This is a copy of the email that I received from Judy's daughter. Pleasse continue to pray for her.

"I appologize for not being able to update everyone, things have been hard and hectic. For those of you that do not know. My mother went into the hospital for severe pain 2 Fridays ago and This past Tuesday she was moved to Hospice House. She tried the chemo regimen and it made her extremely sick and the doctor stopped the treatment. The cancer is moving fast as its already in her lungs and liver. Shes had some problems with her breathing so she keeps oxygen on quite a bit. Weve had so much shock, but still keeping faith in the miracle of God. She is adapting well to the Hospice House and they are so good to her. Its a very comfortable enviroment for her. The doctors have now told her that with chemotherapy that she would have 4-6 months, but since they have stopped it, its all on Gods will. Please pray for all of us, as its very hard for me to even write those words. My mother and I are very close and she is my best friend. I love her and pray for her every single day. All of your prayers are appreciated beyond words. She loved her internet friends and talk of you all so highly. I will try to keep you posted as much as I possibly can...she had over 600 pieces of mail that I had to sift through and she is hoping that if she feels up to it, that she will be able to bring her laptop to her room and be able to get on if she feels like it. If you have any questions, you can email me directly at ShoptilUDropdiva@aol.com.

Love and Friendship,
Stacy (Judys Daughter)"

    Thank you Maureen and Stacy on your mom's update. We were all worried about her.

    I am so sorry for what you are all going thru.

    Please know that Judy, you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time.

    I pray for peace,strength,and love for all.

    All my love,

    Barb ( my Aunt had Hospice care during her battle with Breast and Brain cancer. They were wonderful, caring individuals. One of the caregivers sang Amazing Grace to her each night near the end. It made a very difficult time, humane, loving and peaceful.)
