This is not just a story about cancer. It’s a story about life and the awful, unfair punches it can throw. It’s about the strength you summon, the love you give, and the crushing weight grief brings. It’s a story everyone can relate to in some way. Beautiful, haunting, and heart-breaking.
Rest easy, Jimmy

Jennifer’s portrayal of her family’s fight against cancer is brave and messy. It’s a beautiful testament to her family and every family’s fight against the disease.
