[@betsybabf748]

Always know, suicide doesn't end pain at all. It multiples it by 1000 and hands it to those you love to endure until they day. I am a suicide widow. My husband of 23 yrs shattered me and my life and left me with with 5 grieving children. I found his body. I'll never be the same person, and my world died that morning too. That's not what you ever want to do to those you love, but often people just don't realize that it gives others far more pain to endure than one is trying to escape.

From Laura McHolm, Chairman of the Board Last night at 6:00pm, Claire Wineland our inspirational founder passed away. She was not in any pain and the medical staff said it was the most peaceful passing they had ever witnessed. She was surrounded by love and with her mother Melissa Yeager and father John Wineland; they saw her into this world for her first breath and were with her for her last. She suffered a massive stroke on August 26th after a successful double lung transplant. The stroke was caused by a blood clot. After a week of intensive care and various life saving procedures, it became clear that it was Claire’s time to go. Yesterday, Claire’s family and a few very close friends came to say their final farewells and offer their support to the family. In Claire fashion, she is an organ donor. Claire’s remarkable family were so happy for the other families that were now getting the calls that the organ they had long been waiting for was now available for transplant. They had been on the receiving end of that call just one short week ago. We know Claire was loved all over the world. Your prayers, support and encouraging words, have been a huge source of strength for her and her family. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your massive amazing out pouring of love. We are asking to please give the family privacy at this time. They have so generously shared their lovely Claire’s remarkable journey with us all, but now is the time to give them some peace from the public spotlight. They will emerge eventually, but please give them the time to come to terms with their family member's passing. In lieu of flowers, the family is asking for donations to be made to Claire’s foundation. Claire’s Place Foundation is committed to upholding Claire’s legacy by assisting Cystic Fibrosis families in need. In the words of our precious founder Claire Wineland: “Death is Inevitable. Living a life we can be proud of is something we can control.” You sure made the whole world proud of you Claire! She was one red hot spark of inspiration and joy, wasn’t she? Rest In Peace Sweet Warrior Claire, we will continue where you left off. Hug your loved ones close, Laura

[@AnthoneikaSada]

Claire died a few hours ago (September 3rd 2018). She deserved to live and she was excited to. As cliche as it sounds she helped me in some dark times. I’m so glad to have had her in my life even though I didn’t know her personally. She made the impact that she wanted to have and I hope she knew that. Claire, you’re deeply loved, and will be sorely missed. You’re free now.

August 26th was the day she had her transplant and the stroke, I believe. She was in a coma for a week, until her family decided to remove the life support, and she actually died on September 2nd. But it wasn't announced until the 3rd. :(

Mr. Green This is such a beautiful emotional video and you had to ruin it with your horrendous comment.. Everyone is different.

Learn how to love and accept people for their differences and their beliefs. Don't bash others and bring them down with you. Don't be that person that spreads nasty negativity, trying to convince people into what you believe. The thing is you're so rude, and it makes you look bad. Understand? That's just the truth.

[@ramywiles]

It feels utterly cruel that she had to be one of the unlucky few that have a stroke after the transplant. That's what's really eating at me. The transplant was successful. She was going to get the time she needed to do all she wanted to do. That's why it took me until just now to find out that she died; I saw the initial update after surgery and put it out of my mind, because I thought she was going to be fine. I just hope that I can take her perspective on living and dying on board. I'm terrified of death, but to have encountered (even virtually) someone with such a bold, honest take on it all is something that I still value very deeply. Her video about what it's like to die rocked me to my core, and that as well as the videos discussing the transplant were full of reminders that life is good, that good things happen every day, that it's ok to be hopeful for the future. She talked in the transplant videos as well about wanting to do more, to give back something... it hurts to think she wasn't content with the things she had already said, but I wish more than anything that I could let her know that those messages were what she gave back. Her perspective is what she gave back. And it's a gift that I'm still working on accepting, but one that I know I'm better for. I'm so, so sorry, Claire.

Dear Clair, I didn't know much about you, I wasn't even subscribed to your channel. But I miss you. I don't know how that is possible, how you are able to miss someone you've never met. But then again it isn't surprising that I do. I mean just from watching this I can tell that you were such an amazing person, you were strong, talented, passionate, and brave. And that's only naming a few of your best qualities. And I'm so angry, angry that I didn't know about your passing sooner, angry that someone like you was taken from this world too soon and it isn't fair, it isn't fair. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm sorry that you had to live with this sickness and that your life was so short. But then again I'm not because you were ready for this, you knew that this was coming, you were able to accomplish so much with your life in such a short amount of time. So I want to say thank you, I know it's silly. You aren't here, you can't read this but I'm writing it anyway. So Thank you, thank you for giving me another reason for wanting to live. Like you were dying, but you still lived, and a lot of the time I know that I'm alive but I want to die. But whenever I find a new reason to live I cherish it and I'm going to cherish the memory of you. So thank you Clair, I know you Probably wouldn't want this but I'm going to live for you, well not for you. You lived your life and you accomplished great things, but I'm going to carry on living because that's what you would have wanted, I'm going to live a life I'm proud of like you did. Goodbye Claire and I hope you find peace wherever you end up, and I hope one day, when or whenever it is our paths meet, because I wish I had the chance to meet someone as amazing as you.
