I rarely do this, but this is really needed. A girl that graduated from our high school a few years after me was in Colorado on Spring Break. Tuesday, she was in a very serious skiing accident and suffered severe brain trama. Yesterday, they decided that it was not going to get any better, and took her off life support. She was only 21, was amazingly beautiful, healthy and sweet. She has an older sister and a younger brother (that is still in high school). To make matters worse, she was with her two absolute best friends from high school, and they both had to be witness to this entire ordeal. Like, unseperable best friends. We are a community of only 800 people, so we all know each other very well, and this hits very close to home as she was in the same grade as Jeff's little sister.
Her parents were able to make the most selfless and beautiful decision to donate all of her organs. I hope it gives them slight peace knowing that many other lives will be saved thanks to their decision.
Please send out some prayers for her family and friends.
