Hello, welcome to Knitting Pipeline. I am Paula and I have some difficult news to share with you today.

I am recording on January 15th 2019 however I don't know when I will release this episode.

I have not felt well for a few months and what appeared to be kidney stones is something far worse.

I have ovarian cancer and it is metastatic.

We will not know until I have surgery how far it has spread. After surgery

at treatment plan will most likely include chemotherapy and radiation. You have been with me for eight and a half years now. and

we have been with me for eight and a half years now and we have built such a splendid community.

I treasure all the friendships not just between you and me but among yourselves.

This has been the greatest joy of the podcast.

I'm hoping to keep the podcast going,

possibly with short episodes now and then. I know this will be a long hard road and

am prepared to fight as hard as I can. I have two beautiful granddaughters and I want to see those girls grow to adulthood.

What will encourage me during my recovery and treatment will be to see our group boards

active. I will be reading everything but possibly not

responding as often as I do now. I will rely on our trustee moderators to fill in for me.

Anyone can start a new thread if you feel like it. My dear

friend Sarah has set up a site for me on Caringbridge. The address is

caringbridge.org,

And this will be in the groups.

It will be on my blog and I hope that you follow along.
