This is David Knight, Olga's husband.

In early August, Olga composed a blog entry but didn't post it.  In the draft post, she talked about stopping the Lynparza treatment which wasn't working.  At the time, she was constantly extremely fatigued. Her draft post also mentions that she would rest for a couple of weeks before deciding on further treatment.

As it turned out, with Olga's condition, no further treatment was available for Olga.  Olga spent a couple of weeks in hospital until approximately September 9.  She arrived home in palliative care. PSWs and nurses cared for her daily.  Olga's quality of life rapidly deteriorated.  Those close to her, knew her passing would happen soon.

Olga passed away  at 10:30 am on Friday October 7, 2016.

I know many people regularly checked her blog.  I wanted to post this note in closure.
