A happy heart is good medicine

On October 8, 2015, Victoria Jackson was getting ready for a 45-minute stand-up routine. But instead of enjoying the pre-show excitement, she was laying on the couch in the green room coughing nonstop.


Victoria had many scary moments growing up: doing a back handspring on the four-inch balance beam; performing stand-up comedy; auditioning for Saturday Night Live; and getting held at gunpoint in downtown Los Angeles. But being told she had cancer was her scariest moment.


Join Victoria for twenty-one days as she:

wonders “why me?” and if her lollipop addiction caused the cancer
writes a ukulele song in the MRI waiting room
undergoes a double mastectomy with secret messages written in permanent marker to her doctor
goes through chemotherapy, radiation, baldness, wigs, wigs, and more wigs
discovers that Jesus is enough
performs at Zanie’s to a standing ovation nearly one year after her diagnosis



If you are one of the one-in-eight women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer, or if you know someone who has been, this 21-day devotional is full of humor, insight, and comfort as you walk with God through this dark valley.
