I had to say goodbye to a friend this weekend. I had only known her a few short years but she was a huge part of my life. She was the blood cousin of my husband. Her name is Kelsey and she was just a child when she died. She was 14....I am still having a hard time with this, why do children have to die. She basically just went to sleep. She was having surgery for something else, which was successful, she said she couldn't breathe and than just went to sleep. No pain no nothing, just went to sleep.
At the memorial service so many of her friends and family were there. This girl touched the lives of so many people. Over 700 were in attendance. I am sure there were more that just couldn't be there. In the fourteen short years that she lived she truly lived. I was amazed and utter awe at what this girl accomplished. She is truly an inspiration.
I will miss my texting buddy and my silly cousin. Oh she was fun. We had some great times hanging out together. Being still human I am selfish and would like her back. But I know she is in Heaven having a grand adventure. I also know I will see her again, but that doesn't make it any easier here on earth...
Until next time Kelsey....xoxoxo
