“Hearing the oncologist say I had cancer was like an out-of-body experience…
I had left the room. Elvis had left the building…I thought forever.”

A Thirty-five year show-business entertainer, FRED TRAVALENA, has performed in front of five Presidents of the United States, Fortune 500 clubs. He has performed on hundreds of television shows, including his own T.V. series and Specials and headlines the top resorts in Las Vegas and Branson, Mo. He now speaks from the heart about his winning battle with cancer. What’s different about this presentation, is it is not only informative, inspirational, and hopeful, it is hilarious!

You’ll be entertained as FRED does dozens of comedic impressions.

Imagine

  • Jack Nicholson as your oncologist.
  • Robert DeNiro doing your anesthesia.
  • Bob Hope as your lab technician.
  • Bill Cosby as your nurse
  • Or Dr.Ruth putting you through urine analysis!

Health and Wellness Speaker, FRED TRAVALENA, also talks about priorities and how they change with the crucial blow of being told you have Non Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and have to have chemotherapy. Now the need to study, read and pursue text books, computer websites, and to seek “help” in many different ways from many different people in order to put his mind at rest came to the forefront…. and yet, his mind never stopped. When Fred realized he was in for the fight of his life, delay had no place. His attitude was “bring it on!”

Cancer survivor, FRED went into depression, anxiety, frustration, and turmoil, but he never stopped processing it. “How can I heal my body? What does my body need to get through this?” Doctors may know about poisons, treatments, and big machines that are suppose to heal the body, but Fred also found solace in consulting with and experimenting with whole foods and seeking holistic advice and a closer walk with God.

“He Who Laughs… Lasts!” and you thought it was over!

”Yes, Mr. Travalena, you are in complete remission…oh, and by the way, you have prostate cancer.”

“Sounds like a bad dream doesn’t it,” says Fred.

“Almost one year to the day the successful CHOP chemotherapy treatment ended I heard two things. One I was waiting to hear the other I had no idea I would hear.”

“Mr. Travalena, I’m writing on your chart NED (no evidence of disease), no Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, BUT, Mr. Travalena, you have prostate cancer. It was like being in the movie Poltergeist,” “I’m baaaaaaaaaaack!”

It was bad. But there were options (if that’s what you call them!).

“I learned life is a gift from God having cured me twice of Cancer. I must utilize my time now to the fullest! Recently writing a song for Child HELP U.S.A. “ If you want to change the world, love the children”

“Surviving is my testimony, laughter is my tool.”
