Flalady Update
Dear Friends,
Today I connected with Flalady, and she has given me permission to post a short update. First, she misses you much and as she always did, wishes each of you the best where ever you are in your breast cancer journey.
Flalady has had advancement of her skin metastasis through her chest, as well as neck tumor compromising her breathing and swallowing. Needless to say, this is most disheartening to hear. She is getting help from family and appropriate doctors, focusing particularly on pain relief at this point.
I have been honored to interact with Flalady over the years through this site. It is apparent to me that she continues strong, dealing with day to day trials with dignity and much grace. She appreciates all the good thoughts from you all, and will carry on.
My best to you all, and to our dearest Flalady, I send our love and concern.
Tender

I'm so sorry to hear this! I've followed Flalady on her often very frustrating journey on getting her skin mets treated. I was hoping each trial was the one that would work. The energy she put into her research - she's a wealth of information! I don't think anything can keep her down for long!
Flalady -- this sucks. I hope this latest setback is set right soon and your pain managed. I get so angry at this disease that keeps knocking you down! I hope to see you back soon, you are missed by many!!!!! With love,
Elizabeth
