About Me
- Jenny Chant
- My name is Jenny and this is my blog. My life was changed forever on the fateful day of 31st March 2004, the day I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I know that there are so many people who are touched by cancer, I am not rich I cannot find a cure but I can knit... So I decided I would like to try and knit the longest pink scarf in the world. I started the Jenny Chant Appeal to help with education and support for sufferers and their families. Since the inception so many things have happened. One thing that I was not prepared for was being diagnosed with cancer for the 3rd time. In August 2008 I was told that I had lip cancer and that I needed to have life saving surgery in case it spread to the lymph nodes in my neck. I am not a vain person but when I saw the scar it made me weep... I now could not hide from my brushes with death. On to my final words of wisdom: my only advice to men and women is always go for check-ups regularly (and inspect yourself), never lose faith and always try to be positive. Jenny

Hi all ,
I am back after a two week break. I believe my blog is to personnel, I write to much about myself and what I have been doing. I am new at blogging, so please give me some advice of what you would like me to write about. I thought blogging was to let people know about my life and what I do, It seems I am wrong in my thinking. HELP I need some input of what you would like to read about.
I did start the Jenny Chant Appeal over a year ago, if you would like to join, please go to my website for all the details. The Appeal is to knit the longest PINK scarf in the world. AS I have suffered with various forms of cancer, it is to help raise awearness and raise funds for men and woman in the poorer countries so they can afford to go for tests to detect the desease in its early stages, and hopefully safe their lives.
I will be doing a car boot and also have a tombola stand to raise funds. It will be held at the BEDWORTH MARKET on Sunday 29th november. Who ever is reading this, please come and show your support, it will be much appreciated, Thank You. My website is. http://www.jennychant.co.uk/

Hi all,
I dont seem to lead a very exciting life,but I am always busy doing one thing or another. When I went into town I met one Rose one of my knitters, we had a good old chat and had coffee at Harrys. Which was lovely.
I am always bumping into someone I know and we have a good old pow wow. I watch quite a bit of tv while doing my knitting. I like watching comedy and the game shows, like deal or no deal and pointless. I had another great day.

Woke up, not feeling to bright, Headachey runny nose etc. I got out of bed did all the usual things we people do. I took some pills and after awhile I felt a little bit better.

I went into the wool shop to say hi to Sarah, who owns the shop and is a drop off point for completed scarves for the Jenny Chant Appeal, which was great.

Hi everyone,
Sunday the weather was perfect, I went to church, the service was lovely they had a christening as well, the church was packed. After church I went home, decided it was such a lovely day I would go and sit in the park. Got out of my glad rags, changed into something more comfy. I packed a bag with some goodies got my knitting and off I was to the park.
I spent a great afternoon in the park, talking to people as they went by. Some people in Bedworth are quite friendly, they stopped to chat and asked me what I was knitting, so of cause I told them all about the Jenny Chant Appeal, Thank goodness I had some pamphlets with me, and handed them out. It was soon time to head off home. Another wonderful day.
Love.

What happened saterday 19th sept.2009.
Hi all,
Nothing very exciting, got up did the usual things, like showering, breakfast etc. I decided to take a walk into town, not very exciting hey! I did see a few people I knew that are helping with the appeal. There were about 6 of us, we decided togo for coffee in a nearby coffee shop. The day started to look brighter after that. It was great sitting and chatting about all kinds of things. After that I took a walk to homebase, looking for some flowers to plant, I didnt have much luck, so went home and got busy with my knitting. Another wonderful day.
Love.

What I did Friday
After the boring job of doing my housework, I made a cuppa, and started knitting while watching tv. I got so involved with my knitting, when I looked, it was tea time. What a wonderful day I had.
Website and things
After a long gap in sending the newsletter, I got myself in gear and we wrote it and then had the long task of sending the newsletter out. This was after all the computers and printer had the usual issues. Why do we have them I keep asking myself. All I wanted to do was contact all the lovely knitters and tell them about how far we had gotten but it always seems to take so long.
I was invited to go on holiday with my Son to the Isle of Lewis, but I still had not finished the task of sending the letters out so I gathered my son and family and we got the job done really quickly. So some of you may have already received a newsletter stamped from the Isle of Lewis.
The website is still a problem but hopefully it is OK.
And only still another 50 letters to send out! And I still wanted to knit today.
Love Jenny
