“You can shed tears that she is gone, or you can smile because she has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that she’ll come back, or you can open your eyes and see all she’s left.
Your heart can be empty because you can’t see her, or you can be full of the love you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember her only that she is gone, or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back.
Or you can do what she’d want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on.”
- David Harkins

Oh my god. Havent heard from shelly in years. What happened

Rashell died from complications relating to a medical condition that arose around Christmas of 2008. Despite a rather lengthy stay in the hospital and surgery, her doctors were unable to pinpoint the source of the problem.

I’m sorry but your info is not complete. Rashell died because Dr. Phillips Hospital was not concerned about her enlarged spleen and why her platelets continued to drop. Had they done their job they would have found she had ITP and auto immune disease where the spleen destroys all platelets instead of just the old ones. Rashell’s platelets dropped to low which caused her to have a seizure which caused her death. All of which started due to BIRTH CONTROL pills.

Thanks for filling in the gaps, Carol. I knew there was more to the story than what I wrote, but I didn’t know ALL the details so I wrote “complications”. I’m sorry for your loss.

I understand. I only knew her for a few years and I got to visit her in the hospital. I couldn’t make it to her service so I posted this instead. It amazes me how often people visit this page…she was loved by many, many people.

I wanted to say thanks for this site and the love you put into creating it. I get a bit crazy at times and say to much, use to make Shell crazy. I just happened to stumble across this site on a really bad day. Did not mean to snap your head off. Again thank you for the beautiful words. She would love that you and so many others love and remember her. Please continue to do so. With all my heart thanks.
