I wouldn't know what to say either, but it has to be comforting to have people stop by and provide support and companionship. God bless you for being there for her. It's so unfair.

I'm so glad she came on that cruise with us over spring break. She was feeling good then and swam with the dolphins and turned 18 and got two birthday cakes and got to see three countries she wouldn't have seen otherwise. At the same time, sad for her twin and her mom... because they weren't together on her last birthday. Her twin was on a school trip to Spain while we were on the cruise.

G passed away this afternoon surrounded by many friends and family members, including hypo. G's twin sister asked the group to hang out with her tonight, so hypo just left. My son, who also liked G a lot and hung out with her, is still on his backpacking trip and has no access to anything. I sent him a text asking him to call his mom before he gets on Facebook. I hope he does that so I can tell him myself. Several of the boys on his trip were close to G also.

I know G is in a better place and is no longer suffering. She was brave until the end of her time on this earth. Her family and friends though... my heart breaks for her family and friends. This is not the typical post senior year summer for any of them, but they have some time to support each other before they head off on their separate ways to colleges all over the country.

Such a tragedy. Prayers for all - what a terrible loss.

Thanks to everyone who kept G on their prayer lists all this time. I cried a lot yesterday and thought I'd wake up today feeling strong and more prepared but that doesn't seem to be the case. Hypo spent the night with friends. I'm ready for her to be home. Of course, G's Facebook has exploded with pictures, memories and expressions of grief. I didn't see it before, but the school's video production team apparently did a short documentary on G's battle which included interviews with her twin and the band director. The documentary was made right after she was declared cancer free and was made prom queen. It's on YouTube and someone posted a link to it. That video sent me over the edge and made me sob. I needed to let loose like that, I think, and it was probably better that hypo wasn't here when it happened. It helped some. I imagine they'll be making arrangements today. I'm hoping my son will be back in time for the services. He will be upset if he isn't.

Father, I praise You for the amazing blessing of G's life. She was an amazing young lady from what I hear and her time on earth was so short but so powerful. Her story has touched the lives of many and I pray it serves as encouragement for us to live each day pursuing every blessing handed to us. Lord, please surround G's family and friends with love and comfort in their time of loss. While her body is no longer suffering, the light she gave will be truly missed. May Dee and hypo feel Your loving arms as they miss their angel and remember all of the wonderful gifts of love and laughter she has left behind.

Amen.
