Dear Helen and family. I was so saddened to learn that your daughter-in-law lost her fight against ovarian cancer. Having been in the Exercise for Energy class with her, I know she gave every ounce of strength she had to fight this horrible disease. May you find some comfort in happy memories and knowing that she has now been set free. Prayers and Blessings to you and your family.
