Jelly Roll is known for being great with fans, and this story really proves it.<\/p>\n
A 65-year-old woman in Nashville named Suzanne Durham has terminal cancer and posted a video this month saying her dying wish was to just meet Jelly Roll and see him perform.<\/p>\n

There’s a charity called the James Bess Foundation, which is like Make-a-Wish, but for adults.<\/p>\n
They helped Suzanne get his attention.<\/p>\n
The charity posted a clip of Jelly and his wife Bunnie XO showing up to meet her and do a mini-concert for her and her friends.<\/p>\n

Bunnie posted a video later and talked about why they immediately said yes to the request.<\/p>\n
She said it was a chance to do something nice for someone who, quote, “spent her entire life trying to help other people.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jelly Roll is known for being great with fans, and this story really proves it.\u00a0","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":25055,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_img_display":"Yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[4897,37,4898,3995,4899],"class_list":["post-25461","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-country-music-news","tag-bunnie-xo","tag-cancer","tag-james-bess-foundation","tag-jelly-roll","tag-suzanne-durham"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-12 16:01:19","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"react_link":"https:\/\/country959.com\/blogs\/country-music-news\/2023\/07\/jelly-roll-grants-a-cancer-patients-dying-wish\/","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25461","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25461"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25461\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25055"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25461"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25461"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25461"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
