I'm so very sad to hear this....Jeanette was an amazing person who will be dearly missed. Throughout her struggles she always looked on the bright side and tried not to let cancer stop her doing things that she wanted to do. Jeanette faced her challenges with such grace and courage. I had some PM contact with her and she was so kind, thoughtful and funny. My deepest sympathy to her dear mother and all her loved ones. Will miss you beautiful Jeanette, love you xxxxxxxx

Just hearbreaking... she has been so sweet and supporting to us while she was probably in need of support herself. Or maybe I'm wrong because she was strong enough...
Sorry for my poor words, words are so small in front of these things... Especially mine.
I'm deeply saddened.

Such sad news. Jeanette was always so helpful when answering questions and I loved the way she talked about her stoma 'George'. Thinking of her family and friends.

I am truly heartsick at this news. I had much admiration for her, her humor in the face of all she went through and her ability to find joy in the smallest moments. When she posted a pic of her head with the henna tattoo I thought "please let me be just like this when it's my turn". Thank you, Jeannette, for teaching me not just how to live with a terrible disease, but how to die with one also. I will miss you every day.

Jeanette was a one of a kind soul, always with a smile even while being honest about what she was facing. I will always imagine her relishing another piece of pie! Sincere condolences to her family. May Jeanette rest in peace.
