I don't know if anyone remembers a thread I made last week discussing my friend who was nearing the end with her battle with cancer. Well she passed away on Saturday October 25 at 9:37AM. She was 20 years old. I didn't want to post this while I was still extremely emotional. I just got back from her funeral a bit ago, and I am still pretty upset, but at the same time I feel lucky that I was her friend. She was one of the greatest people I have ever known, and I am a better person for having known her.
I will never forget the last thing she said to me. As she laid on her couch in terrible pain barely able to talk she mustered up a lot of strength to say, "it's good to see you." She then smiled and held my hand for a bit. I didn't stay long as she was too weak to handle people being over her house, but I told her I loved her and that she still looked beautiful. She smiled at me, and I said my good bye.
As I reflect now I realize just how much I am going to miss her. She was a light in my life, and I know that there is a special place in heaven for a girl like her. Rest in Peace Gemma Marie Glass. You were taken from us way too soon, but in your death I hope people realize what true strength really is. I love you my friend, and I hope to one day see you again.
