Update: 4th cycle of chemotherapy made my hair fall out completely.

Hair today, gone tomorrow — but confidence stays. 😉💖

This year has been a year of pause for me. I’ve decided to take a step back from all my plans—travel, projects, and everything else I had in mind—to focus fully on my health and recovery. Chemotherapy has become my priority, and my energy is going toward getting better one day at a time. While it’s not the year I envisioned, I know this break is necessary so I can heal and come back stronger for all the adventures and goals still waiting for me. -JustJessy

Update: May 20, 2025

I’m in the second week of my Course II treatment, and yesterday I had my second lumbar puncture with intrathecal chemo. For those unfamiliar, it’s a procedure where a needle is inserted into my lower spine to collect spinal fluid and deliver chemotherapy directly into it. It sounds intense—and it is—but it’s part of the process to make sure the cancer doesn’t reach my brain or spinal cord.

This morning, I took my nausea meds and, thankfully, I haven’t thrown up. But I am starting to feel headache and some intense pain running from my lower back all the way up to my neck. It’s uncomfortable, but I’m trying to rest, stay hydrated, and keep my body moving gently when I can.

One day at a time.
