She is indeed fortunate, however we feel every bit as fortunate to have her. It is not often mentioned here, however Evie is supportive of us as well, as much as she's able. She is an important member of our family, and she would be sorely missed, were she not with us.

Yes we have been encouraging her to come to us, especially as we understand things will only become more difficult. She talks so much more freely now. It is very exciting! Truly, I don't believe people here are aware of just how shy and quiet she is face to face, even with family. It is a vast improvement and Jim and I both are over the moon at the change!
Thank you Pandora and Wendy for your wishes for Evie. Tomorrow morning is her first chemotherapy treatment, and tonight I am bracing for an episode of major anxiety. Last night Jim was up with her, as she awoke with nightmares and chest pains (anxiety related). Tonight is my turn. She is sleeping peacefully now, however that could very well change. I am hoping for the best for her, for tonight and for tomorrow.
