So sad, so young! But a long struggle it sounds like. All her trials are over. Just wishing her parents strength and comfort.

[BobBlaney]

My prayers are with her and her folks.
Heaven gets another angel, she has no more suffering.
So young, so much lost.

Sad indeed. The family can use our prayers. Paul

I am not perfect, but I believe and fear the almighty God! There is nothing more scornful than hate! My prayers extend to this family for such a tragic loss. Rick Santorum, a presidential hopeful has a daughter with a disease that can debilitate her and take her life at any time as she is inflicted with trisomy 18. My prayers and support go out to him, his family, and his very precious little daughter, Bella. I say a special prayer and blessing for all children that are inflicted and at a crossroad in their lives, because for them every day is so precious and special! I have a niece we nearly lost to Leukemia... The only girl of the immediate family. I thank God for the doctors of Geisinger children's hospital for the tireless efforts to bringing back Brianna... I am forever indebted to these people as they are special stewards given unto us, for the wonderful things they do!

God works in mysterious ways when beautiful Little Angels suffer with
severe illness,like this Sweet Child touched many hearts and probably
made better people like us understand how fragile is how fragile life can
be. If it is a comfort for her parents,God now has her in his domain where
she no longer is suffering,my condolences for her parents in their sad
loss of this beautiful Little Angel.

This took place not far from where I live. It is a story that will just rip your heart apart.
Kathleen had Huntington's, a degenerative brain disease that also took the life of her mother and grandfather. In 2010 she was the victim of cruel taunts on Facebook. Her grandmother's neighbor posted a picture of Kathleen with a skull and crossbones and a photo of her mother, Laura, in the arms of the Grim Reaper. When the news crews showed up the neighbor was horrible. I am sure you can find it somewhere on Youtube. I just couldn't believe someone could be that nasty.
Recently the neighbor was on the Dr. Phil show. I won't get into it now but she did try to say she was sorry.
How can humans be so cruel? I have to believe that there is a special place close to God for Kathleen.

Rick yes I did a carving for that little girl as well. I was shocked when I heard it was the same child that was on Dr Phil. I watched the show that was horrible I also dont know how two people could be so hateful over a forgotten Birthday invitation. I also watched the couple that posted those pictures and I am sorry. I dont care how many sorry's you say who could ever forgive you. May she and her mom rest in peace and those people will have to live their hell on earth for what they have done. It will never go away it will haunt them for the rest of their lives.
