Former "Saturday Night Live" star Victoria Jackson remains in good spirits.
Jackson, 65, explained that she isn’t afraid of facing her fate after previously sharing that her cancer has returned and is inoperable. She said her family’s unconditional support has helped her in her health journey.
"My two daughters and my four grandchildren, they came over this weekend, and they were like, ‘Are you sad? Are you scared?’ And I thought, ‘Well, I'm not sad. … ‘Why am I not sad?’" she told People magazine.
"Because I don't miss anything in their childhoods. I video every day of my daughter's life. … And I don't miss one thing with my grandchildren — tap [dance] recitals, acting shows — ever."
During Jackson’s recent interview, she said doctors broke the news to her on her 65th birthday Aug. 2.
"I was like, ‘Oh, OK. Well, that makes sense.’ How can you catch every molecule?,’" she told the media outlet. "I'm not good in science or math, but I expected it could come back. I kind of forgot about it for nine years. I forgot I had cancer."
Jackson underwent chemotherapy after she first discovered she had breast cancer in 2015. She was performing stand-up at a comedy club and explained she had a terrible cough that "wouldn’t go away."

After her initial hospital visit, doctors revealed Jackson had Stage 3C breast cancer, and the disease had spread to 10 or more lymph nodes.
She additionally shared her symptoms at the time.
"I didn't really have nausea. It wasn't so bad," she said. "But it's not like a picnic."
