Oh, Sunday Breakfast Buffet Days. Our personal favorite days in the kitchen. A nice pace where Father & Daughter worked together. Cooking up pancakes, eggs, bacon, sausage, all the good stuff for you to enjoy. There’s just something comforting about a nice plate of breakfast food. Would you agree?

FAQ on Jay’s Wife:

Hello Friends — We hope you’ve been enjoying this lovely weather we’ve been having this weekend. We’ve been keeping this page active as we’ve been receiving messages regarding Jay’s wife (Chelle) and equipment we have for sale.

Several have inquired if there will be a benefit. It is something we have discussed, we just don’t have anything planned. Between her being in and out of the hospital and the arrival of grandbaby #2, we’ve been focused on that. However, Brianna will be getting more serious about a benefit. In the meantime, we are ordering t-shirts in with the proceeds going directly to Jay & Chelle. They will be available the beginning of March. They are navy blue as dark blue is the color for Colorectal Cancer. Friday, March 6th, is wear blue in honor of those dealing with Colorectal Cancer and for awareness of this cancer. If you would like a t-shirt or hoodie, please venmo (-Arnold-118) with the amount and item type and size. Shipping is available, please add $7 to ship and message us your shipping address. T-Shirts are $25 and Hoodies are $55.

Moler Barber College Fargo ND has reached out and has also graciously offered to host a fundraiser. They will be donating a portion of their proceeds to Jay & Chelle. We are aiming for Friday, March 6th. Please follow their page for the announcement!

Chelle had surgery this past Thursday to try to remove the new mass that has grown. Unfortunately, they weren’t able to remove it as it’s now grown around the main artery in the abdomen. So if they removed the mass, they would end up cutting off blood supply to her intestines. They’ve said it’s very aggressive and not fully responding to her current treatment plan. They are looking up different treatment options now to try to kill off the mass. We will learn more this coming week.

Thank you for reaching out and checking in. We miss seeing you all and hope one day we can serve you all again. Your kind words, love, prayers, and support is greatly appreciated 💜

Today is World Cancer Day and we’re using this platform to share some awareness.

Cancer is something that affects many of us. It’s something that no one expects to hear. It’s a word filled with unknowns and fear. As some of you may remember, Jay’s wife was diagnosed with advanced Stage 3C Colon Cancer back in September. On Christmas Eve we learned that her cancer had spread and she is now considered Stage 4. Her treatment shifted from ‘cure’ to ‘control/palliative’. She has been in and out of the hospital due to the pain from the spread. She just recently received a referral to Mayo in Rochester.

Colon Cancer is now the #1 cause of cancer related death in both men and women under the age of 50 years old. What was once considered a diagnosis of the elderly, it’s now showing up more and more in young adults. This disease no longer discriminates against age or gender. On World Cancer Day we want to use our platform to bring awareness to this disease. Please schedule yourself for a colonoscopy — no matter your age. No matter if you show signs or symptoms of the disease. With Colon Cancer is imperative to catch it early. And that starts with a routine colonoscopy.
