The Saturday Night Live alum explained that she feels “so blessed” with the time she’s had as she spends time with her family while treating an inoperable tumor on her windpipe.
“My two daughters and my four grandchildren, they came over this weekend, and they were like, ‘Are you sad? Are you scared?'” Jackson told People. “And I thought, ‘Well, I’m not sad. … ‘Why am I not sad?’ Because I don’t miss anything in their childhoods. I video every day of my daughter’s lives. … And I don’t miss one thing with my grandchildren: tap [dance] recitals, acting shows, ever.”
She also explained that it helps achieving just about “every dream” she’s “ever had,” including starting a family, visiting Paris and appearing on TV (Jackson was an SNL cast member from 1986 to 1992).
