Last June I met Jenni, an amazing and beautiful 23-year-old woman who truly inspired me. Jenni was diagnosed with cancer at just nine weeks old, then again in her senior year of
high school and again at 21. I spent the day with her and we got our hair and make up done, one of her wishes made a reality by the Dream Foundation, a charity you all know I am heavily involved with.

Well, I just received an email from Tom at the Dream Foundation, who just returned from a visit with Jenni and unfortunately he tells me she’s gotten pretty ill. I wanted to let you all know what Tom said in his e-mail because it
brought a tear to my eye. He said: “We visited for about 5 hours where we
successfully got
her out for a short drive to watch the sunset over the Pugent sound,
looked through photos of her mission trip to Colombia, and mostly
reminisced about her dream, as she one by one recounted every name and face that she met through the Dream Foundation. She spent extra time talking about how sweet you were to her, you touched her life.

Jenni, you are an angel on earth and an inspiration to me. Your strength is empowering and you have touched my life in more ways than you will ever know. You are in my thoughts at this time and I’ll never forget the fun day we spent together. I am so honored to have met you!

  9. Kim I am so proud of you for what you did. It must feel so good have brighten someone’s day. If only there were more people like that in the world!! Keep doing a GREAT job!

  10. Kim, Thank you for sharing Jenni’s story, It was very inspirational.. life is short! We all believe that we will live until we’re 90 .. but you just don’t know when it is your turn to go. Remember to tell your love ones how much you love them everyday, as if it was your last day. Because you will never know if you have a another chance too.

    Jenni keep you head up high and stay strong.. all my prayers are with you…

    Kim, I am so happy and proud of you (not sure if those are the word I should use) the fact is that, as busy as you are in your life you still take the time out to make a difference in other people lives that you may not know. It’s hard to keeping it real, being the real you and down to earth when you are living in the spotlight of fame. You are one of the few celeb that do keep it real and do really care. So keep it up Kim. I believe in karma and you do good and good things will to you. Please keep making a difference.

    xoxo
