Well I mentioned the abc show yesterday in the Jewel on TV thread and included it on the JKF calendar so you should have seen it here since yesterday.
Thanks for the Breast Cancer Campaign info Chris. |

She looks absolutely BEAUTIFUL in those photos!! What I love about Jewel is that she's beautiful INSIDE & out. Does anyone know if Jewel is or was close to anyone who's had breast cancer?? I was just curious.

I don't believe she has been directly but she has been very close to people who have died of other forms of cancer. BUt as a woman, you can't help but care about this subject.

Found new High Res pictures of Jewel from her day in Washington.
Warning - people with slow connections, they are very high res images so they could take a long time to load Picture 1 Picture 2 Picture 3 Picture 4 Picture 5 Picture 6 That's quite a bling she has on her right hand. Pity it isn't her left, then we'd all be jumping around wondering if Ty Finally proposed!! Is it just me, or has she got thicker eyebrows than before? Funny the thing you notice. |

As I'm reading through Chasing Down the Dawn, I noticed it says that Jewel's very good friend Jacque died of cancer....I wonder if it was breast cancer??? It doesn't say in the book from what I've read.
