Jump for Jamie 2016
Jamie Gilmore, founder and inspiration behind the non-profit Jamie’s Hope, continues to battle a rare form of cancer, Acinic Cell Carcinoma. After suffering through the extreme side-effects of chemotherapy for almost 3 years, she decided to completely change her life through diet, exercise, meditation and extreme lifestyle modification. The difference has been nothing short of amazing!! Although she still battles this stage 4 disease, her scans show extremely promising results! As she fights to live, she has chosen to take life by the horns and inspire others to do the same. She blogs daily in hopes that she can encourage others to live life to the fullest and JUMP into living a healthy, well-rounded life. Lifestyle Matters; dedicated to educating others on the importance of cancer prevention through diet & nutrition, physical & emotional wellness and stress management.

Nitrites and Nitrates
Sorry to all of my bacon lovers out there!!! Since it is cancer prevention month, thought I would start with a few common items found in the fridge of many americans. So here’s a little education on the EWG’s “Dirty Dozen.” Lets start with Nitrites and Nitrates! Wasn’t hard to find products with these additives, checked the labels on 2 products I found, both containing Sodium Nitrites. Nitrites and nitrates are used as a preservative in meats like bacon, sausage, and hot dogs. So what do you do? Check your labels, reduce consumption or avoid them altogether to reduce your risk of cancer. Not only are you getting these awesome food additives in many common foods, but did you know processed meat is classified as a Group 1 by the World Health Organization (WHO) International Agency For Research on Cancer???? Cigarettes, asbestos, arsenic and alcohol are also classified in Group 1, pretty scary thought!! These have been some of my favorites and I have also battled cancer for over half of my life (20+ years), I know giving up bacon may not be possible for some, so you can always reduce consumption, purchase meats that are nitrate/nitrite free or just don’t eat it!!!! ~ Jamie #LifestyleMatters #Cancer #Prevention #EWG #WHO #DirtyDozen#HealthyLiving #CancerFreeWay #JamiesHope #PlantBasedDiet#EatMorePlants To Learn more check out the information below!!!!! http://www.ewg.org/research/ewg-s-dirty-dozen-guide-food-additives http://www.ewg.org/enviroblog/2015/10/bacon-red-meat-and-cancer-what-world-health-organization-said-and-didn-t-say http://www.iarc.fr/en/media-centre/pr/2015/pdfs/pr240_E.pdf...
Inaugural Golf Tournament for a Cure Beats the Odds
Severe thunderstorms including hail, flooding, and sheets of rain didn’t stop celebrities, participants or the hopes of the Inaugural Jamie’s Hope Golf Tournament for a Cure. After an hour and a half delay, everyone enjoyed a beautiful day on the course raising over $46,000. The Jamie’s Hope Foundation hosted its Inaugural Golf Tournament for a Cure on Friday, May 10, 2013 at Wildcat Golf Club in Houston, Texas. Over $46,000 was raised in support of Targeted Therapy Research at The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Houston Texans Cheerleaders kicked off the event along with celebrity caddies Ready for Love contestant Angela Zatopek, Miss Grand Prix Angela Anderson, Miss Tropic Beauty Cassandra Salvagio, and Miss Swimsuit USA International Kenda Carroll joined for the day. Featured celebrities at the tournament included Kevin Walter of the Tennessee Titans, All-Pro Shayne Graham of the Cleveland Browns, and guest Whitney Mercilus of the Houston Texans, as well as Houston Dynamo player, Michael Chabala. A light-hearted tournament was enjoyed by all as teams teed-off in search of a CURE. Over 120 golfers participated after the torrential weather delay; the clouds parted, the sun came out and the game was on. Players enjoyed a day on the greens trying their luck at multiple hole-in-one prizes, including a brand new Infiniti G37 Convertible sponsored by Southwest Infiniti and the ultimate $1,000,000 grand prize. “To say the tournament was fun is a major understatement. The Jamie’s Hope team is officially in love with golf tournaments!

Jamie Update
Hey everyone. This is Cindy. Just wanted to let you know how Jamie is doing. Most of you know we can into the ER with a fever on Monday night and went home after fluids and meds. Adam and I brought her back last night once we learned her fever was still high ranging 101.7 to 102. Also, Dr Tsimberidou wanted us to be safe and bring her in to check her white blood cell count which is ok. When we brought her in her temperature was 103 so I’m glad we came! Her calcium and magnesium were low too so they gave her some of that and fluids again. They were gonna let us take her home but we decided to stay and have them watch over her. Her blood pressure dropped and was in the low 80’s so they put her on a watch and we are still at th ER. Her blood pressure seems to finally be back up now! Bout to order some food and try to get her energy up. She is very very tired. Thank you for your prayers and thoughts. It’s comforting knowing people are in this with us. Love everyone. -Cindy- (Jamie’s...Donate Here
