Jen… I didn’t know, I didn’t know, I didn’t know… and I’m sick about this. Your blog popped up when I quickly checked my FB… I’m in the middle of working on a huge estate sale and need to finish advertising tonight. I told myself, just glance at this and look at it later. But I couldn’t. I had to read to the end.

I was blessed in September 2009 when my cancer was small… smaller when they checked again and even smaller when I had a lumpectomy. I had to have radiation and I’m on a chemo drug for five years. I had it easy… but I’m pissed. Why me? Why my mom years ago? Why my mother-in-law years ago as well. What does that mean for my daughter? I got mad and determined and mad… and on and on…

Take care of yourself, your husband, your children. Get mad… get really mad!

Can we talk in a week or so? Email is fine…

Just promise me that you’ll get mad! And take care of yourself. You are very, very special!

Jen, I can only imagine what you have been going through and I have been following you for months now. My friend was diagnosed with cancer and I have been on this adventure with her, but I am not her. She is also diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. She has just completed two months of chemo and the tumor in her lungs has shrunk by 50% so she is now happily able to have part of her lung removed. If the tumor had not decreased in size then I guess it would have been looking at plan #2. After her surgery she will then need to have 4 months of chemo.
You are amazing women, and we who have not gone through this ourselves cannot imagine.
Enjoy life, but please. please. please take care of yourself
