About Me

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 everyone,

Can you believe it is almost Christmas, where has the time got to.I have not been well lately, and have to go into hospital for a neck disection, sounds terrible, like something we did at school.

Hi everyone,

I am back in the land of the living at long last. I was diagnosed with throat cancer and had to undergo a lot of  trearment, the side effects were terrible. I had radiotherepy and chemo which really took its toll on me. I am feeling a lot better since the treatment has stopped, but still have a long way to go to get back to my old self.

I am a positive person so I am sure It wont take to long, with my faith and the support of my children I am half way there already. I also have my knitting which has really helped to keep me busy. If you would like to help with my appeal, please go to my website. http://www.jennychant.co.uk/.

Have a great weekend.

Love,

Hi everyone,

It looks like summer is really here, the weather has been fantastic. I spent a week in Letchworth, and had a great time. Its hard to believe that Christmas and the New Year are long gone. Then it was Mothers Day, I really got spoilt which was great.

The next thing is Easter, where has the time gone, it is quite scary. My advice, just enjoy life and make each day special . Have a wonderful weekend. Speak to soon.

Love,

Jenny. xxxx

HI Everyone,

It is hard to believe Christmas is over, hope you all had a great one. Mine was fantastic. \\\\\\\\  Have you made any New Years Resolutions? I would like to hear what they are. I cant seem to stick to mine, so I am just going to try and be a better  and more understanding person in everything I do.

Hope to hear from all of you soon, about what you think about New Years Resolutions. Are they worth making? or are they a waste of time? Speak to you soon.

Love.
