Here's a message from Melissa, which she shared on facebook yesterday:
Good news and bad! Good news is I do not have cancer! The biopsy showed there were abnormal cells that would eventually become cancer but they got it out before that nasty thing could take me over again! Bad new huge fluid build up need to be aspirated tomorrow! But I am getting in the car and going home after that!
----------------
Melissa is SO happy to be heading back home. She still has a way to go in her recovery, but being based at home is a welcome milestone in her journey! Please join us in Congratulating her ☺
(By the way, if you are not friends with Melissa on facebook yet, we invite you to look her up and become a fan!)
Cancer free is the best news, EVER! The power of prayer :) So happy for you, Melissa and know you'll soon be on the fast track to recovery!!

Hola, soy de chile y lamentablemente no sé inglés pero sé que más de una vez han visto un comentario mio aquí... porqué????... pues hacen un trabajo hermoso digno de admirar, un abrazo a Melissa, yo sé muy de cerca lo que es eso y es muy tranquilizador saber que está bien, aunque no la conozca y por la distancia dudo que alguna vez lo haga, la admiro tanto a ella como a ustedes como artistas creadoras que colocan no solo imaginación sino también sentimientos en sus bellos proyectos...
cariños, karina ojeda.
