- Hey everyone - we know it has been a while since we posted here on RUclips. Honestly, the last few weeks have been pretty hard on us. We have a lot of updates to share, but we wanted to start with posting some video we took during our first road trip to Mayo Clinic back in July.
Even through all of this, there are still memories to be made and lighthearted moments to share. We'll be sharing Part II of this video very soon and then a more "real-time" health update as well. Thanks for being patient with us and for all of the amazing support. ❤️

In 2006 i was given 4 months to live....here i am 16 years later and cancer free-I know my reason as to why i went through it -to help others see that there is a light at the end of the tunnel....You have all our support and love.... Only the biggest most ginormous hug from me to you-with many prayers and positive vibes!!! xoxoxoxoxoxo
Fasting + Keto ?
I was diagnosed with cancer in 2006 also. They didn't even think I would make it to 50. I'm 52 now, and getting healthier everyday. I have lost over 100 pounds so far. And hope to get below 200 by my next birthday.
Great to hear of those who have beat cancer and outlived life expectancy given by the doctors it's good to prove doctors wrong even though that's not the main reason you have made changes to your diets. Keep it up.
Jessica, my mother had an aggressive ovarian cancer. Over 50 tumors in her lungs, tumors around her ovaries and peritoneal area. Six months later. Tumor free. It was amazing! She had to do chemo for a while, but it never came back. ❤️ So, keep the faith.
Gina, Thanks for sharing such a personal experience. Many will see it, & it’ll bring hope & strength. Miracles! Glad you still have your mother.♥️
When Brian gave you strength in his high five grip, I almost cried. You will be fine. Just remember: genomic sequencing, biomarker determination, personalized immunotherapies!
I have been thinking and praying for you every day Jessica. As a retired nurse who worked in a cancer hospital for many years I can understand a little of how you feel. But I can truthfully say that I have seen miracles happen . God bless you both ❤
I was diagnosed the week after you were. I am happy to follow your progress. I also have an amazing husband by my side. I pray for you often. I know this is scary and painful but we just keep pushing forward.
Sending up prayer for healing for you and Jessica 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Well done for sharing with us.wishing you well soon.
I’m praying for you, Suzan and Jessica, that you are both able to stay strong with the support of your husbands and kick this cancers butt! Praying for you every day now.
Sending healing vibes from southwest New Mexico mountains
Prayers for you too Suzn
Brian is such a blessing! I went through breast cancer treatment in 2016/17 and my husband was not at all like Brian let’s just say 😳. I hadn’t discovered your channel prior to your illness but seeing the love between the two of you is what hooked me 🥰. I continually look for updates because you two are so beautiful together 💞
Same story here and I agree about the love you two share. Brian's support with get you guys through this bump in the road.
Same. Going through a serious health crisis. No compassion from family or at home. Grateful for professional support & love between you, Jess & Brian. You bring hope & inspiration. So glad you have each other. 🥰
You two seem like the nicest people. Wishing for nothing but the best for you. You will get through this. Sending lots of love!
My daughter was diagnosed in 2020 with her cancer and because of the pandemic, had to go it alone to all appointments, infusions..I am glad that is not the case for you and Brian can be there for you...
I’m a Mayo patient here in Wisconsin Jessica. I’m here to tell you that they don’t give up ! I’m happy to that you had a great day !!
Hello there, I am also here in Wisconsin. My first wife dealt with cancer here in Wisconsin and we went to the Marshfield Clinic, which is like connected to Mayo. The service at Marshfield was amazing . This was back in 2009. Not sure if you have heard of it. I can relate obviously more to Brian, it is a different world being in hospitals a lot. I call it Hospital World, because it’s a whole world of sick people that if your not around a hospital, you have no idea how many sick people there really are. I called her my first wife because she did pass away from a deadly uterine cancer. I hope the best for you, this is something I don’t wish on anyone
As a Minnesotan, welcome! I pray you receive the best treatment and are surrounded by nothing but love and support. You guys are such an amazing couple! Jess, you are strong and you WILL win this battle!
Fellow minnisotan here! Welcome!You are in good hands! Mayo is world renowned... Hand clasp was beautiful. You got this Jess!
@@lisaferrin362 Second that! 💯♥️
So pleased to see you both. Been getting worried. Lots of hugs and love xxxx
My cousin’s husband is in a cord blood clinical trial at MD Andersen in TX and he went into remission within weeks of starting the trial 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻. Keep your eyes open for new advances like that ❤️. You guys are the sweetest couple I’ve ever seen 🥰. I’m praying for you every day 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻.
Praying for you Jessica for comfort and a good outcome. Also praying for you Brian. Safe travels as well. ❤️🙏
🙏🙏 💌💌
Mayo Clinic is awesome! My husband had brain surgery as well as having his gall bladder removed and knee replacement. I had a knee procedure and several ER visits. We go to the one in Jacksonville, FL. They leave no stone unturned. The doctors we encountered (esp the neurologists and neurosurgeons) were above and beyond any doctors we have encountered. From calling/texting to check up on loved ones to listening to your opinions and if you "heard" of a test that may help your case, they will order it or at the least research it and get back to you ASAP. It is truly a world class hospital and you are in knowledgable hands. Good vibes sent to you.
Thanks! For all the great content and recipes. My prayers are with you both daily. Complete miraculous healing!
I'm glad to see you feeling less pain. With Brian and Nurse Peef by your side, you're gonna do fine. I've been praying for ya. Stay strong, you've got this.
Guys.. omg , I so happy to see you posting . I can hardly wait for the next video to catch up and see how you both are doing. Jess, I know your going to do great ! And brian.Brian.. your doing such a good job of supporting Jess. Just know there are lots of us that are praying for you. Hope this week is going to be great for you and gives you the answers you need. Can't wait for the next time . Have a blessed day.
Y'all have each other and that's such a beautiful thing! Thank you for sharing the journey with us so we can be there for you with prayers!
The love you have for each other shines through in this video. You both look great. Been thinking of you the last week as you haven’t posted in a while (which is fine, just worried and praying that things are going well). Thanks for sharing your journey with the world.
Thinking of both of you. Big hugs and hope the negatives are all at a minimum. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I continue sending love, hugs, and healing light to you both! SO thankful you were already familiar with the WFPB lifestyle. I truly believe that is what cured my breast cancer. ❤️❤️❤️
Y'all .... I'm a little teary- mainly because I see the amazing love you have for each other. It's so beautiful! 💕💕
We are with you both. When I had Cancer in 2009, My husband loved me through every step of the way just as Brian is doing for you. I have always said …..Cancer shows you if you have married well. These are the times that truly count and it is clear you have Truly married the right man! 🥰
So happy for you. It showed me the way to a divorce attorney.
God bless you Jessica and Brian. I had cancer in 2006. I was treated at Mayo. I'm still here and doing very well. As I listen to your story, my mind goes back to when I was at Mayo. I get emotional too and I cry with you. Sending love and prayers!!!
Praying for you both! My 30 year old daughter remains cancer free! She is an ovarian cancer survivor. Next month she is going to Hawaii for a Victory Trip. The love that you obviously share will get you through this.
May God be with you. Prayers coming your way.
I knew I was missing your faces, but I didn't realize how much until I saw you both again!!!! I know you're probably getting all kinds of advise from everyone, but I have to say one thing: I believe sugar feeds cancer. So starve that X!?#X to death!!!!!! I had a wonderful feeling come across my thoughts today and that was I believe if anyone can beat this, you two can!! I'm sending wonderful, happy, healing thoughts your way! And lots of 💕 and 🤗!!😘
Just want to say you are in my prayers. And to send you this quote I found when I went through my dance with cancer. " Fear knocked at the door. Faith answered. There was no one there. "
I’m so glad you guys were able to momentarily forget about the cancer and enjoy the present moment. You’re both amazing!
🙌💕🙌 keep smiling guys! You're going to smile together, many more years! 🙏🍀🙏
When you (Brian) said, 'then I remember why we're going...' and when you (Jessica) said that you have felt lost at sea the last few weeks and just wanted them to take you under their wing and show you the way, it really hit my heart and helped me get somewhat of a tiny glimpse of how in the world this whole thing might be affecting you. Praying Psalm 91 for you both. Keep Going!! Cheering you on from Indiana!!🙏🙌👏🤜🤛👊💪👆✋☺
I’m so sorry you both are going through this. Sending positive thoughts. Stay strong. 🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔💙
Praying for you! May God give the Team of Doctors the knowledge to heal you! STAY POSITIVE! 🙏
Jessica, im so happy that you have someone by your side every minute, loving you, helping you, protecting you thru all of this. (You are truly wonderful Brian) My heart goes out to all the poor little ducks that must be facing all this fear pain & uncertainty alone.
I’m happy to see you are going to the Mayo Clinic. Praying for you and your healthcare team.
Sending virtual hugs, well wishes and some noms moola to ya sweet peeps.

@@KrocksInTheKitchen oh my goodness! How special!
Greetings! It's great to see you two again! I've been wondering how you were doing. Keep the faith, we're praying for you! Love and blessings ♥️🙏
I had a stent for Kidney stones and I was in bed until I had it out. Yes it scrapes and makes you bleed if you move around too much.
All the best with your treatments.
Glad you were pain free on your trip. 😊
Also ask about apartments. Sometimes cancer centers have accommodations at discounts for their traveling patients. It’s good to see you both.
This looks so cool I found myself thinking, "I WANT TO GO TO MINNESOTA!!!!" oh yeah, for chemo. Never mind.
Jessica and Brian, Praying for you both as you face this challenge together. Praying really hard...
I’m so very sorry that you’re going through this. You have an incredible husband at your side. I believe that your upbeat personality is what’ll get you through this.
Brian looks like a good chaffeur. Your bowls look healthy and delicious. Sending you lots of warm thoughts and well wishes!
My family and I wish you all the very best Jessica for a very successful treatment and praying for a full and permanent recovery for you. Brian, you are a truly wonderful husband and partner to your beautiful wife, I wish you all the very best for your journey beside Jessica through all of this. Lots of love to you both from all of us here in Melbourne, Australia. XXX
So good to see you both. I'm keeping you both in my prayers. You are truly blessed with a loving, caring husband like Brian who is standing so lovingly by your side. Praying for a complete healing for you Jessica and a full restoration of your body to good health once more.

You are reminding me to stay positive as I head to Texas to be with my daughter. She is getting surgery and the outcome is a complete unknown.
Prayers and well wishes. Stay strong through the process and remember you aren't alone.

Krocks in the Tiny Kitchen! Thanks for sharing and lots of good wishes.
Both of you are in my prayers. I have to say, the first thing I thought was, "My God! Their skin looks so healthy and radiant!" I hope that is a sign of great strength and healing potential. You two are a beautiful couple.
Glad you made it there safely and you were comfortable Jessica. Pray all goes well and you get some answers and they make a treatment plan for you soon. Speedy recovery !!!! And wishing you both Well!!!!

You are such a loving couple. I’m praying for you!
God will walk beside you both and hold you in His mighty hands throughout your journey. Bless you both.
I think of you both often. Your positive and determined attitude is going to lead you through this chapter in your life. There are so many people pulling for you, praying for you, sending strength and positive energy your way. Thanks for sharing this journey. I can only imagine how difficult it is but you’ll be able to look back at this time and say “I did that”….”I got through that”. Sending you love.❤️
You guys are so sweet, we love you and hope you get well Jessica
Yo that guitar pick hack is awesome! I also bring my pill sheet to the hospital that clearly denotes what I take, first prescribed date and meds that I had a rough reaction to. If I’m traveling or super busy I’ll take each dose and put them in little baggies labeled with the time. Amazon carries fly fishing organizers that I can get all my regular +PRN meds in
My husband was diagnosed with stage four metastatic melanoma in 2012 and subsequently have made many many trips to Mayo in Rochester. You are absolutely in the right place.
Lots of love and prayers for you 💜 God bless you both ❤
stay strong and get well soon Jessie , from Iraq sending my prayers. 🤲
I have been praying so hard for you both. Hope you have good news
I appreciate your update! I woke up from a nap an hour ago and thought of you both!! And then here is your update!! Praying for your medical staff, and for help plans to get you through this with the LORD's direction! hugs
love you!!! praying for complete healing for you from head to toe!
Jessica & Brian, I know pretty much how you’re feeling right now (being a 17 yr cancer survivor myself and I really feel for you both. My best advice is to have faith in the wonderful and brilliant medical folks to take care of your body and you focus on your attitude. I believe your state of mind has so much influence on how you feel, and staying positive and knowing that you’ll recover is key. Wishing all the best for you!♥️
Thank you for the update. I've been waiting for it!! So glad you're pain is better Jessica🙏🏼💜 you two are so sweet and a force to be reckoned with so cancer doesn't stand chance! Sending prayers and healing energy🙏🏼💜
You two are the kind of people God would love us all to be. You just don't deserve this, but we will boomerang the love you show the world and each other back to you which should work even better than chemo.
