5 years ago today Maggie Marie Mackey lost her life to Cystic Fibrosis.
The same damn thing im fighting every single day.
Maggie was a dear friend of mine and ever since she has past i havn't been the same. I think part of me went with her in a weird way. I never knew anyone who died from CF. When she died i realized it was possible that at any time that could be me, because of her everyone i love knows how much i love them, i don't hold back and not say that one little thing i wanted to say.
Maggie, im sure your having one hell of a time. some times some days i dont know if there really is a heaven. Thats my own issues but i know in my heart where ever you are your having fun smiling and breathing easy. 5 years ago today i lost my friend but heaven got an angel.

Jess, that was a very beautiful blog post. Maggie loved you very much. I know how difficult it is, to see a friend with the same disease die. I experienced it with Maggie. She lost 2 friends from CF. Amanda when Maggie was I think about 10 and Mathew, when Maggie was 13. It does have an effect on you. But I hope you have used it as a lesson, to try to take better care of yourself. You know, I sit here and think all the time maybe if...but I know it's not healthy for me. However, I know the one thing Maggie could've done differently, was exercise on a regular basis. So, remember that, please, exercise exercise exercise....keep those lungs healthy. Sorry to be lecturing, just hoping I can pass on some advice by experience here. Well, I love you girl, very much and I worry about you! So please, if you ever need anything let me know!! Oh and when I ever DO get that money sent to you, I decided I want you to just use it on you instead. It's been so long since great strides now...I'm awful with remembering things, really bad!!! Well keep your chin up and a smile on your face. Maggie will be guiding you....
maggie has guided me in so many ways especially right now...i think i got what she is trying to tell me and i promise maggie ill do what i can. Shelly iam exercising and trying to take care of myself i appreciate you caring enough to lecture me. i love you too :)
