Will Thompson, known as
retardedkoala here on LiveJournal, died of complications from Cystic Fibrosis on January 29, 2010. He was 25.
I didn't know him personally (just a random passer-by), but from what I can tell from his journal, he was waiting for a lung transplant. Despite his challenges, he remained optimistic while still being realistic.
I feel like we could have been friends if we knew each other in person. At any rate, I hope he made it to the other side safe and sound and is breathing easy.
Rest in peace, Will.
