Hi Jackie,

Biggest congratulations and much admiration on two decades of crushing breast cancer.

I just saw this but want to let you know I live in Spring, and am happy to help in ANY way when you come to Houston and MDA.

I was treated for Stage IV colon cancer at MDA (but my surgeons consulted with Mayo docs on my messed-up labs!), and I was on a surgical stepdown floor with some advanced breast cancer patients. This was due to COVID crowding, but I’m forever grateful because we all helped each other through some rough things.

Feel free to email me directly.

BTW, my mom worked at JSC for 30 years so very familiar with Clear Lake.

Jen:

Good to hear from you. I now live north of San Antonio in Spring Branch.

We still have a home in Houston, near Hobby Airport. Hop, skip and jump to MDA.

Your Mom might know of one of my good friends ..... retired Astronaut - Anna Lee Fisher.
She was in the first group of women Astronauts (1978). She flew as Mission Specialist on STS-51-A in 1984. First Mother in Space. She retired in 2018. Met her about 35 years ago. Our daughters were in the same gymnastics class.
