Following months of non-stop appointments, the mother of three says she’s ready to take it slow:
“I’m trying to listen to my body and give my body grace and not go crazy. There’s days where I do too much and then I just feel exhausted and I start getting pains. But other than that, I’m finally starting to feel better. I feel like I’m almost getting back to myself.”
She’s also doing her best to be as healthy as possible, especially since her doctors warn there is a chance it may return:
“I feel like I’m eating better, working out, obviously staying on top of my appointments. I’m just not avoiding anything and just trying to be the best version of myself.”
On doctors’ orders, she’ll be going in for routine pap smears every three months for the foreseeable future.

Whew! We’re so relieved to hear Snooki is doing so much better and is now leading a much healthier life. She inspired so many “hyster sisters” (a term for people who’ve had hysterectomies) throughout her cancer journey, and we know her story will continue helping people who need it.
Congrats, Snooks!! We’re so proud of you.
