No More Chemo, Charlie Brown

We had a family meeting at hospice today. Laurel has decided, with the blessings of her oncologist, to stop chemotherapy. The chemo was not doing it's job, and was making Laurel's life completely miserable. She is ready to enjoy a chemo-free life... this is a cause for celebration!

Laurel would like to spend her precious time with her immediate family. We are coming up with a strategy so that people who would like to visit Laurel can do so at specific times so as not to overwhelm her with too many visitors simultaneously and to give each of us the time we need with our mom/sister/wife/daughter. I'll be posting a schedule on this blog within the next day or so.
