Becky is free

Becky is free

I'm crying as I write this but just came home, checked my email only to see that an hour ago Ashley wrote to say Becky passed away this afternoon. I can't believe it. Her sweet baby face smiling at us all. I just can't stand it.

It is a sad day.  I didnt know her like you all, but I feel like so much of my energy has been spent pulling for her over the last several weeks and especially these last few days and hours.  I cannot imagine how so many of you women who have been here over the years must feel right now.  I am so sorry and so sad.  I will keep Ty in my prayers.

Rest in peace, Angel..

there  are no words to describe how I feel right now, Becky was here when I first came  to the forum in August 2006,  she gave to us all,  Her love forTy came through  in all the things she did with him, trying to crowd a lifetime into what time she had left with him,   TY,  you need to know that your Mother is always with you, share your life with her, her love for you is greater than death,  wherever you go, whatever you become, just believe in your Mom.  I counted Becky as a good friend and felt about her, like a daughter.  I cannot bare to say good bye so I will just say, "untill we meet again dear Becky."   From a very sad heart,  Marty

Oh my.  I don't know what to say. Becky and Deandra went together.  How completely sad yet beautiful in a way.  My words won't come out right now.  I love you, Becky, and I'm so sad this ended like this.

My heart is breaking.... I just talked to her a couple of weeks ago about making a memory quilt for her and Ty.  What an unbearable loss.  If nothing else, I am glad that she and Deandra are now together and free from the MONSTER of a disease.  Becky meant alot to me and I can't even imagine what her family is going through.  She was so BRAVE and fought so hard.

Peace.

I woke up this morning and said my morning prayers and all of a sudden I just knew. I got on here and FB and read the news and my heart is just breaking. Breaking for Deandra and for Becky, breaking for their families, especially little Ty. and breaking for all of you too. If ever a time we all needed to be together, it is now. I just can't stand it. I hope and pray they know how much we loved them and how much we will miss them. They were both bright lights shining for all of us and I will miss them. As sad as it is, I am glad they are together.

This is just so sad. May Becky and Deandra hold each others hands as they make their way to eternal peace, knowing that they have taught us all about strength and courage, and hoping their angel wings wrap their families with the same strength. To beautiful to stay, to young to leave, so unfair........Peace at last beautiful angel <3<3<3

May the souls of all the brave and wonderful ladies who have passed from this horrible, unrelenting disease now rest in eternal peace.

May their families find peace knowing that the pain and suffering is over as well.

May God keep watch over all of us and our loved ones.

I knew this day would have to come. I prayed for miracles for Becky so many times. She was a caring person who helped many while fighting her fight. My heart goes out to her family and especially Ty.

God bless her soul and please give her family peace that she is in your arms now, free of pain.

Justscore/Heidi mentioned making a quilt. I've done that for patients in the hospital that are near the end. Then the family would take the quilt home. It's such a comforting thing. Is it too late to pull together some teal squares? Something simple that we could send to the family?

Isn't it incredible that Becky touched so many lives through this forum - I first joined the group in 2006 and became friends with Becky right away and had the wonderful joyous occasion to meet her.  To those of you whom I haven't connected with in many many months - your courage and support of one another continues to amaze me - God Bless every one of you.

I just wanted to say that over the past couple days I have re-read Becky's journal on Caring Bridge.  I have never laughed or cried so much in my life.  She was such an amazing young woman, what she endured over this short period time, I am just in awe.  She truly was an inspirational person, I hope that Tyson will grow up to know just what his mother went through to spend every day she possibly could with him.  Becky's body will be laid to rest today, but her spirit and soul has truly touched us all.

I thought all of you, who loved Becky so much, would want to know that a very beautiful service was held for her yesterday - with over 300 people in attendance - at our church.  We didn't know Becky personally - her Dad and step-Mom are active at our church - but having been there yesterday, I know that she was a strong, caring person who loved her family, her God, and especially her son with all of her heart.  And they all adored her.  Becky is indeed free now - no more pain, just peace . . . but she will be sorely missed by all who loved her, and they're all looking forward to the day they're reunited with their angel in Heaven.

The family also paid tribute to Deandra, and I hope it's of some comfort to all of you that they went to Heaven together.  If nothing else, the loss of two beautiful young women to such a devastating disease has raised awareness and will save lives.  I think that's what they would have wanted.  God bless Deandra, Becky and all of you for your courage, strength and heart.  Fight the good fight and never give up.

I found out about Becky and Deandra as my grandma lay in the hospital knowing that she is dying.  It has been so hard for me to comprehend what all is going on.  I loved Becky and Deandra so much.  I know they are in a much better place and are both with Jesus watching over us.  I am trying so hard right now not to lose it.  It has taken me 9 days to be able to get on here and actually read that they are gone.  It was almost like if I didn't read it, it wasn't true.  I love them and all of you.

It's so hard to be where you are right now - it does become pretty surreal, I think that's just our heart's defence mechanism kicking in.  But you're right - it helps when we have assurance - because of our Hope - that this life is the temporary one, and that our loved ones aren't gone, they've just moved on to what comes next . . . no more pain, no more suffering, no more tears or sickness.  They really get the better end of the deal when they go - death isn't death at all . . . it's Life when we have Hope.  As "ireneo" first said it here, they're free.  We're the ones who ache for them, and struggle to accept the hole their absence leaves behind.  

I'll be praying for you and for your grandma.  Don't be afraid - you're not alone.

God Bless

This is just gutwrenching. I cannot believe it. As helpful as these forums are, it is devastating when this dreadful disease takes our friends away. I know she hated to leave her little boy behind. God bless that family.
