My sister's niece passed away last night. She was 19 years old and had a very severe case of Marfan's. She wasn't expected to live when first born so she has been a miracle all her life in more ways than 1.
She had at least 2 open heart surgeries to make room in her tiny chest to make room for heart and numerous other procedures, surgeries and hospital stays. Her mother passed away 2 years ago from ALS after living longer than what was ever expected also. Last night Nicole was taken to the hospital having problems breathing, she refused any treatment...she'd had enough in her young life and was ready to rest. I truly believe she and her mom have been reunited. May we all live life as bravely and with such fullness as these two beautiful women did in their short lives. God Bless you Nicole, Melinda and your families!

It's so hard when they go young. But she's at peace now, and I also believe she's been reunited with her Mother. And they're both in a better place.
