Almost one year out! Long, with LOTS of pictures!

Jessy - I'm just in awe of your strength, especially in one so young.  Congratulations on your surgiversary, on all your wows & on all those still to come.  You're truly amazing. 

Jessy, you've done fantastic so far but your journey isn't over.  You're going to continue to rock your DS and you're going to hit goal!  I'm so happy for you, chicky!!!

Congratulations on your success! Your an inspiration to a lot of people! You look great!

Ok, pass the freaking Kleenex, I'm all blubbering like an idiot here! 

Jessy, you've always impressed me.  You are such a beautiful, mature, thoughtful, impressive young woman.  I wish I possessed even half of your poise, and I'm probably older than your mom!  I knew some of your story, but your post was very enlightening.  I'm so very sorry about the loss of your uncle, but out of that tragedy came a miracle.  I'm so, so, so relieved that you kept giving yourself more time, and that you gave OH another shot, we are all so much richer for having you part of our "family".  

Congrats on your 1 year surgiversary!  I can't believe that it has been a year.  I remember clearly checking posts to see how you were doing, if you'd made it to Brazil ok, how your surgery went, how your trip home was, etc.  Time flies when your sliding down the scales, huh?

I couldn't peel my eyes away from this post. Congrats and you are doing great! I wish you the best.

Jessy,
YOUR AMAZING!!!! I love reading your posts. You have such an awesome attitude. and you have come so far! Your BEAUTIFUL Babe!! Give your mom a Kiss She did a Great job with you!

Congrats on your success I look forward to following your future journey. You are an inspiration to me!

ETA missing words LOL

I'm so proud of you, Jess. You rock, babeee!

Hi Jessy, thank you so much for sharing your story with us. I have seen you post but didn't know your whole story. You are aazing and so mature for such a young lady. As I read your story, I am sitting here just crying, but got a giggle out of the Kanye pic. I've got to dry my eyes and get myself together before heading out to work, but thank you for sharing your story.

Wow Jessy - that's an amazing story! Congrats on doing everything you could to save your life! Keep workin that DS! Can't wait to hear even more progress reports from you!

Jessy,

What an amazing and inspiringly wonderful story!!! I had a hard time not crying, your story reminds me of mine at your age and now I'm 40 and just finally doing something about my life. You inspire me, god bless you darling!
Your life is just beginning so enjoy every moment!
