This is kinda long and taken from another site. It's about Alex Rockwell, you probably have never heard of her, but her story is sad and at the same time inspiring.
Spoiler:
Quote:
My name is Alexandria Rockwell
|
Quote:
I'm a 17 year-old high school graduate
|
Quote:
I love to do a lot of things
|
Quote:
Laugh, read, write, especially eat.
|
Quote:
But, there's one thing I REALLY love to do
|
Quote:
That is something I believe Alex really did. Alex Rockwell was born with Cystic Fibrosis. For people that don't know what that is, Cystic fibrosis is a disease passed down through families that causes thick, sticky mucus to build up in the lungs, digestive tract, and other areas of the body. It is one of the most common chronic lung diseases in children and young adults. It is a life-threatening disorder.

Quote:
Alex had always been a constant fighter, whether she was in her hospital bed
|
Quote:
Cystic Fibrosis may be a struggle,
|
Quote:
but Alex had never let it take over her life.
|
Quote:
She wouldn't go down without a fight.
|
Quote:
When Alex wasn't at the hospital, she was your regular teenager for the most part. She had lways had a cooky sense of fashion, but she always made it work.
|
Quote:
She was obsessed with gummy worms
|
Quote:
She loved shooting arrows
|
Quote:
And she'd love to goof around
|
Quote:
Sadly, however, on April 26, 2013, Alex Rockwell lost her fight. She died at the University of Michigan's hospital around 3am.
|
Quote:
She gave Cystic Fibrosis one hell of a fight
|
Quote:
And touched hundreds of peoples hearts
|
Quote:
I know not many of you will really care about this, or even read, but I feel that Alex will always be inspiring myself and others for the rest of eternity. Breathe easy, Alex.
|
Quote:
So yes, I do love to inspire, and I can
|
Quote:
It's not because of this illness
|
Quote:
Tubes of oxygen, IV antibiotics, and nebulizers could easily hold me back
|
Quote:
I will cry, become lost and pissed off, & I'll want to give up at times
|
Quote:
I will smile, become stronger and wiser, and I will fight through it all
|
Quote:
I may not be cured, but I already beat this disease
|
Quote:
My name is Alexandria Rockwell
|
Quote:
I have Cystic Fibrosis, but it doesn't, and never will, have me.
