Dear Deborah,And all who loved you,(that’s a whole lot).I write this with a heavy heart.You have made your way over to the other side, wherever that may be.And I have written so much about you recently, because you made an impact, you see.An impact on the way I viewed my life, the world we live in, and the time that we are allocated here, on this earth.You made an impact on all of us.Your departure was carried out (by you), with such style, such grace, such honesty and such gumption.Though I know you did not want to go.And none if it is fair.Not even remotely.But still, you showed us all how to leave a room.Better than when you came in.And all I can say right now, through tears, is that you really mattered.And you reminded us that we matter too.We will not forget you, so much so, that I suggest we all continue to ‘buy you a drink’,on this day,every year…Let’s buy a drink for Deborahon the same day of each yearwe have known a true earth angeland those don’t just disappear…Donna Ashworth
Will wear my 'Rebellious hope' tomorrow
A day of mixed emotions.
So sad for her family.
So pleased for my DS who has his official acceptance today for his return to university in August.

Well done to ds. Hope you’re a very proud mama 👍👏👏👏
Deborah was indeed a very inspirational lady…….bet she has saved a lot of people by getting them to check the 💩. She certainly lived life to the full just how it should be lived. It’s just so sad that she had to leave such a young family. I’m imagining they’ll have amazing memories but it’s not the same as having a mum. Hopefully the money she raised will go towards finding better treatment and one can only dream for a cure. She certainly left a legacy…….January spends - £587.587 -
