Someone asked that in the hub, and the answer was that she was ill for quite awhile; another post mentioned her spending nights in the hospital on MW to help alleviate whatever kind of pain she was in. Very sad-- may she rest in peace, free of pain, and may her family and loved ones find comfort and peace in her memory. - Spoonful_O_Sugar  436.2 #285 11:42AM

If u read her old posts she refers to being at UCLA a lot. There's even a comment about a transplant list. So sad she seemed like a really cool person. Way too young. - msdizmaui  518.9 #223 3:20PM

I don't even recognize the name but it seems like she was well liked by many MW's. - MXPrincess399  482.1 #246 3:59PM

From reading back, she mentioned an autoimmune condition in some of her old posts and it sounds like it destroyed her liver and a donor wasn't found in time. That's just what I've pieced together from reading and may not be completely accurate...but at any rate she sounds like she was such a sweet lady. Such a sad sad thing :( - vernswifevickie  348.6 #416 5:11AM
