Thank you, Goo. It's done, I added my message. It was hard. We should never wait til it's too late before we tell people that we care for them... Otherwise, it hurts like hell after.

Thanks, LTH for posting this link.
i just left a message for Suzie's family. It is amazing the impact this young lady had on this community.

Suzie's mom posted in the Guestbook and thanked to all for their posts. I think it's important for family to see how respected, inspiring and loved Suzie was by her virtual running friends.
Slow and steady never wins anything.
Yes, I read her message. I think that it may take time, but eventually, her family will take real comfort in our words. They will realize that their child's life touched a lot of people. I'm sure it will help them. We can only hope.
Proud Aussie
I've added my message. I'm a little sad that I didn't get to cross paths with her as she was the only other Australian I was aware of who posted regularly on the BF. And yet, Australia is such a huge place, it would have been more likely that I would have met her in my area on holiday rather than on a starting line.
I still feel blessed that I met her online, and saddened by her tragic loss. She will be missed.
Goal: BQ or Bust.
Bad Ass
Goo. No word on the autopsy? I know they were waiting for it. Sounds like they were very surprised about her passing.

I don't think it would be appropriate to ask and I have not seen any information, but I could imagine that Suzie would want to help future heart transplant recipients by letting medical team to find out what failed her.
I'm still so sad about her passing.
They initially posted about the autopsy in her wall but never a note on what happened afterwards. I just wonder whether I missed any updates. But you're right. Maybe they do not want to share that.
Master of Chaos
I completely missed this because I haven't been on here a lot. This is just really terrible.

So terrible! She was so young. Very sad.
Thank you LtH.
