An emotional goodbye

Dear Friends...

This morning was a particularly difficult one for me.  It was my friend's funeral. In 2009 she was diagnosed with Leukaemia.  Then in 2010, a miracle happened.  She found a donor, in Germany, and had a bone marrow transplant.  My friend was a true fighter.  She battled with all the effects of graft vs host and what it did to her body.  She had good days and bad days.  Unfortunately her body was not able to fight the bad days as well and they started to outweigh the good ones.  She passed away on Saturday afternoon.

At 11 am we said our farewells to her.  Her husband, daughter (9 years old), father, brother and the rest of her family were totally distraught.  My heart went out to them.

Goodbye my friend... till we meet again.
