I have been wondering for a while now where she has been. After living in and reporting from Israel for many years, she had been reporting from the Pentagon since brokering the release of her pal and colleague Steve Centanni (captured in Gaza a few years ago.) Now Steve seems to be the only Fox reporter in the Pentagon, and Jennifer is sorely missed.

She is a very interesting person with a fascinating background. Here's an interview she did on c-span back in 2006. She is bright, articulate, and courageous. She just had her third child (a son) a few months ago. God bless her and her family.

Good reporter. Her kids need a mommy. Hope she makes it.

I had wondered what happened to her. My prayers go out to her. She lived in Israel for a few years. Seems like a really nice woman. I hope she pulls through

Stage three sucks but the odds are still in her favor. I wish her well.

Prayer bump for Jennifer Griffin. Dear God and our Lord Jesus Christ please reach out and give your healing touch to Jennifer Griffin and send wisdom and peace to her and her family and all who are involved with Jennifer during this time of great need. In Jesus’ Holy name. Amen.

I always liked her reporting. She has style. It will be good to see her well and her return soon to FOX News.

So sad.

I remember thinking during the Hezbolla/Israel conflict that she was the only one who knew anything about what she was reporting.

Good luck Jennifer.

She really is one of the best. All business and professionalism. Check out the link to the interview I posted upthread. You won't be able to tear yourself away from the compelling story and the way she describes events in her life.

Prayers for her but also for her Doctors. People often forget Physicians and medicine are gifts from God.

For all the abuse FNC takes (re: “newsbabes”)- they have some excellent women journalists there. Jennifer Griffin and Amy Kellogg are really superb reporters and the amount of solid information they convey per minute of segment is impressive. Best of luck to Jennifer Griffin.

That is so true. She stands out from the crowd because she knows what she is talking about, not just reading it.

Stage 3 is awful but she can survive it. My cousin’s very good friend had stage 4 ovarian cancer, was diagnosed 12 years ago, knock on wood, still alive, has it had come back 3 times already, had part of her lung removed, removed some of her liver, it went everywhere, it even reoccurred now and its in her spine, found a doctor that removed all of the cancer in her spine..so it is possible to survive this. With new treatments everyday, her chances of survival increase. God Bless Jennifer, she is an outstanding journalist and a class act

Don't forget Catherine Herridge. She has been doing an excellent job lately.

She is a good reporter. Prayers for Jennifer Griffin and her family.

By the way, she was born in 1969 making her 40 years old. It’s interesting that Ubamacare enablers are already “saving money” by announcing that routine mammography is unnecessary until a woman turns 50.
