Hey guys...I am so sorry to hear of this awful loss. Emily, you shouldnt feel like you do...but I know what its like. When I lost my first CF friend, I had lost complete contact with her and I felt so sorry that I didnt call when I knew she was sick. Its such a guilty feeling and you know deep in your heart that you shouldnt feel that way. The person who died wouldnt want you to feel that way, but you do. In addition, I had a dream about my friend Kay who passed away in december, I was finally able to talk and hang out with her. And lastly I was able to hug her, which is what I wanted to do all along...Its nice to know that they visit us in our dreams. I believe that it is their way of telling us they are ok. Have faith that everything happens for a reason, and she is now breathing easy.
RIP Colleen...I will say a prayer for you! Breathe Easy!
