It's been awhile since the last update to the blog, but a lot has happened.  Karen suffered a set back with her chemotherapy treatments, and the cancer spread to her lungs, liver and brain.  She received 10 rounds of radiation to the brain in 8 days this past October.  All other cancer treatments have been stopped as Karen is now in hospice.  Her situation digresses a little more each day.  Right now we are focused on her comfort.  She has fought a good fight over the past three years.  Please keep Karen in your thoughts and prayers as she continues on the next part of her journey.
