Michelle, what I knew of her, was a proud person. Always kept things clean and tidy, she did not bestow her pain on anybody, she always tried to hide how she was truly feeling from people, she was always making up excuses that she felt good, but i could see past that, always full of wit and laughter, but i knew her pain deep down. As months went by she was battling with her disease, most of the time the pain did prevail over her, but she always fought back with determination, she was not quitter and for that reason alone she held on and lived beyond all expectations. A REMARKABLE WOMAN : SHE SHALL BE MY STRENGTH.
