In times where Jodie is dealing with relapse, illness or hospitalisation, many people like to give meals, practical assistance, etc.  We often find this can be difficult to co-ordinate and sometimes get too many meals, even though they are all great.  If you would like to help Jodie & the family, consider giving through Paypal below, so that the family can hire cleaners & pay for domestic assistance.

Website Enhancement

One of our goals is to get this awareness message and Jodies Journey, out to the masses - more than we currently doing.  Currently we are getting about 3,800 hits per 90 days on this website.  We know that there is more scope to reach more people with awareness about Lymphoma and Blood Cancers.

The dream is to make this one of the best survivor websites available to inspire, encourage and touch as many lives as possible.  If you feel that you would like to help us in this, please contact Jodie or leave a gift to help us with this mission.

• Hey Jodie, I just wanted to say that I think you're fabulous and lovely, and you're always so positive and upbeat, it's intoxicating (in a great way). I wish we lived closer and I could sit and have a cup of tea with you....because I know I would leave a better person after spending time in your company!!

Thanks for forwarding to me your blog.  I must say that you are the MOST inspirational woman I know, I always feel spiritually enriched when I read one of your blogs.  Your sheer determination, your wonderful resilience and disposition leave me speechless each time.  You read as if you handle every obstacle in your life with grace, peace and patience, yet I am sure some days are more challenging than others.  When I read your blog an image of your smiling face flashes before me and I do honestly think “WOW”.

Thank YOU Jodie for all that you share, for your passion for life and for what is right.  If only I can aspire to be half the woman you are I too will experience fulfillment.  You will be in my thoughts and prayers in coming weeks and hopefully those neutrophils will grow.

Thanks again and I look forward to further reading.
