Hi, everyone. I didn't really know where to put this, but it looks like most of Lauren's posts were in this section, so hopefully it will be seen by the people who knew her.

So... it's been more than a month now since Lauren passed away, and I'm realizing that I never really knew her online community all that well. Maybe I was so focused on taking care of her physically that I never spent much time here. Whatever the reason for my lack of participation, I'm feeling like there was a part of my wife that I never got to know.

For those who knew her, can you please share some memories of what Lauren meant to you, favorite stories, or anything like that? I've been overwhelmed by all the prayers and well-wishes from people here; maybe, through you, I can re-capture a bit of what made Lauren special.

Thanks for anything you can share.

I wish I could have told her how much she meant to me...I loved her sense of humor--it was so wicked! She gave me much helpful advice, especially about getting Kaylee to play the freanch horn for her CF. I love how she had a little contest to name the bunny I sent her...naming it IVY...

And she loved you so Brad, always talking of you...thank you for coming back to us, it's like Lauren is saying goodbye...

She will have Mel up there with her soon, and they will have such a great party...

This is how I want to remember Lauren:

Hey Brad.

I met Lauren on blogger way back in 2005 when her blog first started. I had (have) a blog too and we just left each other comments back and forth. We also emailed a little and I cam PM you some of them if you want.

I think Lauren came into my life at the perfect time. We both had CF, both pretty newly married (in retrospect) similar situation health wise and both Christians. So we had a lot in common. I really enjoyed talking with her, and she was one of the first CFers I had talked to online.

Some of the main memories I have of her is talking about how much she loved you. We would talk about how it was nice to have such wonderful, loving husbands taking care of us. I know she took pride at being your wife. I look up to her and respect that she cooked despite feeling bad. (My husband and son have not tasted my cooking in years) And how well she took care of herself. CF really isn't fair, because I know how compliant she was with her meds.

She fought so hard and well. I know that she is with Jesus now and that He is giving her a hug and saying "well done my good and faithful servant." I so enjoyed following her blog and miss her even though we never met face to face. I can't imagine how much you must miss her. I will continue to pray for you, Brad.

God Bless,

Leah
