Hi all We did it . We got married. I have been with Ray for just under 17 years. He has been with me since the being of our journey. He has been my support and strength over the last 10 years. How this started I became ill the beginning of December. I had a low grade fever just 39.8 and a little short of breath. I thought I best go to check in at the hospital to make sure all was well. Eight days later I was released from the hospital. I had two blood clots in my right lung and pneumonia in my left. By the way I do have advance mbc with only one option now is IV chemo. Why I'm sharing this story with you is because I do not want you to go through what I did. At no time did I feel ill, so when my doctor held my hand and said that I may not make it to Christmas I was in shock. Please , please when you have any doubt check with your doctor. We had a fantastic wedding day with the family. We all wore masks until the pictures were taken and enjoyed a small snack with a wedding cake . It was everything that I could have wished for . My son and daughter did it all for us, after I expressed my wishes when I was sick.....not sure why we didn't do this years ago....

Take care Stay safe

Happy New Years 2021

Congratulations, you both look happy and beautiful! I wish you an even longer time together than you already have experienced! No one should be telling us when our time ends. It ends when we quit and you don’t look like you are ready to do that yet!

So true .... My mind is willing my body is getting a little tired. Lol..... It's over 10 years from the onset of mbc ... I just need to pay more attention to signs...

Thanks for responding

Wonderful! You both look so happy. Glad you proved the doctor wrong. How on earth do they come up with these predictions. I guess they think they are being helpful? Wishing you well.Cheers, June S.

Thanks to all of you for your wonderful responses to our wedding day. I can't thank you enough. It was a great day and I sure loved the tux for Lincolin.....bought by my son in law ... The hat given to me by my daughter... and the shawl was from my son. These gifts left a sparkle in

my eyes.

Take care be safe

Okay! So, I'll bite. How did the name occur?

Shelby4now profile image
Shelby4now in reply to jersey-jazz

Well my name is Shelley. I noticed when I joined a lot of people did not use their names so I always liked the car Shelby . So that is how Shelby4now was made. The story is a little borrowing

Take care
