Beginning the New Year, leaving cancer behind.
We’ve been very open about Jordan’s battle with cancer and mental health, so here is more of our story.
In September, Jordan went in for his routine CT scan. After further testing and more scans through October, we found out Jordan had cancer again in his right groin after being cancer free for a little over 3 years. This is his 3rd reoccurrence with sarcoma. The cancer had mutated around the systematic treatment he has been on since March of 2022. With his team of doctors, we decided to do radiation, start on the 3rd generation of the oral chemo he has been taking, and have surgery to remove the tumor.
This news is never easy. It affects the way we move through the world. It affects our life. It hit us like a ton of bricks when we thought we were past that chapter.
As we move through life, we ebb and flow with what is thrown at us. You either face it head on, or you coward down. For me, this never gets easier. I’ve worked hard to become the woman, wife, and mother I am. News like this knocks me back, sometimes making me feel like I cannot handle it.
As we’ve always said, you never know the challenges people are facing around you. Be kind. A stranger or a friend, someone is carrying something heavy you cannot even see.
Jordan had surgery to remove his cancer on Monday and is on his road to recovery. Surgery went well and we’re hoping for a quick recovery. We hope sarcoma is gone for good.
We aren’t carrying this burden alone. We have a huge group of support coming from every part of our life. It means so much. If you’ve helped, reached out, sent gifts and donations, etc. You know who you are. We thank you.🙏❤️‍🩹🎗️

Welcome to Mind Over Cancer Foundation! If you’re new here, we’d like to tell you a little bit about us.
We are a Kansas City based nonprofit organization that focuses on providing financial support for mental health services within the cancer community. This includes paying for copay or full out of pocket cost for individual therapy, providing resources for therapy groups or other help, and giving people moments they can enjoy with their loved ones. Our help extends to cancer survivors, fighters, and their care takers.
Our board is currently made up of 4 members who volunteer their time to help this cause. We host a variety of fundraisers throughout the year to keep this foundation alive.
We started in January of 2023 and have been directly helping people since. We are small, we are making a difference, and every donation goes to helping the cancer community.
We get to see first hand the effect we’re making on peoples lives for the better.
We love our supporters and want to thank each and every one of you who have shown up, donated, shared a post, or spread the word. We couldn’t do this without you!
