debbie passed away unexpectedly yesterday very early in the morning she turned 70 exactly a month before and her family and friends threw her a nice party the photo i ve attached is one she emailed me a few weeks later with the caption this is what 70 looks like geez jesus christo i m freakin old as the hills lol i texted back and you look adorable she was always sending me selfies when samantha gave her a new haircut style or a new hair color or when she bought something cute to wear this is the last selfie she sent me i look through the slew of texts between us and i start crying again we shared a very special relationship and i have and will always treasure it a few nurse friends suspect it could possibly have been a pulmonary embolism followed by cardiac arrest which i ve read has a
