Breathe Easy Ginger

We lost another today. H1N1 took my friend. I fucking hate CF!

She leaves behind a 6 year old son and a hubby who has been updating us all the time on FB. We heard the last one on Sunday and today everyone has been posting condolences on her page for her loss.

I am heartbroken.
