That was so sad. She was only 60 and she could still walk.
Why did she want to die?????

Shouldn't this be in the MS section, rather than the fun
section?

My heart goes out to her family but it sounded like she was at peace with whatever the flood brought.

Personally I pray something other than MS takes me even if it happens sooner rather than later.

She did not die from MS. Like others without MS, she died in the terrifying Colorado floods. Carpe Diem!! There are sharks in the water, we go swimming anyway. Lightening sometimes kills people, we play in the rain anyway. I like her house, wouldn't you want to stay there too?

I guess I just didn't get over the fact that she didn't want to fight
to live. I wasn't in her shoes, however!!!

This is very personal I guess but I often think the "fight to live" is over-rated.

In many cases I admire those who accept death with dignity and grace more than those who attempt to fight to the bitter end.
