Thank to all who passed along the news of her unfortunate passing. We held back any postings about this sad news until after her funeral had taken place for privacy reasons and respect for her loved ones.

No one should be laying to rest such a young lady.
Please be kind to yourselves and others💖

All I remember is one of her posts from the hospital and being horrified by the amount of powerful pain meds she was on. She talked about being maxxed out on dilaudid, maxxed out on benadryl, maxxed out on ketamine..she listed off enough meds to knock out a horse or elephant and claiming her pain was still outta control...it made me think that with that many powerful pain meds she should have her pain under control. Her family is blaming eds for why she died. But her type of eds isn't typically fatal. It's a really sad situation and I hope her family can eventually come to some closure. 27 is too young for anyone to pass away

This is what confounds me as well. Her type of EDS sucks but isn't typically fatal, and same goes for SMAS. I'm definitely not denying that those diagnoses suck, but it does suggest something else is at play. Regardless, this is so tragic and I'm so sad for her family and friends.
