Shelley's health problems the past few days have been a foreshadowing of the difficult news we received this morning. Her cancer has spread significantly - thus the reason for her swollen tummy and feet as well as her increased tiredness.
The good news is that Shelley won't have to get out of bed early on Monday mornings to face chemo any longer. The palliative team will now take over responsibility for symptom management.
Her three siblings are arriving within the hour for their final visit before they leave - one at midnight tonight for England, the other two at 6:30 AM tomorrow. What a joy their visit has been to both of us!
With appreciation for giving us some space just to be with each other over the next couple of days.
