A happy heart is good medicine.
On October 8, 2015, Victoria Jackson was getting ready for her 45-minute stand up routine at Zanie's Comedy Club in Nashville. But instead of enjoying the pre-show excitement, she was laying on the couch in the green room coughing nonstop, drinking tea with lemon and honey, and sucking on cough drops.
Vicki 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 up by a robber with a gun in a parking lot in downtown Los Angeles.
But being told she had cancer was her scariest moment. Join Vicki 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 on her chest and stomach
goes through chemotherapy, radiation, baldness, and lavender hair
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've been diagnosed with breast cancer, or if you know someone who has, this 21-day devotional is full of humor, insight, and comfort as you walk with God through this dark valley.

Victoria Jackson
VICTORIA JACKSON is best known for her six seasons on Saturday Night Live, 1986 1992, and has also appeared in many films. Vicki was raised in a Bible-believing, piano-playing home with no TV. While at college on a gymnastics scholarship, Vicki discovered drama. Johnny Carson's talent scout saw her six minute stand-up comedy act and put her on the Tonight Show where she appeared over twenty times. In 1992 Vicki was reunited with her high school sweetheart, Paul Wessel, and left show business to raise a family in the suburbs of Miami. Vicki still performs stand-up comedy and appears in an occasional film. She and her husband now reside in Nashville, Tennessee, to be near their daughters and grandchildren.
