is my third bout with cancer&#8230;.a rare one this time called Mantle Cell Lymphoma&#8230;only 6% of lymphoma patients get this disease a year&#8230;at first I thought&#8230;lucky me&#8230;then I thought&#8230;heck yeah, I am lucky, I am blessed, and I will kick this one out the back door too&#8230;I have an amazing oncologist, and amazing support team, amazing family and friends, and the most amazing husband ever&#8230;my niece said from the start&#8230;Aunt Janet, You got this! \u00a0I took that and it has been the driving force in my journey&#8230;though there have been ups and downs, I was lucky enough to be introduced to The Turning Heads Project by the nurse at my oncologist office&#8230;and so my journey continues and they documented my story in a way that no one else could!<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>First, I would like to say THANK YOU to each of the ladies that assisted in this photo shoot&#8230;Debbie, the producer, and cancer survivor herself, and the girl who started
