More News
Ellen and Cathy received some sobering news on Wednesday. Ellen's follow-up MRI has shown that the tumor has continued to grow in the area that had been previously radiated. She is still planning on starting an IV chemotherapy treatment next week to help with tumor symptoms and to continue to fight this thing. The first treatment will be set up to see if her body can tolerate the chemo cocktail that her doctor is suggesting. Ellen is really hanging in there, but needs our love now more than ever.

Dear Ellen and Cathy,
I read Donna's note just minutes ago.
Embrace all that you can, especially each other and know that your friends are holding you in their love for the two of you. Indulge yourself in whatever feels good and comforting to you. And most of all "lache pas la patate"(Cajun for "don't let go of the potato!").
Lovingly,
Liz

Dear Ellen,
I've been thinking about you today. I think this is the day you see how the new chemo effects you. I sure hope it goes well. Just wanted to tell both you and Cathy that Marie and I are both holding you in our hearts.
Love,

Just wanted you both to know I'm holding you in the light. I do hope this first chemo treatment goes well and is tolerable.
Big Healing Hug.
Namaste,
