Jon's family did an excellent job raising him. He is gifted, bright and talented but yet down to earth. As he said, we are here temporarily, and tomorrow is not promised to us.
What a beautiful inspiring courageous young woman. So sad to hear her cancer is back. I hope she can beat it again and both her and John have a long life together. The World needs more people like them. 🙏
Wow! Both John Batiste & Suleika Jaouad are extraordinarily people with a rare sensitivity & a profound understanding of Life, pain, hardship, & love!! They are an awesome & amazing couple!!
As a cancer survivor after 15 years on and off of surgeries and treatments, and now 20 years post last diagnosis, I embrace Suleika’s understanding of never healed, but moving on. I look forward to reading her book.
OMG, what a beautiful sharing of an extraordinary experience. Love this young woman and her creativity and strength. Extra bonus finding out she is with Jon Batiste... we adore him and his musical talents. Sending love and hugs to you both.
I always say that it is such an honor to choose ONE person out of the billions of people walking this earth 🌍 to share this sometimes difficult experience of human existence. Too many of us take it for granted. So glad this young woman is healing and found love ❤️
"To say that I'm healed implies that healing is an endpoint... and I think that healing is something that we all will do, for the rest of our lives". Words to live by, for sure.
I think it's pretty lucky and wonderful that these two people found each other, and he was there for her when it mattered. Jon just creamed off 5 Grammys out of 8 nominations, they got married just before that, they've bought a new house with no furniture in it yet (just Grammys so far) and so their life together is off to a pretty good start.
The "between" is rarely spoken of, and I deeply appreciate Ms. Jaouad's eloquence in describing this place. She communicates from a place of wisdom, yet is so humble in her choice to ask strangers for help with her healing process. I know that I can learn from her and will be ordering her book. Thank you CBS Sunday Morning for this important interview.
I know im randomly asking but does anyone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly lost my password. I would love any assistance you can offer me!
I've recently read her book "Between Two Kingdoms" and I am in awe of her courage and the way she just kept going throughout the extreme sickness she was feeling, in what seemed like forever. There was no quit in her game. The book is amazing and a quick read, I couldn't put it down. I had no idea of her story when I bought the book but I'm so glad I ran across it on Amazon. Cheers from Oklahoma to Suleika & Jon! I hope they have many happy years ahead. P.S. Oscar stole my heart :) P.S.S. I have a male cousin in Sarasota, Florida that is 66 and going through this exact diagnosis and on the journey to find good days again - he is a year into the treatment and now on the maintenance chemo drugs.
My feelings exactly I’m living with (battling) stage 4b uterine cancer 90% gone and I’m doing chemo treatments every 21 days thank you and I’m getting your book
What a wonderfully well done story on a remarkable person. I did not know about Suleika Jaouad before I watched this. I now want to read "Between Two Kingdoms," ASAP.
It's nice she had a dog to keep her company on her trip and her struggle. Sometimes it helps to find the words communicate to get through an experience. Not so easy to write a book when you are so ill.
As a breast cancer patient with an RV and a passion for road tripping, this book was a little too on the nose for me! Yet, I enjoyed it and draw strength from Suleika’s.
She is an inspiration to so many! Her relationship with Jon has proven that love sees no boundaries. The combo is a beautiful blending of wisdom, kindness and respectfulness for all. So glad these two have ea h other as soulmates.
Thank you for this!!! CHAMPION ! She met the challenge and exceeded it.....she found PURPOSE in the face of life threatening circumstances and found a way to continue and found 💘
Thank you for doing this story. I so agree with Suleika's final sentiment that life is a journey of healing. This is something I've recently come to understand, though I would put it a little different way: life is a journey to the self, which takes healing in many ways and forms to reach.
What a cool idea to do a road trip to meet and thank strangers who inspired her during her first battle with cancer. May there be an opportunity for her to do a second trip or something else to commemorate her second battle.
Wow Suleika is so so beautiful. God please take care of this girllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll. So is so sweet and living person. Please heal he very soon. Steff in Alaska~
Amazing. I just ordered her book. Sounds like a must-read. Thank you for this piece CBS Sunday Morning, and Thank You Suleika Jaouad...one beautifully brave lady.
I am "pulling" for you, Mrs. Batiste! Isn't that a fun thing to be able to say? I have gotten to know about you and then was interested in finding out more! I am grateful to you for seeking to understand what it is you are to do and then doing it--so far! I pray for many more years- for time- to do what it is you were put here to do. You are absolutely gorgeous, btw, and I hope that does not embarrass you. My daughter, and myself, too, have been bald from the illnesses and the treatments for the types of cancer that we had and it was really something to be that "in touch" with the wind, a breeze, the physical world around me with that act of removing the hair of the head. That was an interesting surprise. Both of my eyebrows went, of course but my daughter found it amusing when she lost hers but only 1 at a time! "Survival is it's own kind of creative act." I love how you put that! Thank you for sharing with everyone. My daughter has left this mortal coil-yet I have survived. My daughter knew herself--she walked with intention-she slow-walked her way through life and watched everything. I knew from the night she was born that she was going to be strong and be "a watcher." I have a picture to prove it! :) So we soldier on! I am very happy that you and John B. found each other. What a fabulous love. That is incredibly special and wonderful. My daughter's experience was the opposite- the man who swore he loved her left. So she sat with that and dealt with it, too, in her own way. I am so proud to have been able to be her Mother. And I am so glad to be able to have this opportunity to reach out to you and give you my support, which comes in forms of thinking, praying and deciding to let that be sent out for whatever it is you need at the moment, according to your own beliefs! Congratulations to your Groom/husband and best wishes to his Bride/wife! May you have many happy and fruitful years to come and live in Light and in Love and in Learning.

"Healing is something we will all do for the rest of our lives." Thank you.
Yap, i was wondering why can't i heal...but it is something makes you...you. Embrace it peacefully.

Two beautiful souls Jon Batiste and Suleika Jaouad. May you both share many happy years together. Thanks for sharing your story.
As a cancer survivor after 15 years on and off of surgeries and treatments, and now 20 years post last diagnosis, I embrace Suleika’s understanding of never healed, but moving on. I look forward to reading her book.
This woman has more power, strength, endurance, and grace than I could ever have. What an amazing woman!
OMG, what a beautiful sharing of an extraordinary experience. Love this young woman and her creativity and strength. Extra bonus finding out she is with Jon Batiste... we adore him and his musical talents. Sending love and hugs to you both.
Is she "with" him? I found that part of the story oddly nebulous. Apparently others did as well.
@@carlwilliams6977 They have been together for ten years.
@@carlwilliams6977 Yes, they have been a couple for years.
@@carlwilliams6977 and they smash nasties
Their married
They are married now. Unfortunately the cancer is back, with a vengeance. Praying she will recover once again.
I join you in this prayer…🙏
🙏🏻
What an incredible courageous and precious soul. She is a gift and example to all of us. May God bless her and Jon with a long, healthy life.
Love them both.
Amen 🙏
Yes they are both incredible 🤗❤️🙏👏💕
Sending love, light and healing prayers to Suleika! What a beautiful couple of kids!
He is a true gem, and she is an inspiration. Many can relate to her experiences. This world is lucky to have them. ♥️
What a story. I wish Suleika and John the very best. To healing.
Such an amazing couple!
"Are you healed?"
Then comes the only truth left... God Bless you Suleika and may you always be as Blessed as you are this very moment. 💛☀️💐
She is my HERO! ❤ Her book literally has touched my heart ❤️ 💙. I'm a Cardiac Survivor. Even though we have different illnesses i can relate. 🫶🫶🫶😭🥺💔
I always say that it is such an honor to choose ONE person out of the billions of people walking this earth 🌍 to share this sometimes difficult experience of human existence. Too many of us take it for granted. So glad this young woman is healing and found love ❤️
I could listen to Sukeika all day.
"To say that I'm healed implies that healing is an endpoint... and I think that healing is something that we all will do, for the rest of our lives". Words to live by, for sure.
Beautiful human, beautiful soul.
A Brave and Inspiring Woman.
I think it's pretty lucky and wonderful that these two people found each other, and he was there for her when it mattered. Jon just creamed off 5 Grammys out of 8 nominations, they got married just before that, they've bought a new house with no furniture in it yet (just Grammys so far) and so their life together is off to a pretty good start.
11 nominations :)
Two gems and beautiful souls. Wishing you everything good in this world ❤️🌹🌹🙏
Such an inspiration!
What a beautiful young woman. Inspirational for sure.

So much wisdom, so much beauty ~ magical combination !

I stupidly lost my password. I would love any assistance you can offer me!
So true that we are all on a healing journey the rest of our lives.
Searching for Suleika after reading her memoir. I cried a lot while reading her book.
I'm 9 years out from a bone marrow transplant for leukemia. My daughter gets married on May 23. Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming.
I adore her! A bright light! So sorry this beast has come back to you! I hope and pray for a healing. From a survivor in Texas!
What a brave brilliant woman!!

Wonderful story. I hope she and John may have a long life together.
It was nice to see them together on camera, even if it was brief.
Praying for her and Jon.❤️🙏🏽🦋
I'm just jealous that her vintage Volkswagen van has that refreshing vent-window...
