Happy Birthday to Lisa, the founder of this group, which is the longest running thalassemia forum on earth. Lisa Cammilleri would have turned 50 years old today.
It's not a happy time on earth, Lisa. At times like this, I realize how much I miss your way of making everyone laugh and forget everything for a minute. It's something we could all use right now, as we're faced with a serious crisis on earth. You'd probably joke about being the lucky one who doesn't have to go through this mess. At times like this, we realize that without friendship, we humans have very little. Your friendship has stuck with me all these years, guiding me and helping me carry on your dream.
And even after 16 years, I still cannot talk about you without crying. I so miss my little sis.
Happy Birthday in heaven, Lisa. Send us a blessing. We need one.
