Tragic ending to a Tough Battle




I have been following the story of a magnificent young lady named Jasmine Anema since last year when the story broke of her having a severe and rare type of Leukemia. Since then Celebrities, Politicians and normal people alike have come to the aid of this brave little girl, urging bone marrow donors to come forth. It saddens me to have learned via her twitter page @ONEFORJASMINA, that she has lost her courageous battle.
Please don't let this tragedy go without continued support! Jasmina was able to show the world that courage come in any package big or small and that faith and a smile makes any day brighter. Below are several links that you can go to for further learning on Jasmina and Leukemia...

My prayers go out to Jasmina's Family, Friends and especially her best friend Isabelle bravely fought this disease with Jasmina.
