There are almost no words, but I feel I must pay tribute to the brave people, and their friends and families, who have lost their fight against cancer in the last few days. Donna Summer, Robin Gibb, and Ellie Jeffery. Donna Summer and Robin Gibb gave me the soundtrack to my teenage years. Ellie's story has dominated my conscience since Mom died in August last year.
I discovered Ellie's blog quite by chance and I was immediately struck by the honesty of her writing. Ellie died on Friday. She was just 29 years old. This is Ellie's blog, with a final entry written by Tom, who she was going marry in June.
RIP.
