Jenna Fischer Instagram – One year later. Same hotel. Longer hair. Another great trip to St. Louis for my family’s Thanksmas celebration! Another cozy stay at my favorite hotel @fsstlouis
It was exactly 2 years ago in December 2023 that I got the news I had breast cancer. All of my diagnosis and treatment dates are burned into my brain. These “anniversaries” inspire reflection. I try to take a moment and sit with all that has happened.
I’m thankful for so many things…health, family, our crazy pets that make us laugh. I’m also very grateful for working. While 2024 was all about cancer treatments, 2025 has been a creative adventure. I spent most of 2024 in an easy chair in my living room. In 2025 I got to travel and film New Years Rev in Oklahoma City and then perform Ashland Avenue at The Goodman Theater in Chicago. Acting again has fed my soul. And, getting to do my podcast Office Ladies each week with my BFF Angela Kinsey is the constant. We started adding a monthly Friday Chit Chat and expanded our @officeladiespod network to include @howwemadeyourmother When I got my diagnosis I wondered if I’d ever be able to work again. So, this past year filled with work and artistic growth has been so meaningful.
Most of all I’m thankful to be cancer free. I’m grateful every time I have a new scan and I get that news. (My pink sisters know the anxiety that comes with those scans.)
Sending my love to anyone battling a health issue right now. And to everyone else, please don’t skip your mammograms, colonoscopies and skin checks. Happy belated Thanksgiving. I’m going to post more about my trip to St. Louis over this next week and in my stories! We had a blast! | Posted on 01/Dec/2025 22:42:27
