Cheryl, Karen, Monica and Abbie started Birthday Club five years ago when their friend Jennifer was diagnosed with cancer, as a support group to help her get through it. When Jennifer recently passed away, they had an opening for a new member. However, it's not easy to join Birthday Club. Birthday Club is very exclusive, and there's a three-year waiting list.
