get out. And if you don't get up and get out, I'm going to shout you out. And I get to shout.

My friend Megan Holken is a nutritionist. I have spent some time at her home upstate in Sharon Springs, where she told me how to eat right and cook right.
