Standing with Shelly

In August 2026, Shelly received the shocking diagnosis of thymus carcinoma — a rare and aggressive cancer that would change the rhythm of her days. By the time she had the biopsy and petscan it had already spread to the lining of her lungs, making it stage 4. She is approaching treatment with the same grace and determination she brings to everything: one day at a time, one prayer at a time, one act of love at a time.

Thymus cancer is rare, and the road is not easy. But Shelly is not walking it alone. She is surrounded by a community of people who believe in her, pray for her, and show up for her in every way they can. Thank you so much for your support!
