Following her chemotherapy sessions, she was faced with “ovarian insufficiency” or, which “happens when a woman’s ovaries stop working normally before she is 40.” Knowing that the condition could increase her risk of developing ovarian cancer, she opted to have her ovaries and fallopian tubes taken out via surgery.

PEOPLE reported that Shelly had eight of her embryos frozen with the Center for Fertility and Reproductive Medicine at Northwestern Medicine prior to her December 2020 diagnosis. “The following December, she began trying to get pregnant. The first two attempts were not successful, but the third was,” according to the media outlet. “It’s a true miracle. We have two babies, exactly two years cancer-free. My heart is very full,” she said. , her husband Robert said: “It’s like the best celebration of Shelly’s cancer journey. It’s like, you’ve beaten cancer, and now here’s this extra love you get on top of it.

Their home is now filled with"lots of laughs, lots of cries, and lots of laundry," said Shelly."It’s chaotic, but it’s perfect."
