Good friends of ours lost their daughter to leukemia (AML) Monday morning. Her name is Natalie; she was diagnosed when she was seven. She lost a long, hard battle.

A friends' words frame it best, I think:

Good morning all. I keep waiting to figure out the right thing to post, but many of us are at a loss for words. Natalie passed away at 2am yesterday morning. The Nakatanis lost their beautiful, strong and courageous little girl Natalie. Thank you to all the people who fought so hard for her to find a match for bone marrow. Thank you to all the people who prayed. Thank you to Grant and Tammy and Sean for being the best family Natalie could ever have. Thank you to God for giving her a new start, free of pain, fear and sorrow. Please continue to pray for the Nakatani family.

If you have kids, grandkids, nieces, nephews, etc., tell them how special they are every day. You never know when you might face the possibility of spending the rest of your days without them.

So sorry to hear this. I can't even imagine the pain and sorrow. They will be in my prayers.
 
That just hurts to read...I'm gonna go hug my kids. Prayers for the family.
 
I'm so sorry to hear about Natalie our kids are just so precious to us. Prayers sent and may god bless Natalie and her family.

Sincerely Doug
 
A memorial was held for Natalie today. (The family had a private one a couple weeks ago.) I'm glad her battle is over, but we're still feeling it.

I hope and pray no member here ever has to go through this. :(

My heartfelt condolences to Natalie's family and friends.
