Tragic waste of such a young person, do not let her death be in vain be aware of any changes in your body. May she rest in peace and my sincere condolences to her family.

Being so close to her in age, this really gets to me - it's so important to take care of yourself. This is such a sad story. I remember doing a project on the Big Brother scandal for my MA and that was barely over a year ago...
