Rest in Peace and Fly High Little Girl
So Allie died tonight. It was expected yet unexpected, beautiful yet painful, bittersweet sums it up. For 4 months she has battled the evil demon known as acute myeloid leukemia. Over the course of the past 4 months her story has brought together millions upon millions of people in the world. United them by love. In her 8 1/2 months of life on this earth she has shown people that love and good people still exist.
Allie has made me more aware of how I am as a parent. Instead of getting frustrated, I embrace things; you never know when you'll have the moment taken away. I hug Kailee tighter and kiss her a whole bunch more at night.
Leukemia is an ugly thing. It can strike anywhere, at anytime, to anyone. No one is too old or too young to get it. Allie was only 4 months old when she was dianosed. But she fought brave until the very end, and she passed with dignity.
Tonight, I've been shocked, upset, in denial, and right now I guess I'm pissed. Pissed that life had to end so suddenly for this beautiful little girl. Pissed that she won't get to experience her first birthday, angry that she wont get to go to kindergarten, to prom, etc. We will never know what she thought of in her last few minutes of life.
As her mother said will leave this world as she came in... Loved. And never knowing hate. This world is a beautiful place because of Allie.
