It is with great sadness that I pass along the news from Lauren McCullough’s parents that this brave warrior now has her wings. As I, many of you were touched by her amazing spirit while battling terminal cancer at an incredibly young age. She was truly an inspiration to us all.
I’d like to share with you some of my favorite words of wisdom from Lauren.
From Lauren – December 02, 2013
“I may have been given incredibly unfair cards in life, but these are the ones that I have been dealt and these are the ones that I need to make the most of. Since my life will most likely be cut very short, there is no reason for me to waste my time feeling bad. I am going to focus on things that I can accomplish and knock things off of my bucket list. I just take whatever opportunities are given to me and have fun.
If I can somehow stay positive throughout facing my mortality at such a young age, then I believe others should stay positive too.
Maybe I do not need that whole lifetime to impact people, I sure would like one, but sometimes the ones who are here the least amount of time leave the biggest impression.” – Lauren McCullough
You did indeed leave a big impression Lauren and I will honor your wish for us to stay positive. It was an honor to have known you. love, b
