To all of you who have been patiently awaiting an update to this fic, allow me to apologize. Things with my Mother have taken a turn for the worse - much worse.
She was officially diagnosed with stage 4 B-cell Lymphoma on the Thursday after Labor Day. Many other tests were run after that diagnosis and we were told that chemotherapy would only give her a few extra months to live. She decided not to forgo treatment and have some QUALITY of life left, rather than try to extend it for only a few months with chemo treatments that would most likely kill her quicker than the disease.
Her cancer has been highly aggressive, and in only 6 short weeks, my sisters and I have been told that she has mere weeks to live. Since she lives 4.5 hours away from me, every extra minute I have during the week is spent either on the phone or visiting with her.
Please rest assured that I WILL FINISH THIS STORY. However, I have more pressing and important matters to take care of.
To those of you who have sent me notes of encouragement (looking at you, #MattPack) I so appreciate it.
To the few of you who have sent me Private Messages stating that:
"Imma dye if'n u don't update soon, plz! Don' b a teazzz w/ur storieeezzz"
Well, I would tell you what I think, but my Mom raised me better than that.
Oh, but the English Nazi in me doesn't care to say that your grammar sucks.
I appreciate your patience and understanding as my family goes through such a difficult time.
Thank you.
Until next time, ~Jilly
