I heard about Jenny from Kneady Homesteader's channel on CZcams. I have only been watching Jenny's videos for 3 or 4 days. I didn't even hardly know Jenny. This video popped up and I thought I would come and meet Jenny. Prayers for you Kyle, just praying continually for you for strength to continue on and take care of your children and that you will stay well. Please make sure that you and your children are sleeping. Lack of sleep after a death can cause lots of problems and could be a sign that something is wrong. Once again prayers.
@@gigglesandhugs5690I watch all these videos but I don’t know how payment works for them. Do I just need to watch? Like? I would like to help out the family. I’m disabled and on a fixed income so donating isn’t an option, but if it helps for me to watch or rewatch videos I would love to help.
@@gailsfoodandstuffthat's amazing to hear something else worked and yes I have seen someone cancel free then died because of the chemotherapy. So very sad
I see I’m not alone in wanting to see Jenny “at the beginning” and hear her sweet voice again. Kyle, I just watched your livestream an hour or so ago. I’m grateful that Jenny’s pain is controlled and that she’s able to sleep. I’m especially thankful that she’ll be able to come home. You are all very much in my thoughts and I’m praying for you daily. We love you all. ❤️🙏🏻
I am doing the exact same thing after watching Kyle's live stream. My heart hurts for them all. But, I can say from my personal experience with both of my parents' passing that a kind hospice nurse makes all the difference. I am so thankful they have found great hospice care willing to do what it takes to allow Jenny to be home. 💔
I just can't believe she's had to go through this. It's just horrible. Children are more resilient but her husband is going to go through hell. He really has no clue just how much he is going to miss her ...
It's so frustrating how medical gaslighting can happen for women so frequently. Rest in peace, Jenny, your channel will help so many people advocate for themselves when they know something is wrong.
This is why one has to advocate for themselves when they feel something is wrong. And keep pressing the issue until your medical problem is addressed. Unfortunately, just because someone is young does not necessarily make her or him immune to serious disease.
Her doc did blood work, chest X-ray & ultrasound. That's a thorough workup for a healthy 32 y/o woman. They order CT scans sparingly as it exposes the patient to a lot of radiation.
Looks like a lot of us are having the same idea come see Jenny in a more healthier state. God😢 idk what to even say. She has touched our hearts with her beautiful soul. You all are in so many of our prayers.
It looks like everyone came to the same place to see Jenny. I will miss seeing her beautiful face everyday. She is so sweet and has a comforting voice. She had such grace throughout this entire, sad, painful journey. Even after being told its her last days, she was making pizzaman jokes trying to ease everyone elses pain. What a beautiful soul !! I will miss you Jenny! Still praying for you and family. We love you!! ❤️
She did on the 5th of november at 5:00pm RIP Jenny I will never forget you and your great attitude in life even though you had cancer, you made the best of every day! I pray for your family…
The way our healthcare system functions is so incredibly unacceptable. She had to beg and cry at an urgent care months too late to get a test that she needed. How is this possible in a first world country? Imagine if they took her seriously at the onset of her symptoms. It is infuriating watching her go through what she's going through today, and I put the blame in large part on our terrible system. Not a guarantee, but the outcome could have been so different if they got to her earlier. Jenny and her husband are such good people, and it is so messed up this happened! People need to be strong advocates for themselves, and we need reform!!!
Our medical system has been taken over by big business. They have forced MDs to join large groups where they track everything and all that matters is the bottom line. MDs are just worker bees now. It is insane and sad. Appointments are weeks or months out. Emergency Care facilities are sometimes the only option. ER's are overrun with patients and under staffed. Things are not going to improve anytime soon.
I don‘t think it‘s the healthcare system. It has to do more with the fact that young people, especially women often aren‘t taken seriously by doctors. Lung cancer on someone so young is very rare and most doctors probably only see it few times in their careers if that. But still, if you have rib pain they should at least do chest x-rays. It‘s so infuriating.
So true. My son went to a family doctor for annual check up. The doctor told him no need to come back for a couple of years. I am so mad at this doctor. It wasn't easy to get my son to do an annual physical. I told my son to find another doctor who take him seriously.@@Andrea-ue7gv
I too went thu hell- a simple chest xray- which is protocal,- and I had to fight, beg, demand for 10 months- a simple chest xray showed I have lung cancer- the way I have been treated was so cruel- I seriously considered no treatment after the fact- just wrong to treat people this way on a systematic basis
No! Tragically it IS our healthcare system in the United States of America. It didn't used to be this way when I started working in healthcare back in 1971. Now, primary care docs' practices have been bought up by larger hospitals and are under pressure to see as many patients as possible. Appointments are waitlisted for months. Last time I checked the rating of medical care in the US was.listed as 45th in the world with the best care being in the Nordic countries and many other nations. It is a travesty!!! The countries rated as providing the highest quality of medical care were all socialized medicine. Look it up.
R.I.P. Jenny 11/5/23 at 5pm. You will be greatly missed. You taught the world a lot about non-smoking Lung Cancer and Stage 4 cancer through your thoughtful loving journey. Loving, healing prayers to Kyle, Ellis and Winnie. 🙏🙏
@@jsj297That is what her husband, Kyle, said. To avoid any confusion, she was declared deceased on November 5, 2023 at 5 pm. RIP Jennifer Appleford. She was only 36.
@@jaypie0864 as far as I know I don’t believe she has, but thank you for not coming on here and right away blasting the covid vaccine for causing cancer. At this point we really don’t know. While I cannot say for certainty that it can’t cause cancer, I have been doing my own research and haven’t really found a correlation in any increase of multiple kinds of cancer in those who have received the vaccine. Personally I think the increase in cancer rates is caused more by environmental factors, air quality, food additives, etc. The increase of certain types of cancer has been on the rise long before the covid vaccine became available. But I guess only time will tell. Thanks again for being nice and not coming on here in an attacking fashion as I’ve seen many people do on other cancer channels I’m following. That’s just hurtful to those already feeling guilty wondering if they did something that caused their cancer.
Exactly because she complained for months. If they would have done the scan when it first started. They could have called it a lot earlier and that can mean all of the difference with the prognosis of how much time she has with us... Their mistake could have literally taken off months of somebody's life!!
I think doctors don't make as many mistakes as they claim. They knew this lady was getting sick and kept on lying to her. I do believe most doctors are just scammers. I really hope this lady gets better.
This is so sad to think it took her so long to be diagnosed. Absolutely sickening. Your body tells you when something is wrong but they ignored her until it was too late. Rest in peace beautiful Jennie. You deserved so much better than you got.
The fact that She had to *beg* medical professionals to do their JOB is beyond infuriating. They were just going to send her home because her blood work "appeared" normal. That's borderline Malpractice! Rest In Paradise Sweet Angel. The Courage, Grace, and Dignity you displayed was and is Awe-inspiring. God Bless🕯
Yeah unfortunately people do the job for the money only. And the social position. You have to have different doctor, until you fell you have and answer.
My mom had been complaining of a stomach ache for quite some time but her doctor kept brushing it off. One day she had a stroke. While recovering in the hospital, they finally took a look at her stomach. She had ovarian cancer that spread throughout her abdomen. We lost her a few months after. This makes me SO ANGRY. For my mom and this beautiful young woman that should be living a long life with her family. These doctors need to listen to us. We know if there's something wrong with our bodies. How many people would still be here if diagnosed sooner. It breaks my heart.
The same thing happened to my mother. They say Ovarian Cancer is the silent killer. I'd say it's more like deaf doctors are the silent killer. So sorry for your loss. I was 27 when she passed.
@@sap3737They know some insurance carriers will not pay for expensive tests. That’s a primary reason they won’t order tests. Find another doctor if someone does this to you.
As I watch this and your live stream now your journey is coming to an end. Sweet Jenny, you fought so hard. I will never forget your bravery and courage during your fight. Sending love, hugs 🫂 and prayers for you, Kyle, Ellis and Winnie. May God comfort you during this journey. You set an example for all of us Warriors out there to never give up. God Speed.🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋❤️❤️❤️💐
You, like many people have not accepted death as a part of life. She is dying, there is not going to be a miracle, and it is important to accept that so that you can help that person through this last stage of life. @@Theresa-zg9uo
@@Theresa-zg9uoJenny is in hospice now. The doctor says she may only have a few days left. In medical parlance, she is “actively dying”. Kyle posted a livestream about an hour ago. Her pain is controlled, she is getting good rest, and spending as much time as she can with her family.
@Theresa-zg9uo yes but she is dying. There isn't any coming back from where she's at right now unfortunately. The focus is being comfortable - pain free and spending time with family, because they have days. As someone who was right there when my mother passed of Lung cancer and witnessing a lot of death in my career. She is going to pass and soon unfortunately.
I researched this video because of Jenny's hospice state. I am so proud of her personal advocacy and yet feel she was so let down by her primary's negligence. Pain is a symptom and it should have been taken more seriously. And yet her bravery during her journey is so admirable. Utterly heartbreaking.
@@christinelamb1167this story is unbelievably sad, but I don’t see how it’s the initial PCP’s fault. They ordered a chest X-ray as well as a CBC and spleen US. That’s quite a bit of testing, and the truth is stuff gets expensive for people very quickly. Medicine is just the application of evidence based science, and 999/1000 someone of her age and health wouldn’t need more testing. It’s super unfortunate in this situation, but I feel that the PCP did take her concerns seriously, and placing blame on them isn’t super fair.
@@JohnDeere1738 Actually they did not order an x-ray. Months and months later she had to BEG the doctor for an x-rays. That's when they found something, but it was already so advanced.
Doctors are good listeners. They listen to their instructors and colleagues tell them all the lies and misinformation that they then spread on to us that gets and keeps us all sick so they make bank on drugs.
This is generalizing doctors pretty heavily. All doctors are different. There are "doctors" and then there are doctors. Same kinda concept with "back the blue". There are "police officers" and there are police officers. It's common sense.
Doctors don’t listen, they talk and expect you to listen. In their minds they know all there is to know about everything and the patients are just peasants who know nothing. We adults are supposed to be thankful that these people - who seem like kids right out of school- are gracing us with their wisdom.
I've been following Jenny's story for a while now. I'm a retired nurse practitioner, and it appalls me that she didn't get a simple CXR to start with. Not expensive - diagnosis very possible at the outset of her symptoms. I've known of other non-smokers who got her form of adenocarcinoma - it does happen. She, Kyle, and her children are in my prayers every day. God bless you, Jenny.
I can't stop thinking about where she would've been now if she got scan straight away.... Overwhelming to think that this could have been prevented...Is it possible that she would have developed this kind of symptoms already when the canser is in the first stage?
It’s because of California. I had to begggggg to get an MRI on my Knee for pain for over 7 years. I’m only 27 and I have a cyst on it. They disregard everyone. It took 6 months for us to get my son diagnosed with acid reflux to get him medicine. As a Canadian, this country disgusts me.
Your story is similar to my Dad’s. He had pain in his ribs/arm for over a year. When he complained to his family Dr, the Dr would say things like “ just don’t move your arm if it hurts” He finally complained to his cardiologist who ran tests and found cancer with Mets. My Dad had the same cancer as yours. For anyone reading this, you know your body, if something isn’t right, don’t stop until you get answers. Don’t let Dr’s discredit your complaints. Be your own advocate, it may save your life. This is so sad.
im going through this rn and its even worse because i’m a 16 year old female who looks very healthy on the outside, i’ve been getting a bunch of symptoms along with unexplained fatigue yet everyone around me thinks im faking everything for “attention”, its been going on for a month and i just feel helpless
Rest in Peace Jenny, this journey you recorded will not just be a testament to the vibrancy, love, and courage you showed on your own cancer journey, but a light for those going through it themselves. Thank you for being you.
I'm watching this after Jenny passed on 11/5/23. R.I.P. Jenny you're now officially an angel but in rewatching this now I realized that you were always an angel all along! ❤️🙏
As a nurse myself, you were blown off for over a year! That is medical malpractice!! I know you are gone. To anyone reading this…… you must be your own advocate. Be aggressive and fight for answers. I can not believe that a simple, cheap x-ray was not done the first visit!! I am 5 yrs post breast cancer. This just kills me. I am so sorry❤
Kyle this broke my heart watching this today . I truly understand where your coming from . My husband got very confused before he passed . The Drs suspected the cancer had spread to his brain . It’s the most horrible thing watching your loved one go from the vibrant person they were to not knowing what’s going on around them .Your whole family is in my prayers .🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I witnessed how horrible healthcare was during covid. It is such a shame that she was ignored and dismissed. Ive never seen someone handle such a devastating situation with as much grace, faith and love as her and Kyle. God bless Kyle and them babies ❤ fly high Jen.
I couldn't agree more. The last time I was in the Hospital for COVID so many people were out in the waiting room some so so sick they couldn't even stand an they didn't even care or separate me from others knowing I had it. It makes me wonder if she would still be here had they listened to her sooner! She shouldn't had had to beg for tests..
So beautiful, inside and out. You will be forever missed and remembered. You touched the world and taught so much to many. 💔💔 As a widowed mother, and former smoker, who lost my own mother to lung cancer, I was having severe rib pain. I was too scared to see a doctor for awhile. Because I watched this video , I got a CT scan. It was thankfully clear, but I never would have gotten it without Jenny. I'm sure she saved others.
Shame on that doctor for not taking you seriously when you explained your symptoms! Doctors don't take women seriously, after watching your video today, I'm in tears. God bless you and your family and friends.
I love that we are all here looking at Jenny's beautiful face. I am new to her journey but it affected me so much. What a courageous woman who bear the hell out of cancer❤
I can't believe these Dr's she saw. This is extremely heartbreaking. My mom just passed away from lung cancer. Started with back pain like Jenny, and Dr's told her it's probably her mattress. NO IT WASNT. it was lung cancer. Dr's are horrible now ah days. Jenny is right. ADVOCATE FOR YOUR SELF AND FAMILY. Jenny is soooo strong. My mamma was too. ❤
One thing being an RN has taught me, is to just live life and enjoy it the moment. You can do everything right, and still be sick or worse. Wish the best for this person and family ❤
@@carmencarp3594You have to know what to ask and do some research before seeing the doctor. A lot of the doctors would not think of cancer the first thing when they see a young person walking into the clinic. If they see a young person complaining of blood in the stool, they will do a physical exam, probably saying something like hemorrhoids or rectal fistula send you home with the cream maybe a blood test. They will not send the person to colonoscopy right away especially the bleeding is not significant. People with no medical background will just listen to whatever the doctor tell them. ( By the way if it is bleeding from the hemorrhoids it will stop within a week) otherwise it could be something more serious. 😮
@@carmencarp3594it will carry happening because the long and short of It is most doctors don't care, their needs, those of their colleagues trump their patients needs, I had my pneumonia and Sepsis missed by one GP practice and PMR missed by another. Both practices covered up their mistakes.I now have a private naturopathic doctor, I might pay but he cares about and does the best for his patients.
Who else still comes back to the beginning of Jenny’s journey? I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone as strong as her. Praise God that she had Kyle…he was/is a rock!! 🙏🏼💕🙏🏼
Jenny, it is 10/6/23 and I've recently found your channel. I've watched all of your more recent videos but this one was recommended to me and so I watched even though it is 2 years old. I want to say that you are beautiful and strong and you've been such a fighter through all of this. I will pray for you to have the strength and grace and comfort you need on this journey.
Same here but 10/25/23 so I am catching up! My nanny (2015-80 years old) and husband (2021-52yeaes old) both passed from the same cancer both smoked since they were very young. My nanny had the cancer removed by lobectomy and tonsillectomy and did not treatments when she was 76 and it returned 3 years later. She lived almost a year with no treatment. They had told her she might gain 1 year but it would be a rough year of treatment to gain that other year. She was very lucky to be relatively healthy and felt pretty good until the last month. She ended up having showers of mini strokes and survived that about a week and passed with a bigger stroke. I was glad the pain and suffering didn’t linger on and on. My husband has a bunch of abdominal surgeries due to a ruptured ulcer and abbess’s. After 4 surgeries and a rough year and severe weight loss his back and hips were hurting him and just weren’t getting better so we inquired, a scan was done and blasting lesions were found on the pelvis. A bone biopsy was done quickly and we were expecting prostate cancer because his dad had it , but we’re were shocked with news it was stage 4 lung cancer that had already spread to the pelvis, spine, collar bone and tailbone. He was a horrible patient, still smoked, did eat right, was already down about 75lbs, was addicted to pain meds due to chronic pain for 15 years, didn’t sleep regular, just over all stubborn and non compliant. But we did radiation and chemo, he continued to lose weight. Ended up going from a man that was 6’3” weighing about 220 to 130lbs and was nothing but bones and that was so painful. He could never take his pain meds correctly and I felt terrible fighting with him over because he did have cancer and it was in the bones and extremely painful. But the doctor literally wouldn’t have ever been able to give him enough meds! It was that bad. It ended up spreading to his liver and ribs and he was in so much unmanageable pain we talked to hospice and we had decided that he was going to sign up with hospice and I honestly think that finally coming to that decision and being so tired of the pain he was at peace with his decision and he actually passed away in his sleep that very next morning. He fought his cancer almost a year from his diagnosis. I hate lung cancer for taking 2 of the. People that I loved the most in this world and I am so sorry you are going through this. My prayers are with you, your husband and children and extended family! It is so very hard to watch your loved one be in pain and suffer. I pray your good days outweigh you bad and you get to enjoy your babies much longer than the doctors think! Sending love and prayers.
Your beautiful family and sharing Jenny’s cancer journey has been a true inspiration for more people than you can possibly imagine. Specifically the grace and honesty you have displayed amidst such difficult and emotional situation has been courageous and encouraging at the same time. Praying for peace and comfort as you all transition to a new life.
So, today is 8th Nov 2023 and I just learned we lost our beautiful Jenny on the 5th. I'd never seen this video before. When I came across Jenny's channel was just before she shaved her hair off and she knew she was terminal. but was about to start a new clinical trial. She's unbelievably beautiful and graceful. What a loss! Cancer sucks! Her husband and family are broken-hearted. But she's free from pain and sadness at last. And the love she gave and received, she took with her to cherish until they are reunited again.
🥰😘🌹Honey, it’s been 2years now since you made this video and I just want you to know how proud I am of you sweetheart, SOOOO proud. You’re a Class act, all the way! You’re very Brave, have Dignity, Poise, and are still stronger than you probably know. I love you my Dearest Sister in Christ Jesus. Love love love love love YOU! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
If any doctor refuses to do a mri, go to the emergency room and they will do it there. Make up a story because my dads dr refused to do one before it was too late
This is so sad that your symptoms were brushed off! Shortness of breath along with rib pain should have warranted diagnostic testing of your lungs the first time you went in. Goodness, I wish you weren’t suffering through all these treatments. Wonderful you have so much support in your family. 💕🙏
I'm so sorry for everything you have had to go through: denial of your symptoms, inadequate testing, lack of pain management. I am a nurse and it's painful to me to see someone suffering. Sending you healing thoughts and hoping your care from this point on is competent, timely, and most of all supportive and compassionate. xo
Wishing you all the best in your cancer battle. Unfortunately regardless of your diet, environmental factors and how well you take care of yourself anyone can get cancer. The unfair thing is that sometimes there just isn’t an answer for so many people including my beloved mom. Prayers for your health.
And it's strange how some people can abuse their health and chain smoke for decades and not get cancer.. My gran is a good example. She's nearly 90 and has chain smoked several packs a day since her 20's. Weird
@@erebusagarista8031 Lung cancer is caused by gene mutations. Genes can be affected by many things both environmental and genetic. Smoking damages the lungs but so do particles in the air, for example, dust, car fumes etc. People who work with dangerous chemicals or items such as asbestos, are also carcinogenic. We don’t really know and cannot predict who will get cancer. Who does, and who doesn’t get lung cancer is overall down to luck at the moment. 85% of people living with lung cancer are non-small cell cancers. Over 300,000 cases are diagnosed every year and of course, not all lung cancer patients are or have been smokers. While people who smoke are of course damaging their lungs on a daily basis which makes them more susceptible to developing gene mutations, it’s not guaranteed that everyone who smokes will develop those gene mutations.
I've been watching Jenny for awhile and I've always wondered how she looked with locks and she is absolutely stunning. Then and now, she is a beautiful soul. I'm praying for you all.
My mom had the same cancer! My mom also put up a great fight! She passed away in 2012 at the age of 63. Stay strong!! Jenny is in the best place anyone could be looking down over you and the kids! RIP Jenny!
I know I should wait to get control over my rage, but I truly hope Jenny’s original doctor hears about her CZcams channel and reads these comments! I’ve spent the last 2 years watching this absolutely beautiful young mom and wife suffer through the most horrific treatments in order to have more time to spend with her precious children and unbelievably supportive & loving husband. Tragically, her poor little body wore out, and this cruel world lost a true gift from God. And why is this perfect little family now forced to face a life without her in it? Because for over a year, her doctor adamantly refused to listen to her complaints and concerns, despite the fact that she knew her body better than anyone else, and she was worried! Not to mention, she was an educated, health-conscious, young woman who was exhibiting obvious pulmonary distress. Rather than simply order a routine chest x-Ray, he completely ignored her requests, trivialized her fears, and treated her based solely on his own guess work. This arrogant, irresponsible, callous narcissist should be sued for medical malpractice, and he should not be allowed to practice medicine on another human being. Because of his recklessness, Jenny’s once treatable cancer spread too far to cure, and that beautiful angel was forced to suffer though years of devastating treatments which assaulted her body so badly, she wasn’t able to truly enjoy the little time she had left with her children and her family! Not to mention, her husband is not only faced with a future without the love of his life, he’s going to have to find childcare for his two traumatized children who have been raised with a stay-at-home mommy! There is no excuse for what this doctor put this family through, and he should be held accountable for the misery he caused!
When a person mentions breathing issues and pain in the chest a GOOD doctor would do some kind of diagnostic test - chest X-Ray, pulmonary testing, chest CT scan or MRI chest scan ....something, anything to at least begin to explore possible lung issue. And you can see the cost of being "too nice" or a "people pleaser." Frankly, a lot of doctors just do the bare minimum these days. And even in this case the ER nurse wanted to block you from getting the MRI. Good for being pushy.
I purposely go to a doctor rotation Clinic. I get a new fresh faced excited resident yearly. You are able to go to one visit and cover anything you want. If I want a chest scan they give it to me, if I want bloodwork they give it to me, if I need to discuss mental health and medication, they give it to me. They sit down and they say, what do you need from this visit? It has changed my whole perspective on doctors and care.
@jennyapple I agree yet my doctor has referred me for further tests but there's a waiting list. Got a slightly hoarse voice, some ache (not pain) in left lung, indesgestion and breathlessness etc.
My heart absolutely breaks for you, Kyle, and your family. So sad to just see this after viewing your latest video of saying your goodbyes in the hospital. Life is such a letdown sometimes, for everything it can be and more, I absolutely feel so much for you and your family. Godspeed girl, praying for some thing better than what it is now. All the best to you.
Dear Jenny thank you so much for posting your journey. You are such a sweet angel and I've been watching your videos but never saw this first one until today. I wish all the very best for you and your family. They are so lucky to have you and you them. I wish I could do something to help you but there is nothing so I will pray for you. You are the loveliest person!
I’ve been following your story. It is so tragic that your requests for scans were ignored. You are brave and an inspiration to this of us with NSCLC. Thank you and sending you positive thoughts. ❤
I stumbled on your channel a year or so ago, and have watched your journey since then. I am just so sorry. You are a beautiful person. Thank you so much for making me appreciate my life, and my life with my kids.
Your current videos have popped up for me for a while now. I guess maybe I started watching about 6 mo ago, but I never went back to your past videos. Today this popped up. Watching back, I see your shock, but I also see your strength. You are so powerful Jenny. I’m sorry this is your journey. I am not religious, but I pray for your healing.
Watching this now with the situation at the hospital makes me brutally sad. So smart and well spoken and beautiful. Ellis upside down and her smile is what i want to remember!! So much love from Florida during this terrible time. ❤
Your wife will soon be a beautiful angel . So sad to watch this video! Jenny is beautiful inside and out and she is one of a kind special lady . She will be missed by everyone that has had the pleasure to be graced by her . Watching her be soo strong and so unselfish through this journey . She fought with such bravery . May her passing be beautiful with no suffering.
Jenny you are absolutely beautiful. Ive been watching your updates since your cancer journey began. I saw your latest live.... Just know you have THOUSANDS of people out here praying and wishing good things for you. You are a fighter, thats for sure. Whatever awaits you Jenny, just know you left your mark here on this Earth.
Hi Jenny,I have been following you for a few months after first seeing you on CZcams. I think you are amazing dealing with this dreadful illness & I keep you in my prayers. I see a strong woman doing her very best to survive & you cope with whatever is thrown at you. It's good to cry & release emotions ,there's nothing wrong with that at all. You have a loving husband,2 beautiful children,family & friends to help support you...not to mention your dogs! Keep strong & fight the good fight my love. Pauline,from England X
I too watched Kyles video last night and was in tears throughout it. My heart goes out to Jenny of course but also to her wonderful husband and beautiful children. Kyle you have been a rock for Jenny throughout this and always remember that she knew you were there for her since day one. It must be so difficult for you with this worry over your beautiful wife whilst looking after your two children as well. I hope that Jenny continues to be pain free and know that you are in a lot of people's prayers xx
It is so infuriating how doctors brush aside or not take seriously issues that patients bring up. Good job pushing for the MRI scan. I saw your more recent videos and am heart broken. I truly wish you and your family all the best.
Right!?! The Drs need to have the shame rubbed in their face but by the point of actual diagnosis the patient has other things to think about than booking another appointment and saying to the Dr ' so that thing you said was nothing? Well it is cancer dickwad'
RIP Jenny. You popped up in my CZcams suggestions yesterday and I'm glad it did even though you're gone. You're a lovely person. Sending love to your loved ones ❤
Kyle I am so sorry for your loss! We were all so lucky to have Jenny in our lives! Thank you for sharing her with all of us! She did beat cancer and she did he beautifully 🩷
I just found your most recent video a few hours ago and have been catching up. Thank you for so bravely sharing your story and thanks to your husband for so openly sharing what it’s like for a spouse to go through this as well. Sending every ounce of healing and love I have, from Texas. You really are an angel. ❤❤
I have viewed your most recent videos but hadn't seen the beginning of your journey until now. I am so very sorry that they didn't catch your cancer sooner. How shocking for you since you take such good care of yourself. Saying prayers that your continued treatments help you & that you remain strong. Hugs, Jenny.❤
Oh Jenny you’ve touched my heart so deeply and I won’t forget your courage to live through this disease… May you rest in peace beautiful lady-praying for Kyle, Ellis and Winnie and your whole family… lots of love from Canada
No words.... I wish I could give you a big hug. You were and are Jenny's hero. God bless you and your beautiful children. May your memories carry you through this horrible time. Prayers and love sent your way. 💔
Just rewatching the first video I saw of your sweet Jenny. She was so strong throughout her fight. I’m glad she finally ‘beat cancer’. My heart goes out to you and your family❤
Omg that is the cutest little boy I've ever seen! And he looks exactly like your sweet husband 🥰 How precious you & your beautiful family are. You're a lucky girl! I know you are going to be fine and you'll enjoy a full, joyful lifetime with your lovely family.
Miss you so much Jenny …I’ve been following only a short time but feel like I’ve known you forever ….your vulnerability & gentleness & wholesomeness …..yes HELPFUL your videos are beautiful
Jenny your story has inspired me to stand up for myself with doctors. I too am just like you, i always go with the flow. But ive been having pain near my gallbladder, chest pains, heaviness in my arms and now migraines were i feel like out of body experience. They keep telling me everything is normal but never ran any ct scans anywhere. Watching your story has inspired me. Im so sorry for the doctors failing you. You are such a brautiful warrior and i will pray that you find peace in your transition. I can tell you theres more after death bc ive had a near death experience, and jenny its so beautiful on the other side.
You are amazing! You have a beautiful soul. And you and your son are adorable. Thank you for sharing your story. I am going through a similar situation and to see your peace and courage was inspiring. May God guide you and bless you.
Oh Jenny. My heart goes out to you. I was also diagnosed with Cancer in my lung how ever mine was "Muco epideomoid carcinoma". My story mirrored yours so much that I have goose bumps listening to you speak. When I was pregnant my sats were always low and I couldn't breath. I kept being told it will resolve the minute the baby is out. It didn't and I began to hear wheeze and pops and clicks in my lung and having pain. I went back to doctors and the ED over and over for over a year because in my heart I new something was wrong and I am a nurse. I had many chest scans but my cancer didn't show up on regular scan as it was in the main branches of my lung. In the end I started coughing up blood and ED still kept sending me home. In the end I went every single night, and told them I was going to continue doing so until someone told me what was going on, which finally resulted in them manually examining my chest scans with a respiratory physician. I have never smoked, don't drink, eat well, and also had a one year old at the time. I was SO scared and could very much relate to your panic phase. I am going okay now, and so far clear but I wish I could give you a big hug. Once a nurse told me she would pray for me when I was in despair, I'm not religious but it comforted me in a way I couldn't imagine. I will pray for you in the way I know prayer and continue to do so. Wishing you positive energy and light x
What a brave woman and family. To hear such news and only want to help others with such grace. This adventure has ended but you will go on. Thank you. So much love to all those who loved her. You won!! You're cancer free. You will be missed but never forgotten.
Thank you so much for sharing this, I'm sure this has, and will continue, to save many who don't know what symptoms to look out for. Doctors really need to listen to their patients. We have a sort of sixth sense that tells us when something's not right. Praying for a full recovery.
This is so heart breaking, to know that this could have been caught and treated so much sooner, and maybe a different outcome. You're in my prayers, Jenny. We love you ❤
Imagine if doctors tested for cancer first. Cancer is very time sensitive, but they test for every other thing first. Imagine how many cancers would be caught early.
This. Very nearly the same thing happened to my mom. She had a lump removed from her breast in Oct of 2019. As early as January 2022, she began complaining of pain in her chest (a burning, pulling sensation she always said) and pain across her shoulder and arm. She was told after doing preventative chemo and radiation in early 2020 that radiation on the chest can cause damage to ligaments and muscles, which can cause chronic pain in the area on and off. She visited her doctor a couple of times that year and was told likely that was the source. She did the heat/cool treatments to ease it and laying down frequently (she always said it hurt more being upright and pulling down.) It wasn't until 2023 when she began to be sick constantly (frequent nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath, acceleration of pain in the chest, bad fatigue) that she demanded to have all the scans or ultrasounds available. The cancer returned and spread; it had attached to the breast bone. That was the source of the pain. Spread to liver, lungs and brain at Stage 4 when they finally found it. She was diagnosed officially August 9 2023 and was too weak from having been sick so long to do treatment. She opted not to after a lot of discussion and tears. She just passed Oct 7 2023. It still makes me mad to think of it.
@EmoryStudy Thank you. For sure they do! I understand sometimes resources are limited and as sad as that is, it's no one's fault but advocacy needs to be 10000x better.
I just watched your gentle weaning video. I thought you were a wonderful person and a very kind mother. I am praying for your health and a long happy life :)
thank you jenny, you saved lives by urging us to get a scan if something feels off..you were a hero , you literally saved lives, bc of you im having a scan of my stomach , something is very wrong and it sounds like cancer..i pray it isn't but thank you bc of you i insisted on one when told by my dr it's prob just constipation..i remembered you and asked for the scan,,i love you jenny , i'll never forget you...
i was a perfectly healthy 14 year old in feb 2016, by june i had stage 4 alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma with distant mets. i can remember the feeling of constant fatigue and breathlessness pre diagnosis. it’s incredibly scary. i can also relate to the drs dismissing me because of how healthy i looked, ignored my obvious lumps. the second i felt my lump i knew it was cancer idk i just could tell. i am now 2.5 yrs in remission after a relapse but i’m remaining positive.
@@danielleiapalucci1693 yes the first dr i saw when i went to the er for cancer symptoms was more concerned with my appearance. he pulled my mom aside and said “if she doesn’t like the way she looks in a bikini in a few years we can remove the lump”. talking about a 14 year old girl… some drs are in it for all the wrong reasons and it’s hard to trust them.
what a beautiful, beautiful soul you were, I came here looking for education to help me with the new DX of my sisters stage 3 uterine ca and found you. How lucky I was to witness a true angel on earth. I am a nurse of many years and I have Never seen anyone like you ever, your faith and love for your family and others shined. Your videos are a testament to all, when Kyle is ready I hope he carries on your fight. I also hope he carries on his journey with life after Jenny. Your one of Gods angels now. I miss you Jenny
We went through this same experience with my father in law. He was a very healthy 73 year old that spontaneously lost 20 lbs in 2 weeks, localized pain in his abdomen, chest, and back. I had to beg for an abdominal ct scan. Long story short he had stage 4 Mets to the lungs, kidneys, retroperitoneal area, liver and mediastinum. We were devastated. He had been to the doctor several times with concerns prior.. and no one would listen. He passed away at.Home with us 8 wks after his scan. Praying for you Jenny and everyone else fighting.
We love you Jenny. We are here with you two years later. You have been a true warrior. When you transition into a angel your family will not leave your side. Don’t be afraid. You have made such a impact on all of us that watch you. To never give up. You never did. We will miss you so much!
This video was at the top of the list when I signed into CZcams. I know why: because I have been following her journey for most of 2023. I didn't go to the beginning, so I'm glad I can watch it. Like so many, my heart is broken over the loss of her life, but at the same time, thankful that she's no longer in pain. Rest easy, Jenny. Thanks for being such a shining light while here on earth.
WOW!! I just thought Id start back at the beginning because I've missed hearing Jenny speaking since she died, but never expected that so many other people would be doing the same thing!! She was as lovely on the inside as she was on the outside!
Truly miss Jenny, she helped me cope and understand the passing of my best friend a year ago with lung cancer. She almost made 5 years. Thank you so much Jenny ❤
Can't believe this was 2 years ago that she got diagnosed. She was so brave through her journey, always positive, happy, and loved her kids and husband. You sure are missed, Jenny 😢
Absolutely heartbreaking 💔 so sorry you’re going through this. I also had to diagnose my own heart condition. The first specialist I was sent to belittled me, said I was wasting his time and I should have taken an antacid. I cried in the car for a few minutes before driving home. I insisted on seeing a cardiologist and good thing I did or I’d be dead now. The thought of leaving my dog was terrifying. I know it’s not kids like you have but he’s my baby, my world. I’m single and he only has me. My goal now is to outlive him. He’s 12. Your kids are amazing and I totally understand your fear about leaving them. 😢 Praying that doesn’t happen. Damn cancer it’s just so unfair. I watched a few of your more recent videos and you were worried about how your hair looked, I thought you looked absolutely beautiful. Sending love and hugs. ❤❤
Going back and watching repeats of Jenny’s story in honor of her life. Prayers for Kyle, Ellis, and Winnie.
I know, this was next after Kyle announced Jenny did pass away. To see Jenny describing how a healthy person had these symptoms is difficult.
I didnt know what else to do but to come to her channel and watch to at least let money come in.
I heard about Jenny from Kneady Homesteader's channel on CZcams. I have only been watching Jenny's videos for 3 or 4 days. I didn't even hardly know Jenny. This video popped up and I thought I would come and meet Jenny. Prayers for you Kyle, just praying continually for you for strength to continue on and take care of your children and that you will stay well. Please make sure that you and your children are sleeping. Lack of sleep after a death can cause lots of problems and could be a sign that something is wrong. Once again prayers.
I’m doing the same.
@@gigglesandhugs5690I watch all these videos but I don’t know how payment works for them. Do I just need to watch? Like? I would like to help out the family. I’m disabled and on a fixed income so donating isn’t an option, but if it helps for me to watch or rewatch videos I would love to help.
Horrifying to see how fast this cancer took her, from diagnosis until now. She was the sweetest person and so humble. RIP. Praying for the family.
Cancer didnt take her she took cancer. Cancer didnt survive once she died.
She actually survived a long time considering her initial diagnosis was stage 3. Dustin Diamond died in one month after his diagnosis
@@gailsfoodandstuffthat's amazing to hear something else worked and yes I have seen someone cancel free then died because of the chemotherapy. So very sad
Yup my mom and mother in law had small cell lung cancer and it moves quick! Generally only 2 years tops smh. Miss both of our parents 😢
it wasn't the cancer that took her, but the "treatment"
I see I’m not alone in wanting to see Jenny “at the beginning” and hear her sweet voice again. Kyle, I just watched your livestream an hour or so ago. I’m grateful that Jenny’s pain is controlled and that she’s able to sleep. I’m especially thankful that she’ll be able to come home. You are all very much in my thoughts and I’m praying for you daily. We love you all. ❤️🙏🏻
Me!!
I’m doing to same thing.
I am doing the exact same thing after watching Kyle's live stream. My heart hurts for them all. But, I can say from my personal experience with both of my parents' passing that a kind hospice nurse makes all the difference. I am so thankful they have found great hospice care willing to do what it takes to allow Jenny to be home. 💔
You are right, you aren't the only one.
I just can't believe she's had to go through this. It's just horrible. Children are more resilient but her husband is going to go through hell. He really has no clue just how much he is going to miss her ...
Who else is on here because they wanted to know how it all started…..😢

Me 😢
Just found this beautiful person and her story 😢

It's so frustrating how medical gaslighting can happen for women so frequently. Rest in peace, Jenny, your channel will help so many people advocate for themselves when they know something is wrong.
Happens for men as well. Going thru it myself. It's just a thing. The arrogance of those we depend on to work for us.
what makes you think this just a female issue?
She's a possum guys, and a stupid one. Leave it alone.
This is why one has to advocate for themselves when they feel something is wrong. And keep pressing the issue until your medical problem is addressed. Unfortunately, just because someone is young does not necessarily make her or him immune to serious disease.
Her doc did blood work, chest X-ray & ultrasound. That's a thorough workup for a healthy 32 y/o woman. They order CT scans sparingly as it exposes the patient to a lot of radiation.
Jenny, you didnt lose your battle you fought like the warrior you are and I hope your transition is pain free and peaceful. Fly high.
Amen! 🪽🪽🪽
❤🙏
Did she pass???
@@spark2053 of course not! "jenny" had YET ANOTHER 11th hour "miracle" and she'll be on youtube, running her mouth, for - what? months? years?
Yes she did, November 5th at 5:00 pm.😢
Imagine if the doctors took her concerns seriously from the first time she mentioned them. She might still be here. RIP Jenny.
Absolutely!! USA is overwhelmed and notorious for gaslighting, brushing it off, and passing the buck
Looks like a lot of us are having the same idea come see Jenny in a more healthier state. God😢 idk what to even say. She has touched our hearts with her beautiful soul. You all are in so many of our prayers.
I feel the same way. Remembering her without the pain and suffering. What a beautiful woman and family.
So true that’s exactly what I’m doing, beautiful inside and out💕🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I’m so sad that this beautiful soul is gone. She is now an angel. God bless her family.
It looks like everyone came to the same place to see Jenny. I will miss seeing her beautiful face everyday. She is so sweet and has a comforting voice. She had such grace throughout this entire, sad, painful journey. Even after being told its her last days, she was making pizzaman jokes trying to ease everyone elses pain. What a beautiful soul !! I will miss you Jenny! Still praying for you and family. We love you!! ❤️

@@christophermiller159 prayers for her tiny family and friends all over. She earned my heart 😢
Yes I just wanted to see her beautiful face
The way our healthcare system functions is so incredibly unacceptable. She had to beg and cry at an urgent care months too late to get a test that she needed. How is this possible in a first world country? Imagine if they took her seriously at the onset of her symptoms. It is infuriating watching her go through what she's going through today, and I put the blame in large part on our terrible system. Not a guarantee, but the outcome could have been so different if they got to her earlier. Jenny and her husband are such good people, and it is so messed up this happened! People need to be strong advocates for themselves, and we need reform!!!
Our medical system has been taken over by big business. They have forced MDs to join large groups where they track everything and all that matters is the bottom line. MDs are just worker bees now. It is insane and sad. Appointments are weeks or months out. Emergency Care facilities are sometimes the only option. ER's are overrun with patients and under staffed. Things are not going to improve anytime soon.
I don‘t think it‘s the healthcare system. It has to do more with the fact that young people, especially women often aren‘t taken seriously by doctors. Lung cancer on someone so young is very rare and most doctors probably only see it few times in their careers if that. But still, if you have rib pain they should at least do chest x-rays. It‘s so infuriating.
So true. My son went to a family doctor for annual check up. The doctor told him no need to come back for a couple of years. I am so mad at this doctor. It wasn't easy to get my son to do an annual physical. I told my son to find another doctor who take him seriously.@@Andrea-ue7gv
I too went thu hell- a simple chest xray- which is protocal,- and I had to fight, beg, demand for 10 months- a simple chest xray showed I have lung cancer- the way I have been treated was so cruel- I seriously considered no treatment after the fact- just wrong to treat people this way on a systematic basis
No! Tragically it IS our healthcare system in the United States of America. It didn't used to be this way when I started working in healthcare back in 1971. Now, primary care docs' practices have been bought up by larger hospitals and are under pressure to see as many patients as possible. Appointments are waitlisted for months. Last time I checked the rating of medical care in the US was.listed as 45th in the world with the best care being in the Nordic countries and many other nations. It is a travesty!!! The countries rated as providing the highest quality of medical care were all socialized medicine. Look it up.
I don't know her and I cried like I'm grieving a sister. What a beautiful soul. Rest easy angel.
This is eye-opening that a person's blood work can look normal and good, yet have cancer.
Depends what you check.
I agree with you. I always thought it would show any type of cancer!!
R.I.P. Jenny 11/5/23 at 5pm. You will be greatly missed. You taught the world a lot about non-smoking Lung Cancer and Stage 4 cancer through your thoughtful loving journey. Loving, healing prayers to Kyle, Ellis and Winnie. 🙏🙏
@@jsj297 oops, I must have put 7 by accident. I changed it. Thanks!
@@jsj297That is what her husband, Kyle, said.
To avoid any confusion, she was declared deceased on November 5, 2023 at 5 pm.
RIP Jennifer Appleford.
She was only 36.
I am seeking information for a family member with the same condition and have to ask: Has she ever disclosed her vaccination status?
@@jaypie0864 as far as I know I don’t believe she has, but thank you for not coming on here and right away blasting the covid vaccine for causing cancer. At this point we really don’t know. While I cannot say for certainty that it can’t cause cancer, I have been doing my own research and haven’t really found a correlation in any increase of multiple kinds of cancer in those who have received the vaccine. Personally I think the increase in cancer rates is caused more by environmental factors, air quality, food additives, etc. The increase of certain types of cancer has been on the rise long before the covid vaccine became available. But I guess only time will tell. Thanks again for being nice and not coming on here in an attacking fashion as I’ve seen many people do on other cancer channels I’m following. That’s just hurtful to those already feeling guilty wondering if they did something that caused their cancer.
@@jaypie0864if you look at some recent videos all the information about it is in the description idk which video it was maybe checkout the recent ones
The drs should be held accountable for their “ negligence “
Exactly because she complained for months. If they would have done the scan when it first started. They could have called it a lot earlier and that can mean all of the difference with the prognosis of how much time she has with us... Their mistake could have literally taken off months of somebody's life!!
I think doctors don't make as many mistakes as they claim. They knew this lady was getting sick and kept on lying to her. I do believe most doctors are just scammers. I really hope this lady gets better.
The doctors are ABSOLUTELY RESPONSIBLE. This could have been caught way earlier. So sorry😢.
@@Jerseyboondocksk
Everyone has to have an advocate. I am in in home West pathway in home hospice.
This is so sad to think it took her so long to be diagnosed. Absolutely sickening. Your body tells you when something is wrong but they ignored her until it was too late. Rest in peace beautiful Jennie. You deserved so much better than you got.
It could have saved her life if they'd given her better care the year symptoms started. This is sickening 😞😔😯
When did the symptoms start because I have been looking back and I don't see her saying anything about being in pain
To be fair, its extremely unlikely for a healthy young woman with no history of nicotine abuse to have this.
@@iamwhoiam7887yet she had it and died because of it. doesn't mean shxt, if you're in pain something is wrong
@@anonymous-bb2dw well the issue is women think everything is cancer.
The fact that She had to *beg* medical professionals to do their JOB is beyond infuriating.
They were just going to send her home because her blood work "appeared" normal.
That's borderline Malpractice!
Rest In Paradise Sweet Angel.
The Courage, Grace, and Dignity you displayed was and is Awe-inspiring. God Bless🕯
Yeah unfortunately people do the job for the money only. And the social position. You have to have different doctor, until you fell you have and answer.
2 years ago the Doctors found I had Stage 3a Lung Cancer. And Now I am Cancer Free. There Is always hope for everyone
What did you use to heal yourself?

My mom had been complaining of a stomach ache for quite some time but her doctor kept brushing it off. One day she had a stroke. While recovering in the hospital, they finally took a look at her stomach. She had ovarian cancer that spread throughout her abdomen. We lost her a few months after. This makes me SO ANGRY. For my mom and this beautiful young woman that should be living a long life with her family. These doctors need to listen to us. We know if there's something wrong with our bodies. How many people would still be here if diagnosed sooner. It breaks my heart.
The same thing happened to my mother. They say Ovarian Cancer is the silent killer. I'd say it's more like deaf doctors are the silent killer. So sorry for your loss. I was 27 when she passed.
My aunt is fighting right now. I pray she will be healed. She was misdiagnosed and ignored many times
Why won’t drs do the tests ? i don’t understand don’t they just get paid more money to do them?
I feel as if doctors don't like it if you need to say "actually, I still have the problem".
It becomes like a battle of wills between you and them.
@@sap3737They know some insurance carriers will not pay for expensive tests. That’s a primary reason they won’t order tests. Find another doctor if someone does this to you.
You won the battle with cancer Jenny 🙏🏽
@katrina7082 How?
As I watch this and your live stream now your journey is coming to an end. Sweet Jenny, you fought so hard. I will never forget your bravery and courage during your fight. Sending love, hugs 🫂 and prayers for you, Kyle, Ellis and Winnie. May God comfort you during this journey. You set an example for all of us Warriors out there to never give up. God Speed.🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋❤️❤️❤️💐
No one knows what will happen. I was startled to read comments about end of life and angels. Jenny is alive. Shouldn´t that be the focus?
You, like many people have not accepted death as a part of life. She is dying, there is not going to be a miracle, and it is important to accept that so that you can help that person through this last stage of life. @@Theresa-zg9uo
She’s dying in the hosp at present
@@Theresa-zg9uoJenny is in hospice now. The doctor says she may only have a few days left. In medical parlance, she is “actively dying”. Kyle posted a livestream about an hour ago. Her pain is controlled, she is getting good rest, and spending as much time as she can with her family.
@Theresa-zg9uo yes but she is dying. There isn't any coming back from where she's at right now unfortunately. The focus is being comfortable - pain free and spending time with family, because they have days.
As someone who was right there when my mother passed of Lung cancer and witnessing a lot of death in my career. She is going to pass and soon unfortunately.
I researched this video because of Jenny's hospice state. I am so proud of her personal advocacy and yet feel she was so let down by her primary's negligence. Pain is a symptom and it should have been taken more seriously. And yet her bravery during her journey is so admirable. Utterly heartbreaking.
Yes, her doctors massively let her down, and I feel they have blood (metaphorically speaking) on their hands. It IS heartbreaking!
@@christinelamb1167this story is unbelievably sad, but I don’t see how it’s the initial PCP’s fault. They ordered a chest X-ray as well as a CBC and spleen US. That’s quite a bit of testing, and the truth is stuff gets expensive for people very quickly. Medicine is just the application of evidence based science, and 999/1000 someone of her age and health wouldn’t need more testing. It’s super unfortunate in this situation, but I feel that the PCP did take her concerns seriously, and placing blame on them isn’t super fair.
@@JohnDeere1738 Actually they did not order an x-ray. Months and months later she had to BEG the doctor for an x-rays. That's when they found something, but it was already so advanced.
The problem is women always worry about benign sh.
It's just awful that it's SO hard to get doctors to listen. I'm following you, Jenny. My heart is with you.
Doctors are good listeners. They listen to their instructors and colleagues tell them all the lies and misinformation that they then spread on to us that gets and keeps us all sick so they make bank on drugs.
They are too concerned with providing answers instead of the right ones.
This is generalizing doctors pretty heavily. All doctors are different. There are "doctors" and then there are doctors. Same kinda concept with "back the blue". There are "police officers" and there are police officers. It's common sense.
Doctors don’t listen, they talk and expect you to listen. In their minds they know all there is to know about everything and the patients are just peasants who know nothing. We adults are supposed to be thankful that these people - who seem like kids right out of school- are gracing us with their wisdom.
@@KBP120 they gatekeep the analyses necessary for rare early diagnoses of such problems
I've been following Jenny's story for a while now. I'm a retired nurse practitioner, and it appalls me that she didn't get a simple CXR to start with. Not expensive - diagnosis very possible at the outset of her symptoms. I've known of other non-smokers who got her form of adenocarcinoma - it does happen. She, Kyle, and her children are in my prayers every day. God bless you, Jenny.
I can't stop thinking about where she would've been now if she got scan straight away.... Overwhelming to think that this could have been prevented...Is it possible that she would have developed this kind of symptoms already when the canser is in the first stage?
Medical staff is not like it used to be.
It’s because of California. I had to begggggg to get an MRI on my Knee for pain for over 7 years. I’m only 27 and I have a cyst on it. They disregard everyone. It took 6 months for us to get my son diagnosed with acid reflux to get him medicine.
As a Canadian, this country disgusts me.
Exactly
Doctors trying to save money for the insurance companies!!! 😡 🤦♀️
Your story is similar to my Dad’s. He had pain in his ribs/arm for over a year. When he complained to his family Dr, the Dr would say things like “ just don’t move your arm if it hurts” He finally complained to his cardiologist who ran tests and found cancer with Mets. My Dad had the same cancer as yours. For anyone reading this, you know your body, if something isn’t right, don’t stop until you get answers. Don’t let Dr’s discredit your complaints. Be your own advocate, it may save your life. This is so sad.
im going through this rn and its even worse because i’m a 16 year old female who looks very healthy on the outside, i’ve been getting a bunch of symptoms along with unexplained fatigue yet everyone around me thinks im faking everything for “attention”, its been going on for a month and i just feel helpless

Rest in Peace Jenny, this journey you recorded will not just be a testament to the vibrancy, love, and courage you showed on your own cancer journey, but a light for those going through it themselves. Thank you for being you.
It’s quite hard to watch this knowing she’s gone … she’s so articulate, looks like such a good mum, and to think she’s gone… hard to comprehend
I'm watching this after Jenny passed on 11/5/23. R.I.P. Jenny you're now officially an angel but in rewatching this now I realized that you were always an angel all along! ❤️🙏
As a nurse myself, you were blown off for over a year! That is medical malpractice!! I know you are gone. To anyone reading this…… you must be your own advocate. Be aggressive and fight for answers. I can not believe that a simple, cheap x-ray was not done the first visit!!
I am 5 yrs post breast cancer.
This just kills me. I am so sorry❤
It is so heartbreaking that if our healthcare system was better she could still be alive today.
Kyle this broke my heart watching this today . I truly understand where your coming from . My husband got very confused before he passed . The Drs suspected the cancer had spread to his brain . It’s the most horrible thing watching your loved one go from the vibrant person they were to not knowing what’s going on around them .Your whole family is in my prayers .🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I'm so sorry
I am so sorry. Prayers for family.
I found a penny in a store yesterday. I picked it up and said "hi, Jenny!
I witnessed how horrible healthcare was during covid. It is such a shame that she was ignored and dismissed. Ive never seen someone handle such a devastating situation with as much grace, faith and love as her and Kyle. God bless Kyle and them babies ❤ fly high Jen.
I couldn't agree more. The last time I was in the Hospital for COVID so many people were out in the waiting room some so so sick they couldn't even stand an they didn't even care or separate me from others knowing I had it. It makes me wonder if she would still be here had they listened to her sooner! She shouldn't had had to beg for tests..
Ignoring this because of a minor sickness... these doctors need to face consequences..
So beautiful, inside and out. You will be forever missed and remembered. You touched the world and taught so much to many. 💔💔 As a widowed mother, and former smoker, who lost my own mother to lung cancer, I was having severe rib pain. I was too scared to see a doctor for awhile. Because I watched this video , I got a CT scan. It was thankfully clear, but I never would have gotten it without Jenny. I'm sure she saved others.
Thank God you were clear. That must have been terrifying. I'm sorry for your losses.
Shame on that doctor for not taking you seriously when you explained your symptoms! Doctors don't take women seriously, after watching your video today, I'm in tears. God bless you and your family and friends.
I love that we are all here looking at Jenny's beautiful face. I am new to her journey but it affected me so much. What a courageous woman who bear the hell out of cancer❤
I can't believe these Dr's she saw. This is extremely heartbreaking. My mom just passed away from lung cancer. Started with back pain like Jenny, and Dr's told her it's probably her mattress. NO IT WASNT. it was lung cancer.
Dr's are horrible now ah days. Jenny is right. ADVOCATE FOR YOUR SELF AND FAMILY.
Jenny is soooo strong. My mamma was too. ❤
Yes! Most of them are assholes and think they always know better
I watched this and wondered if the first doctor she saw had taken her seriously... would she still be here. Hearbreaking to think about.
So sorry for the loss of your mom. I pray God comforts you and gives you peace.
@@elainew2230from what I understood she had a gene mutation that would have been fatal no matter what 😢
She was so beautiful. It’s unfair this disease took this young mother’s life. My dad had lung cancer but was a heavy smoker.
One thing being an RN has taught me, is to just live life and enjoy it the moment. You can do everything right, and still be sick or worse. Wish the best for this person and family ❤
Hope this video also taught you guys to be open-minded and listen to patients. I think that's the biggest lesson in this video and many others
@@carmencarp3594You have to know what to ask and do some research before seeing the doctor. A lot of the doctors would not think of cancer the first thing when they see a young person walking into the clinic. If they see a young person complaining of blood in the stool, they will do a physical exam, probably saying something like hemorrhoids or rectal fistula send you home with the cream maybe a blood test. They will not send the person to colonoscopy right away especially the bleeding is not significant. People with no medical background will just listen to whatever the doctor tell them.
( By the way if it is bleeding from the hemorrhoids it will stop within a week) otherwise it could be something more serious. 😮
@@carmencarp3594it will carry happening because the long and short of It is most doctors don't care, their needs, those of their colleagues trump their patients needs, I had my pneumonia and Sepsis missed by one GP practice and PMR missed by another. Both practices covered up their mistakes.I now have a private naturopathic doctor, I might pay but he cares about and does the best for his patients.
Who else still comes back to the beginning of Jenny’s journey? I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone as strong as her. Praise God that she had Kyle…he was/is a rock!!
🙏🏼💕🙏🏼
Jenny, it is 10/6/23 and I've recently found your channel. I've watched all of your more recent videos but this one was recommended to me and so I watched even though it is 2 years old. I want to say that you are beautiful and strong and you've been such a fighter through all of this. I will pray for you to have the strength and grace and comfort you need on this journey.
Same here but 10/25/23 so I am catching up! My nanny (2015-80 years old) and husband (2021-52yeaes old) both passed from the same cancer both smoked since they were very young. My nanny had the cancer removed by lobectomy and tonsillectomy and did not treatments when she was 76 and it returned 3 years later. She lived almost a year with no treatment. They had told her she might gain 1 year but it would be a rough year of treatment to gain that other year. She was very lucky to be relatively healthy and felt pretty good until the last month. She ended up having showers of mini strokes and survived that about a week and passed with a bigger stroke. I was glad the pain and suffering didn’t linger on and on. My husband has a bunch of abdominal surgeries due to a ruptured ulcer and abbess’s. After 4 surgeries and a rough year and severe weight loss his back and hips were hurting him and just weren’t getting better so we inquired, a scan was done and blasting lesions were found on the pelvis. A bone biopsy was done quickly and we were expecting prostate cancer because his dad had it , but we’re were shocked with news it was stage 4 lung cancer that had already spread to the pelvis, spine, collar bone and tailbone. He was a horrible patient, still smoked, did eat right, was already down about 75lbs, was addicted to pain meds due to chronic pain for 15 years, didn’t sleep regular, just over all stubborn and non compliant. But we did radiation and chemo, he continued to lose weight. Ended up going from a man that was 6’3” weighing about 220 to 130lbs and was nothing but bones and that was so painful. He could never take his pain meds correctly and I felt terrible fighting with him over because he did have cancer and it was in the bones and extremely painful. But the doctor literally wouldn’t have ever been able to give him enough meds! It was that bad. It ended up spreading to his liver and ribs and he was in so much unmanageable pain we talked to hospice and we had decided that he was going to sign up with hospice and I honestly think that finally coming to that decision and being so tired of the pain he was at peace with his decision and he actually passed away in his sleep that very next morning. He fought his cancer almost a year from his diagnosis. I hate lung cancer for taking 2 of the. People that I loved the most in this world and I am so sorry you are going through this. My prayers are with you, your husband and children and extended family! It is so very hard to watch your loved one be in pain and suffer. I pray your good days outweigh you bad and you get to enjoy your babies much longer than the doctors think! Sending love and prayers.

Your beautiful family and sharing Jenny’s cancer journey has been a true inspiration for more people than you can possibly imagine. Specifically the grace and honesty you have displayed amidst such difficult and emotional situation has been courageous and encouraging at the same time. Praying for peace and comfort as you all transition to a new life.
Yeah. What a rip to see her go from this video to 'now'.
@@AtheoPaganWiccan I thought the exact same thing :(
@@csnr1227 let's hope science can do something really fast-finger's crossed....
So, today is 8th Nov 2023 and I just learned we lost our beautiful Jenny on the 5th. I'd never seen this video before. When I came across Jenny's channel was just before she shaved her hair off and she knew she was terminal. but was about to start a new clinical trial.
She's unbelievably beautiful and graceful. What a loss! Cancer sucks! Her husband and family are broken-hearted. But she's free from pain and sadness at last. And the love she gave and received, she took with her to cherish until they are reunited again.
🥰😘🌹Honey, it’s been 2years now since you made this video and I just want you to know how proud I am of you sweetheart, SOOOO proud. You’re a Class act, all the way! You’re very Brave, have Dignity, Poise, and are still stronger than you probably know. I love you my Dearest Sister in Christ Jesus. Love love love love love YOU! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
If any doctor refuses to do a mri, go to the emergency room and they will do it there. Make up a story because my dads dr refused to do one before it was too late
This is so sad that your symptoms were brushed off! Shortness of breath along with rib pain should have warranted diagnostic testing of your lungs the first time you went in. Goodness, I wish you weren’t suffering through all these treatments. Wonderful you have so much support in your family. 💕🙏
I'm so sorry for everything you have had to go through: denial of your symptoms, inadequate testing, lack of pain management. I am a nurse and it's painful to me to see someone suffering. Sending you healing thoughts and hoping your care from this point on is competent, timely, and most of all supportive and compassionate. xo
Sadly, Jenny died on November 5th.
Thank you for letting us know. My heart goes out to her husband and family.@@lisasharf1442
Wishing you all the best in your cancer battle. Unfortunately regardless of your diet, environmental factors and how well you take care of yourself anyone can get cancer. The unfair thing is that sometimes there just isn’t an answer for so many people including my beloved mom. Prayers for your health.
Thank you for the prayers.
@@jennyapple4704 You're welcome. Thinking of you
And it's strange how some people can abuse their health and chain smoke for decades and not get cancer.. My gran is a good example. She's nearly 90 and has chain smoked several packs a day since her 20's. Weird
The Dimming is a Documentary about Geoengineering taking place on the Planet I just seen it on You Tube , Engineers risking it all to let us know.
@@erebusagarista8031
Lung cancer is caused by gene mutations. Genes can be affected by many things both environmental and genetic.
Smoking damages the lungs but so do particles in the air, for example, dust, car fumes etc. People who work with dangerous chemicals or items such as asbestos, are also carcinogenic.
We don’t really know and cannot predict who will get cancer. Who does, and who doesn’t get lung cancer is overall down to luck at the moment.
85% of people living with lung cancer are non-small cell cancers. Over 300,000 cases are diagnosed every year and of course, not all lung cancer patients are or have been smokers. While people who smoke are of course damaging their lungs on a daily basis which makes them more susceptible to developing gene mutations, it’s not guaranteed that everyone who smokes will develop those gene mutations.
I've been watching Jenny for awhile and I've always wondered how she looked with locks and she is absolutely stunning. Then and now, she is a beautiful soul. I'm praying for you all.
My mom had the same cancer! My mom also put up a great fight! She passed away in 2012 at the age of 63. Stay strong!! Jenny is in the best place anyone could be looking down over you and the kids! RIP Jenny!
Non smoking lung cancer? I’m so sorrt
Yes - thank you! @@brittneylyntalks
I know I should wait to get control over my rage, but I truly hope Jenny’s original doctor hears about her CZcams channel and reads these comments! I’ve spent the last 2 years watching this absolutely beautiful young mom and wife suffer through the most horrific treatments in order to have more time to spend with her precious children and unbelievably supportive & loving husband. Tragically, her poor little body wore out, and this cruel world lost a true gift from God. And why is this perfect little family now forced to face a life without her in it? Because for over a year, her doctor adamantly refused to listen to her complaints and concerns, despite the fact that she knew her body better than anyone else, and she was worried! Not to mention, she was an educated, health-conscious, young woman who was exhibiting obvious pulmonary distress. Rather than simply order a routine chest x-Ray, he completely ignored her requests, trivialized her fears, and treated her based solely on his own guess work. This arrogant, irresponsible, callous narcissist should be sued for medical malpractice, and he should not be allowed to practice medicine on another human being. Because of his recklessness, Jenny’s once treatable cancer spread too far to cure, and that beautiful angel was forced to suffer though years of devastating treatments which assaulted her body so badly, she wasn’t able to truly enjoy the little time she had left with her children and her family! Not to mention, her husband is not only faced with a future without the love of his life, he’s going to have to find childcare for his two traumatized children who have been raised with a stay-at-home mommy! There is no excuse for what this doctor put this family through, and he should be held accountable for the misery he caused!
When a person mentions breathing issues and pain in the chest a GOOD doctor would do some kind of diagnostic test - chest X-Ray, pulmonary testing, chest CT scan or MRI chest scan ....something, anything to at least begin to explore possible lung issue. And you can see the cost of being "too nice" or a "people pleaser." Frankly, a lot of doctors just do the bare minimum these days. And even in this case the ER nurse wanted to block you from getting the MRI. Good for being pushy.
I purposely go to a doctor rotation Clinic. I get a new fresh faced excited resident yearly. You are able to go to one visit and cover anything you want. If I want a chest scan they give it to me, if I want bloodwork they give it to me, if I need to discuss mental health and medication, they give it to me. They sit down and they say, what do you need from this visit? It has changed my whole perspective on doctors and care.
@@justlivin8629 where do you find this type of clinic?
They don’t
@jennyapple I agree yet my doctor has referred me for further tests but there's a waiting list. Got a slightly hoarse voice, some ache (not pain) in left lung, indesgestion and breathlessness etc.
I’ve learned through experience that doctors usually like to be reactive and not proactive, and that is a problem.
What a sweetheart she was. I'm sad she's gone.
My heart absolutely breaks for you, Kyle, and your family. So sad to just see this after viewing your latest video of saying your goodbyes in the hospital. Life is such a letdown sometimes, for everything it can be and more, I absolutely feel so much for you and your family. Godspeed girl, praying for some thing better than what it is now. All the best to you.
Dear Jenny thank you so much for posting your journey. You are such a sweet angel and I've been watching your videos but never saw this first one until today. I wish all the very best for you and your family. They are so lucky to have you and you them. I wish I could do something to help you but there is nothing so I will pray for you. You are the loveliest person!
I’ve been following your story. It is so tragic that your requests for scans were ignored. You are brave and an inspiration to this of us with NSCLC. Thank you and sending you positive thoughts. ❤
I stumbled on your channel a year or so ago, and have watched your journey since then. I am just so sorry. You are a beautiful person. Thank you so much for making me appreciate my life, and my life with my kids.
It's hard going back to watch these videos knowing all the pain that would come.
Jenny, you are so sorely missed.
Your current videos have popped up for me for a while now. I guess maybe I started watching about 6 mo ago, but I never went back to your past videos. Today this popped up. Watching back, I see your shock, but I also see your strength. You are so powerful Jenny. I’m sorry this is your journey. I am not religious, but I pray for your healing.
Watching this now with the situation at the hospital makes me brutally sad. So smart and well spoken and beautiful. Ellis upside down and her smile is what i want to remember!! So much love from Florida during this terrible time. ❤
Your wife will soon be a beautiful angel . So sad to watch this video! Jenny is beautiful inside and out and she is one of a kind special lady . She will be missed by everyone that has had the pleasure to be graced by her . Watching her be soo strong and so unselfish through this journey . She fought with such bravery . May her passing be beautiful with no suffering.
Jenny you are absolutely beautiful. Ive been watching your updates since your cancer journey began. I saw your latest live....
Just know you have THOUSANDS of people out here praying and wishing good things for you. You are a fighter, thats for sure. Whatever awaits you Jenny, just know you left your mark here on this Earth.
Hi Jenny,I have been following you for a few months after first seeing you on CZcams. I think you are amazing dealing with this dreadful illness & I keep you in my prayers. I see a strong woman doing her very best to survive & you cope with whatever is thrown at you. It's good to cry & release emotions ,there's nothing wrong with that at all. You have a loving husband,2 beautiful children,family & friends to help support you...not to mention your dogs! Keep strong & fight the good fight my love. Pauline,from England X
I too watched Kyles video last night and was in tears throughout it. My heart goes out to Jenny of course but also to her wonderful husband and beautiful children. Kyle you have been a rock for Jenny throughout this and always remember that she knew you were there for her since day one. It must be so difficult for you with this worry over your beautiful wife whilst looking after your two children as well. I hope that Jenny continues to be pain free and know that you are in a lot of people's prayers xx
It is so infuriating how doctors brush aside or not take seriously issues that patients bring up. Good job pushing for the MRI scan. I saw your more recent videos and am heart broken. I truly wish you and your family all the best.
Right!?! The Drs need to have the shame rubbed in their face but by the point of actual diagnosis the patient has other things to think about than booking another appointment and saying to the Dr ' so that thing you said was nothing? Well it is cancer dickwad'
Find a new doctor. A caring doctor will listen to you.
RIP Jenny. You popped up in my CZcams suggestions yesterday and I'm glad it did even though you're gone. You're a lovely person. Sending love to your loved ones ❤
Thanks for the video on the symptoms before the diagnosis! A shower of blessings, and a big hug!
Thank you so much
Kyle I am so sorry for your loss! We were all so lucky to have Jenny in our lives! Thank you for sharing her with all of us! She did beat cancer and she did he beautifully 🩷
I just found your most recent video a few hours ago and have been catching up. Thank you for so bravely sharing your story and thanks to your husband for so openly sharing what it’s like for a spouse to go through this as well. Sending every ounce of healing and love I have, from Texas. You really are an angel. ❤❤
She was so strong and graceful! I'm glad she can rest now, she finally beat cancer.
I have viewed your most recent videos but hadn't seen the beginning of your journey until now. I am so very sorry that they didn't catch your cancer sooner. How shocking for you since you take such good care of yourself. Saying prayers that your continued treatments help you & that you remain strong. Hugs, Jenny.❤
I am literally pissed that this wasn't taken seriously EARLIER. I love your family.
Oh Jenny you’ve touched my heart so deeply and I won’t forget your courage to live through this disease… May you rest in peace beautiful lady-praying for Kyle, Ellis and Winnie and your whole family… lots of love from Canada
Such a lovely human… so kind…so beautiful… she has touched us all. Thank you, Jenny and Kyle… we will never forget you. xx
No words.... I wish I could give you a big hug. You were and are Jenny's hero. God bless you and your beautiful children. May your memories carry you through this horrible time. Prayers and love sent your way. 💔
Just rewatching the first video I saw of your sweet Jenny. She was so strong throughout her fight. I’m glad she finally ‘beat cancer’. My heart goes out to you and your family❤
Omg that is the cutest little boy I've ever seen! And he looks exactly like your sweet husband 🥰
How precious you & your beautiful family are. You're a lucky girl!
I know you are going to be fine and you'll enjoy a full, joyful lifetime with your lovely family.
Miss you so much Jenny …I’ve been following only a short time but feel like I’ve known you forever ….your vulnerability & gentleness & wholesomeness …..yes HELPFUL your videos are beautiful
Jenny your story has inspired me to stand up for myself with doctors. I too am just like you, i always go with the flow. But ive been having pain near my gallbladder, chest pains, heaviness in my arms and now migraines were i feel like out of body experience. They keep telling me everything is normal but never ran any ct scans anywhere. Watching your story has inspired me. Im so sorry for the doctors failing you. You are such a brautiful warrior and i will pray that you find peace in your transition. I can tell you theres more after death bc ive had a near death experience, and jenny its so beautiful on the other side.
You are amazing! You have a beautiful soul. And you and your son are adorable. Thank you for sharing your story. I am going through a similar situation and to see your peace and courage was inspiring. May God guide you and bless you.
Awe, you are so sweet. Thank you so much! I hope you are doing as well as you can be in your situation. Sending love your way 💕
Oh Jenny. My heart goes out to you. I was also diagnosed with Cancer in my lung how ever mine was "Muco epideomoid carcinoma". My story mirrored yours so much that I have goose bumps listening to you speak. When I was pregnant my sats were always low and I couldn't breath. I kept being told it will resolve the minute the baby is out. It didn't and I began to hear wheeze and pops and clicks in my lung and having pain. I went back to doctors and the ED over and over for over a year because in my heart I new something was wrong and I am a nurse. I had many chest scans but my cancer didn't show up on regular scan as it was in the main branches of my lung. In the end I started coughing up blood and ED still kept sending me home. In the end I went every single night, and told them I was going to continue doing so until someone told me what was going on, which finally resulted in them manually examining my chest scans with a respiratory physician. I have never smoked, don't drink, eat well, and also had a one year old at the time. I was SO scared and could very much relate to your panic phase. I am going okay now, and so far clear but I wish I could give you a big hug. Once a nurse told me she would pray for me when I was in despair, I'm not religious but it comforted me in a way I couldn't imagine. I will pray for you in the way I know prayer and continue to do so. Wishing you positive energy and light x
RIP Jenny. You came across as a lovely lady and your children are a credit to both you and Kyle.
What a brave woman and family. To hear such news and only want to help others with such grace. This adventure has ended but you will go on. Thank you. So much love to all those who loved her. You won!! You're cancer free. You will be missed but never forgotten.
Thank you so much for sharing this, I'm sure this has, and will continue, to save many who don't know what symptoms to look out for. Doctors really need to listen to their patients. We have a sort of sixth sense that tells us when something's not right. Praying for a full recovery.
Doctors don’t want you to tell them what to do. They think they know 😢
This is so heart breaking, to know that this could have been caught and treated so much sooner, and maybe a different outcome. You're in my prayers, Jenny. We love you ❤
From what I understood she had a gene mutation that would have been fatal no matter what 😢
@@romanaabo3664Yes, people have difficulty grasping that some cancers are bound to be fatal no matter how early they are discovered.
@@romanaabo3664 right but every person is different
This video just popped up for me after watching the last 2 videos. Wow, what a strong, beautiful woman you are Jenny ❤
Imagine if doctors tested for cancer first.
Cancer is very time sensitive, but they test for every other thing first. Imagine how many cancers would be caught early.
This. Very nearly the same thing happened to my mom. She had a lump removed from her breast in Oct of 2019. As early as January 2022, she began complaining of pain in her chest (a burning, pulling sensation she always said) and pain across her shoulder and arm. She was told after doing preventative chemo and radiation in early 2020 that radiation on the chest can cause damage to ligaments and muscles, which can cause chronic pain in the area on and off. She visited her doctor a couple of times that year and was told likely that was the source. She did the heat/cool treatments to ease it and laying down frequently (she always said it hurt more being upright and pulling down.) It wasn't until 2023 when she began to be sick constantly (frequent nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath, acceleration of pain in the chest, bad fatigue) that she demanded to have all the scans or ultrasounds available. The cancer returned and spread; it had attached to the breast bone. That was the source of the pain. Spread to liver, lungs and brain at Stage 4 when they finally found it. She was diagnosed officially August 9 2023 and was too weak from having been sick so long to do treatment. She opted not to after a lot of discussion and tears. She just passed Oct 7 2023. It still makes me mad to think of it.
@@christenm3200 I'm sorry to hear that. Medicine needs to do better.
@@christenm3200 I'm so sorry. May your mother rest in peace.
@EmoryStudy Thank you. For sure they do! I understand sometimes resources are limited and as sad as that is, it's no one's fault but advocacy needs to be 10000x better.
@Potatocheesebread Thank you so much ❤️
What a noble thing to do Jenny. Bravo for your willingness to share.
I just watched your gentle weaning video. I thought you were a wonderful person and a very kind mother. I am praying for your health and a long happy life :)
Thank you so much! That means so much 💗😭✨
thank you jenny, you saved lives by urging us to get a scan if something feels off..you were a hero , you literally saved lives, bc of you im having a scan of my stomach , something is very wrong and it sounds like cancer..i pray it isn't but thank you bc of you i insisted on one when told by my dr it's prob just constipation..i remembered you and asked for the scan,,i love you jenny , i'll never forget you...
I hope all goes well for you. 🙏🏻
@@lisasharf1442 aww thank you .
Any updates? I pray you are okay
i was a perfectly healthy 14 year old in feb 2016, by june i had stage 4 alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma with distant mets. i can remember the feeling of constant fatigue and breathlessness pre diagnosis. it’s incredibly scary. i can also relate to the drs dismissing me because of how healthy i looked, ignored my obvious lumps. the second i felt my lump i knew it was cancer idk i just could tell. i am now 2.5 yrs in remission after a relapse but i’m remaining positive.
Oh I love this🙌🏻how easily doctors dismiss us because of young age or what not….but we know our bodies and are our best advocates!
God bless you! So happy you are doing well!!💕
@@danielleiapalucci1693 yes the first dr i saw when i went to the er for cancer symptoms was more concerned with my appearance. he pulled my mom aside and said “if she doesn’t like the way she looks in a bikini in a few years we can remove the lump”. talking about a 14 year old girl… some drs are in it for all the wrong reasons and it’s hard to trust them.
@@saulgoodman8063 wow 🤦🏻♀️I don’t doubt it….you’re so right
My prayers are with you
what a beautiful, beautiful soul you were, I came here looking for education to help me with the new DX of my sisters stage 3 uterine ca and found you. How lucky I was to witness a true angel on earth. I am a nurse of many years and I have Never seen anyone like you ever, your faith and love for your family and others shined. Your videos are a testament to all, when Kyle is ready I hope he carries on your fight. I also hope he carries on his journey with life after Jenny. Your one of Gods angels now. I miss you Jenny
We went through this same experience with my father in law. He was a very healthy 73 year old that spontaneously lost 20 lbs in 2 weeks, localized pain in his abdomen, chest, and back. I had to beg for an abdominal ct scan. Long story short he had stage 4 Mets to the lungs, kidneys, retroperitoneal area, liver and mediastinum. We were devastated. He had been to the doctor several times with concerns prior.. and no one would listen. He passed away at.Home with us 8 wks after his scan. Praying for you Jenny and everyone else fighting.
We love you Jenny. We are here with you two years later. You have been a true warrior. When you transition into a angel your family will not leave your side. Don’t be afraid. You have made such a impact on all of us that watch you. To never give up. You never did. We will miss you so much!
Your sister is your guardian angel! And so great that you insisted on having the chest checked out and didn’t take no for an answer. 💕💕💕
She really is, thank you
You will be missed Jenny. You have won your fight. I will continue to pray for strength and love for Kyle Ellis and Winnie ♥️♥️🙏🏼🙏🏼
This video was at the top of the list when I signed into CZcams. I know why: because I have been following her journey for most of 2023. I didn't go to the beginning, so I'm glad I can watch it.
Like so many, my heart is broken over the loss of her life, but at the same time, thankful that she's no longer in pain.
Rest easy, Jenny. Thanks for being such a shining light while here on earth.
WOW!! I just thought Id start back at the beginning because I've missed hearing Jenny speaking since she died, but never expected that so many other people would be doing the same thing!! She was as lovely on the inside as she was on the outside!
Truly miss Jenny, she helped me cope and understand the passing of my best friend a year ago with lung cancer. She almost made 5 years. Thank you so much Jenny ❤
Everyone I know who has had cancer had at least one doctor in the beginning tell them they didn’t have cancer.
Can't believe this was 2 years ago that she got diagnosed. She was so brave through her journey, always positive, happy, and loved her kids and husband. You sure are missed, Jenny 😢
Damn man, this is heartbreaking. This family is incredibly strong. Sending love and prayers ❤
Absolutely heartbreaking 💔 so sorry you’re going through this. I also had to diagnose my own heart condition. The first specialist I was sent to belittled me, said I was wasting his time and I should have taken an antacid. I cried in the car for a few minutes before driving home. I insisted on seeing a cardiologist and good thing I did or I’d be dead now. The thought of leaving my dog was terrifying. I know it’s not kids like you have but he’s my baby, my world. I’m single and he only has me. My goal now is to outlive him. He’s 12. Your kids are amazing and I totally understand your fear about leaving them. 😢 Praying that doesn’t happen. Damn cancer it’s just so unfair. I watched a few of your more recent videos and you were worried about how your hair looked, I thought you looked absolutely beautiful. Sending love and hugs. ❤❤
I fully understand your love and concern for your puppers!
So glad you listened to your intuition! Best of luck with your heart condition. I know your fur baby needs & wants you around❤❤
