After much reflection, discussions with doctors, my family, my band mates and spiritual advisors I have made the very difficult decision to cancel the rest of my summer shows. I am still suffering from long Covid symptoms which on any given day can cause extreme fatigue, shortness of breath, and chest pains. All which causes anxiety and affects my performance in unexpected ways. This decision is extremely difficult for me as I consider myself a consummate performer and I have worked hard for 30 years in this business not to disappoint my fans, my band, the venues and myself. But I have to take care of my health, as I do not want to end up in the hospital again. Resting is not something that comes naturally to me. I plan on learning to become friends with the concept. I want to thank the venue promoters for their heartwarming support, understanding, love and respect regarding my decision. To my band, you all know this breaks my heart and it's going to be awhile before the tears to stop flowing. Love, Jill
