    The purpose of my channel is to document my cancer journey to look back on, and/or help anyone else going through anything similar. It is also to potentially help loved ones supporting those who are in this fight as well. This is also an easy way to update a lot of people at once. My main goal is to have footage of this journey for my husband and children to look back on. I originally created this channel as a sort of video diary for my
    family.
    Thank you so much for following along on this journey. Your love and support help me so much.

    In 1974 my father died of cancer at age 45. I still remember he sat each of us down individually and I was last. (I'm the 10th) I was only 6 but I understood. He told me he would not be able to be there for my life but he really wished he could be. He said he was sad he would miss my graduation, my wedding, my child being born etc. He told me "All through your life you will feel my hand on your shoulder". That conversation proved very important. Because he had the conversation with me, I always felt him with me. He HAS been there for me through my life. Those words have been the hand on my shoulder when I needed it. Just knowing he loved me kept him with me. PS On the subject of a 6th sense, I went to school one day and a nun asked me why I was staring at the clock and not paying attention. It was 9:45 am I looked at her and said "My daddy just died." I FELT it through my solar plexus and just knew. Some years on the anniversary of his death I suddenly look at the clock at 9:45am. You handled this so well. You are and will always be, a beloved wife, mother, sister and friend. Love is forever.

    Retired psychologist here who spent the early years of my career working with children. You asked for suggestions and here are a few. Kids are amazingly resilient. As time passes, they may appear to forget what you told them. They live in the here and now and are at an age where they barely have a concept of death. For them, six to nine months is a long time. Some denial will set in -- which is very adaptive for them. They need to continue to be children, free of adult burdens. They need to have their own process. This is an enormous amount for them to handle. If they don't mention your death again, it doesn't mean they've forgotten. Its the only way they know how to cope with the enormity of this news, as well as the underlying fear that they will lose their dad too. They will at times just seal it off--kind of like putting it in a box and out of sight. They will proceed with their lives--they will continue to play, act up, make messes, make noise and just be kids. That is normal and that's what they need to do. They may also have questions that pop up now and then, especially the older child. Above all, they need ongoing reassurance that after their mother passes, whenever that happens, they will continue to be safe, loved and cared for, and that their Dad will be there for them for a very, very long time.

      I totally agree. As a counsellor of children myself I echo what you have said Francesca. Death is a concept that young children do not understand . Time also is something that barely exists when you are very young. If they see you the next morning Jenny, to them, all is well and the world is as it should be. Time enough to deal with loss for them, for now try and focus on the 'one day at a time' living and they will do likewise.

    My father died in a plane crash when I was two years old. I was never told that he died or what happened. I was just left to try and figure that out for myself, as I called out to him every time the door slammed, which was how he arrived at home every day. Later my mother said that you couldn’t talk to a two year old about death. I am 80 years old and to this day I carry the effects of that time. I just discovered this video a few months after you posted it. I am filled with admiration and love and appreciation for you both for the incredible gift you gave your children of the truth. Your story has a rare beauty in its sadness that reaches deep inside my soul. Blessings to you all.

      That was my parents solution too, dont tell me for my own good. Keep me in the dark until its too late. Made me confused when things happened all at once as a kid and looking back makes me godamn angry to this day. No one told me my Aunts cancer had returned, no one thought to tell me it was terminal and she was on a clock. No one in my family thought to tell me my Great Grandma was going down hill until all of a sudden she was in hospice. I absolutely wouldve carved out time to talk to her one last time, ask her questions about her experience as a Rosie the Riveter in WWII (which apparently no one else thought to do) and then boom she is dead before I know it. So frustrating. Just be honest with your kids and tell them stuff.

    My son Will, passed when he was 12 years old in 2018. There was a story we read together called The Water Bug Story..by Dorothy Britt. It's such a great story about the transition from life. It's a children's story but it also brought me great comfort. He also left me a to do list of things he wanted me to do after he left, and he secretly made charms with his fingerprints on them and had them sent to me after his passing with the help of one of his hospitals. He was very thoughtful and kind. I do think those things help the ones that are left behind to have things to hold onto....I'm sorry that this is happening to your family its very hard to know that you have a set amout of time...anticipatory grief is very challenging and scary.... It's good to be honest with children they know and catch onto alot more than most ppl think.

    Retired school psychologist here. I’d recommend sharing your prognosis and the kids’ knowledge of it with their teachers and school counselors/psychologists this fall. A lot of times kids vent their big feelings about stressful family events when they are at school (and conversely vent school stressors at home). This will allow the teachers to be understanding and extra supportive. It will also have them keeping an eye out for particularly difficult moments/periods and sharing their observations with you. I think you’ve mentioned in the past that the kids are doing some therapy individually or as a family. I really feel this is essential.

      Amen! So well said, and I completely agree! They are my family, that’s how I see it. I have never cried so many tears (especially since I usually don’t cry easily) or grown so emotionally attached to people I technically “don’t know” via UA-cam videos. People talk a lot these days about para-social relationships, but this feels so different. I genuinely love and care about this family like they were my own.
      It’s difficult to describe, but it feels like there is a spiritual element to it. Like God has gathered this community together to help support this family through it all, knowing this community would be greatly needed. He knew what this journey would entail, and wanted this incredible family surrounded by as much love, faith, support and prayers as possible. I’d say that was a success.
      I’m certainly not going anywhere. I will forever remain part of this community. While I do hope Kyle continues making videos, I understand if he doesn’t. That said, my support and prayers for their family will never go away, even if Kyle doesn’t continue with the videos. I’m here to stay, and will support in ANY way that is needed at ANY time. We all will. 💕🙏🏻✝️🌻

At 3, an age many kids don't understand what death is, she seems to know. She's wise beyond her years. Perhaps the higher power made it so, so with her sensitivity she never forgets her sweet memories with you. Your son is amazing, as well. He's so compassionate and kind. I saw him put his hand on you as you hugged Winnie. He's just so thoughtful. They have so much love for you, so much love to give the world.

      I’ll add you to my prayers & ask for complete healing. The path before you must be filled with a lot of uncertainty. I myself and I’m sure others would love to share information to possibly help - things others have done to cure themselves. But it will be deleted as usual. I’ve tried to share it with Kyle & Jenny - but YT deletes it within mins of posting. One is a man who cured the exact same cancer she has and is alive today after given just months to live. He can be found if searched for.
      Don’t be afraid to step out of your box to at least learn what others have done to help themselves when the medical profession has given up. Some have used ‘repurposed’ medicine while detoxing at the same time. Even just posting their name is flagged & deleted.
      I do know absolutely without doubt, where I’ll go when I take my last breath. And it will be far greater than anything I experienced here on earth. Have you heard of NDE’s? My father had it happen to him when a 70ft house trailer fell on him. He physically died under that trailer, but his soul/spirit was sent back. His story is amazing. He went to heaven. Only the Lord knows why he was returned. I’ve read hundreds of stories about this and it’s given me great peace about it all. I believe that if we get past our fears of death, we can begin to see more clearly. But I do know if you first put EVERYTHING in the hands of Jesus, all else will come easier. ❤

      “The scientists discovered, through trial and error, a product in their canine product line, fenbendazole, that was batting 1.000 in killing these different cancers in the mice. The scientist was later diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer and was given a grim prognosis of only three months to live. She decided to try the fenbendazole, and after six weeks, showed a clean scan.
      Joe Tippens had been initially diagnosed with small cell lung cancer. The cancer later spread to his neck, right lung, stomach, liver, bladder, pancreas and tail bone. Like the scientist from Merk Animal Hospital, Joe was told he only had three months to live.

      So true. Let's face it. We all start dying the moment we are born. Living in our modern world has become so easy, relatively speaking, that we forget how fragile life is. We're naive or delusional to think that old age is guaranteed. It's not. Nor should it be. Some people live short lives, others live long lives. And let it be said that a long life is not always a blessing. So we play the hands we are dealt and make the best of what life throws at us. I can speak with some experience regarding young children and a mother's cancer. My mom died at age 36 of a metastasized leg tumor that was undiagnosed in 1960, and eventually, cancer spread throughout her body. I was 5 years old at the time, and my sister was 4. I honestly don't have any actual memories of her, so I doubt your very young children will retain many, if any, first-hand memories of you. Of course, the rest of your family can keep you alive in their hearts by retelling family stories, sharing pictures, etc. It's nice that we live in a video age so your voice and mannerisms have been recorded for posterity. The parenting mantle will pass from you to Kyle, and life will go on.

      @@dianeturner9503 That's your personal experience. I was 5 when my father died of lung cancer, and I have many wonderful memories of him. The videos that I have help a lot as well. Their original GoFundMe info from March 2022 says Ellis is 6 and Winnie is 2, meaning that Ellis may be 7 already, or will soon be, and Jenny mentioned in this video that Winnie is 3. But she even says Winnie is 4 when she's talking about Leo, the baby they lost, so I'm not sure. But honestly, you have no idea how much they'll remember, and saying to a dying mother that her children probably won't remember her is a pretty harsh thing to say.

      Yvonne hope you see this, death is not the worst thing he'll is people don't turn the life over to Jesus Christ with a short time we all have left they're going to miss Heaven. The word of God says so God cannot look on sin Jesus died on the cross to save us all I know I'm not Catholic I was nothing before Jesus save me maybe someone's told you the gospel I don't know but like I said I was singing in a bar country music but that was after my daddy died he was from West Virginia and he taught me to play guitar and sing he died when I was 19 about myocardial infarction he was only 45 years old I hope he's in heaven I know his mother is because I let her to Christ which it was 83 years old that's what people have to make sure they know what they were to die today would they be in heaven. To believe the gospel means to repent Jesus took your place on the cross he was a scapegoat for you how many would die on the cross it's awful painful isn't it? What the Son of God did it for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. I hope you I hope you turn today Yvonne to Jesus and each one of us can have a hope that death cant touch.

    I hadn’t followed this family until I saw kyles video today randomly pop up in my suggested videos. Strange thing is, I have no idea why, seeing as this isn’t remotely close to the videos I commonly watch. However, I truly believe the universe works in mysterious ways. After watching the video Kyle uploaded of your passing, (and yes, I know she won’t ever read this comment but I’m still addressing it to her,) I was motivated to watch more of your videos because I thought, ‘this woman must be incredibly special seeing how genuinely heartbroken and emotional but strong her husband is when speaking about her.’ So I did, and through those videos, this one especially, all within just these last couple hours, I realized I finally have the strength to leave a toxic marriage that isn’t serving my children and I because witnessing this love, the love for your kids, and the absolute heartache one would feel knowing their time was limited with their children made me realize life really is too short to be anything but happy, present, and the best possible mother and human without the stress of any toxicity blocking that happiness. Thank you, even in your afterlife, you just helped a complete stranger wake up to what truly matters most in this world.

    lost my dad at age 3 and my mom when i was 17, both to cancer. it sucked so much to be an orphan at that age. it's important anyone gets the right support after or even before a close person's passing, therapy and all. we all want kids to be kids, but not everyone can afford such a luxury. i had to grow up really fast, which lead me to not really connect with my peers, but i'm still very responsible (and some may say uptight) for my age. I regret not being involved with my mom's chemo and trying to talk to her more about what she's feeling, because i didn't want to make her think about it and get sad. Family members didn't tell me much. They didn't tell me her last surgery didn't go well. They didn't tell me she was ACTUALLY dying. Every day after i came back home from school i asked them how mom was doing in the hospital, they told me she was better. she wasn't. There's no use "protecting" someone younger from the gravity of the situation. so what if my grades got worse? who cares? they were already affected by the stress of watching my mother wither away for years. I would have visited my mom more in the hospital, maybe i would have even seen her die, something that would have helped me heal.
    I'll stop rambling now. Fight until you can't anymore. It'll be alright. People will be alright. Support is important

As a bereavement counselor I have tried to help families see that these difficult conversations give children time to process what is happening. We often forget that we (adults) are processing the entire time from the moment of diagnosis. When children are kept in the dark, usually to “protect “ them, that time to process and prepare is taken from them. You are doing a wonderful job. In the meantime, I am also praying for a miracle!

      ​@@chazlon5061As a Christian, having been saved by asking Jesus to become Lord of your life, you very much can love someone without "knowing them." Jesus loved me so much that he died on the cross so that I could spend eternity with him!! He did the same for you. All you have to do is accept his free gift. God Bless You ✝️❤🙏🏻

    I've been a silent watcher for more than a year. Thank you for being such open, loving people. Your children are in good hands. And thank you for allowing me (us) the privilege of praying for all of you. It is an honor to be able to lift you up in prayer, to ask God to keep you in his hands, and to ask that his angels surround you and your family, giving you comfort and His everlasting love.

    My tears are flowing 😢I don’t know how you both are getting through this. I’ll never understand why bad things happen to such good people. Like I said before this makes me mad. You guys are such wonderful parents and your babies are blessed to have you. Jenny, they will always have you in their hearts 💕 I can’t imagine how you can even smile. You both are so strong,I admire you both. I feel so ashamed of myself for all of my faults , failures and shortcomings. You both have encouraged me to be a better person and to show kindness to others. Thank you for letting me follow your journey. I’ll pray day and night for you and your beautiful loving family! I’ve loved your babies from day one ❤

      I think the hardest question in life is why hard and painful times happen to good people. Or why some people go through one hard time and storm after another, and others seem to go through life with nothing bad. There’s no real answer for those questions. Though it is possible to find the joy and comfort during those hard times. The imperfect world is full of hurt of all kinds. Just know that you are never alone.

    my mom died when i was 8 almost 9 years old, she was diagnosed with cancer before i was adopted at birth... Neither her or my dad ever talked to me about her diagnosis, although she was always sick around me, she had a machine at home for medication and everything, I was just kind of left out of the loop, and this resulted in a LOT of anger issues for me as a kid because I knew something was up but it was brushed off all the time, and I know it probably wouldn't have been easy knowing what was going on but if i did instead of just being ignored, it would have at least given me an answer. I don't know how it would have affected me honestly, but the way it was handled definitely wasn't good for me at all and I still wonder WHY. So I just wanted to say that it's so important to tell your kids what's going on. Kids DEFINITELY know something is up... kids are smarter than a lot of us adults give them credit for.
