Our long time member and friend JustBreathe passed away on September 7, 2023. She was a loving wife, mother, daughter, aunt, and friend. She was known for her contagious smile, her courageous heart, and her compassionate nature. These are the words by which she chose to live, & her life reflected them perfectly:
Every moment is a choice and that is a beautiful gift. I choose to be grateful.
Though we couldn’t physically see her smile on our forum, we could feel it coming through many of her posts. Because of her physical therapy background JustBreathe was a fountain of information and helped many of our members better understand what was happening in their bodies.
@Natty04 became good friends w/ JustBreathe apart from this forum and shared these thoughts:
I first spoke with Nicole in 2020 on this wonderful support group and we quickly developed a unique bond, through both having chronic health conditions. As some of you will have encountered as I did, Nicole was such an empathetic, helpful and selfless lady. Nicole got me through some of my darkest moments. She was one of the most sweetest, kindest and loving souls I have ever come across. I will miss our chats so much and hearing her soothing voice. May she now rest in peace 
JustBreathe will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her as well as those who benefitted from her knowledge & sunshiny disposition on our forum. Her memory will forever live on in the hearts of those she touched.
