My mother became ill in August 2008 with ovarian cancer. This is a story of the final months of an exceptional woman.

Delighted to know on 12/14 you have been feeling fine . I do hope the bad is gone , gone, gone . Once that nasty chemo is over , you start back up hill and all will be fine . Yea .
Take your time . I would walk in big circles so i didn't get too far away .
You and Paul are looking mighty fine. You absolutely look as if your well and truly pickled in Agave Tequila of the finest vintage!
Born in rural Arkansas my tongue took up residence in my cheek shortly thereafter. I use it to speak "Genteel Southern Lady". Cussin' I only use when provoked by the Uppity.
Paul, my husband, and I have lived in Cajun Country for many years raising cane, twins (a boy and a girl; now adults? definitely old) and other mischief. Alligators, water moccassins and bears have tussled with me as I protect our swampy coastal farmstead.
We are stuck now on lovely Lake Hamilton near Hot Springs where we have our second home. We have been here waiting for Godot since my heart valves blew out Late November 2007 and now with cancer diagnosed August 2008. The Furies have me in their sights...
I am writing this blog to let my Beloveds know how I am doing so they will not "get off" in imagined ways on my dire straits. The reality is bad enough without turning my story into a B-grade movie of the mind. I know all of you wish me the very best. And I miss you! never no mind your fevered imaginations. This is as close as I can get to a fond and loving chat with you right now...
Sadly, Judy aka Mizflounce passed away peacefully early on Sunday morning May 30th 2009 age 78.

Dear Judy,
I love that picture of you...quite a handsome couple!
It will be a good New Year. I can feel it in my bones. Those aching devils talk to me quite often now. Sigh...
Hugs & Kisses,
Kelsey
