## Resource

This week is personal. We unplugged completely — and there's a reason. When you've heard the word cancer , your life flashes in front of you, and you start asking the question no parent wants to ask: Will I be here to see it? This time, "it" was our daughter Maddie's wedding. In this episode, Jen and Darren pull back the curtain on the entire week in Folly Beach / Charleston, SC — the vision Maddie had, the flower panic, Darren's day-drinking detour, the rehearsal poem, and a wedding day that started picture-perfect and turned into a 10-minutes-to-go downpour with the umbrellas 45 minutes away. There were tears, rings under a chair, three shoe changes, and a whole lot of joy between two people in love. It's a reminder of what actually matters: put the phone down, be all the way present, and take in the moments you once wondered if you'd get to see. A quick note: Jen is not a doctor — she's a Certified Integrative Health Practitioner sharing her own lived experience. Not Today Cancer is for anyone navigating a cancer diagnosis, not breast cancer alone. 🔗 Resources & Support Join Not Today Cancer the Community , the Community T riple Boost Protein – my go-to clean, hormone-safe protein.
