Really impressed with how the poker world has acted to this.

So sorry to hear the news, you have had such great composure during what has been such a terrible, terrible time. My thoughts go out to you and I hope that your family eventually find some peace after this dreadful tragedy.

Heaven may have found an Angel but the world has lost a shining star, God Bless Holly. xx

I've been a long time follower of the blonde forum, lurking in the shadows, watching from the outskirts,  but this is the first time i have really felt the desire to post.

A truly heart breaking story and my sincerest condolences to you and yours.

RIP Holly

I read this thread for first time on Friday and couldn't help shedding a tear hearing you talk about your daughter's bravery with such obvious pride.  I have never met you Vince, but found the story so moving I just wanted to pass on my condolences to you, and the rest of Holly's family, thoughts are with you all.

RIP Holly

Despite not knowing those involved, this thread brought more than a few tears to my eyes.

It goes to show, if you have your health and not much more in this life, you are still very fortunate.

My condolences to Holly's family

RIP

Thinking of you all today Viiny, XXxx

Hope you don't mind a little poem I saw.

God saw Holly getting tired, a cure was not to be.
He wrapped her in his loving arms and whispered ‘Come with me.’
She suffered much in silence, her spirit did not bend.
She faced her pain with courage, until the very end.
She tried so hard to stay with you but her fight was not in vain,
God took her to His loving home and freed her from the pain.

Not sure if you will get anything out of this poem ( I tend to read them a lot) as I know from experience we always think God? what God, surely if there was one this child would not be made to suffer, but then find ourselves praying again maybe to find comfort or to hold on to something, I don't know, I don't have the answers. xx
