It was during the lengthy presentations at Lupus concerts that i came to know how bad the disease was. Gee fought and lived through it all. She made music and lived despite living with such a bad health condition. “You lived your life like a candle in the wind.”
Seeing a purple ribbon will always remind me of you. FYI, the purple ribbon is for Lupus.
Just a quick look at what Lupus is:
Lupus is a long-term autoimmune disorder that affects multiple organs of the body. The immune system, instead of protecting gets hyperactive and begins to attack the healthy tissues, leading to severe fatigue.
Lupus has severe financial implications as most of the prescriptions are not available in government hospitals
Although i didn’t reach out in your last days, i am comforted by the fact that i attended all your events.
Rest in peace Gee, you ran your race. A good race.
Your achievements will live on forever.
