Day 327 - Too Soon

My friend "S" died this morning from a recurrence of breast cancer.

The miracle that everyone was hoping for, the miracle that she and her family so deserved, never quite made it.

"S" was that girl.  The one with the big dimpled smile, the one with a great husband and two young kids.  The one who was PTA President.

She was also that girl.  The one who got cancer at 37, the one who didn't get to defy the odds, the one who didn't get to see her kids grow up.  The one who doesn't get to grow old with her husband.

Lucky for us she will always be THAT girl.  The one who taught us to live in the moment.  The one who showed us what courage is.  The one who loved all of us - and more importantly was not afraid to tell us.
