So young.....so much pain............

Jun 03, 2009 10:14PM - 4 comments

.......finally at peace.

We lost a friend a week ago.  She was only 19 and spent her entire young life in so much pain and always in and out of the hospital.  Jaime was a beautiful young lady who was srtiken with Cystic Fibrosis.  She was wise beyond her years and stronger than any adult I know.  At age 13, SHE made the decision to have a double lung transplant.  The family that gave her the gift of lungs, gave her 6 more years of life.  She lived it to the fullest.  Despite being so resticted in her every day life, she did more in her short journey than most people do in twice as many years.......
She was an inspiration and touched so many lives.  She never complained, she never questioned her fate.

live, laugh, love

PEACE~
Heidi

I know she is in a much better place...........her best friend died a year ago and at the end of the funeral they showed a picture of her and her friend and it said together always. I guess I am just feeling so bad for her family.  Her sister has been my hubby's executive assisstant for almost 10 yrs and she has been the only bread winner in her small family.  He saw her today and she says she just feels so lost..............  it breaks my heart.

Thanks for all the kind words!
Heidi
