I end this week with a very heavy heart. My classmate from HS gained her wings and flew to Heaven this week. Three short years ago she was at our HS reunion going through chemo with a new diagnosis of Breast cancer. She fought this battle hard over the years but unfortunately the cancer won. She is a single Mom with a daughter that is turning 10 years old next week. It breaks my heart that she left this world way too early. Although on a very touching and positive note, it is very apparent through the support shown on FB of how much she is loved and how many, many, many lives she touched. She has a beautiful smile that lights up a room. As we go through our daily lives it is easy to get discouraged at little things, get caught up in the busy days of life and take things for granted. You never know what might happen any day in your life or a loved ones, so live each day to it's fullest and keep in mind that sometimes those around you are fighting battles you can't see. This short story is very touching and a great reminder:
I know you did not know Shana but I still would like to post this link in case you feel led to contribute. In lieu of flowers the family has set up a fund for her daughter.
You can click on the words Shana's legacy below for the link to the donation page.
Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers and please continue to pray for her family and friends during this time of loss. Thank you.
