Quick update after long day at Cancer Center

It's the ghostwriter/sister-in-law again, only with an upgraded title of "commissioned author," lest anyone thinks I hacked into Shelley's blog and posted information without her knowledge! I've been commissioned to do a quick update this evening after their long day at the Cancer Center to let you know that Shelley did fine with chemo today.  Their day actually began at 11 pm last night when they made a trip to the ER with feeding tube problems, didn't get home until 3 am.  Then lots of complications getting started at the Cancer Center, but once things got rolling, they went well, and Shelley is feeling better today than she has for several days.  Today she's done a little talking and a little swallowing--things we all do so effortlessly and take for granted, but they were nearly impossible for her the last few days. She's feeling enough better that she's hoping to post more details soon, maybe tomorrow. So, stay tuned for further updates from Shelley herself....

Shelley, sure hope treatments start going smoother for you.
Know it is a drain on the both of you. We are glad you have a good caring husband standing by you.
Our thoughts are with you both and your family.
