Rest In Peace Sholene

Heaven got a new angel today, 14year old Sholene lost her long battle with bone cancer this morning in Fiji. She is now at peace and no longer in any pain.

Her mother who has sat by her bedside for the last 8 weeks has gone home with out her daughter. Her prayer every day was for a miracle to occur, for Sholene to get better so she could take her home.

Nolene her sister spent every spare moment by her sisters bedside and everytime she walked away Sholene would cry out for her to stay. The sisters often slept in the same bed at the hospital.

Her father could not stop working, however he spent weekends, mornings and evenings with Sholene.

Towards the end she could not speak or eat but on mothers day she sent me a message wishing me a happy mothers day. I will treasure this message forever.

Parents are not supposed to bury their children, nor sit by their bedside and watch them suffer. And one day I hope and pray that we will find a cure for all cancers.

In the mean time Bluesky Magic will continue to work with the Hospitals in Fiji to bring some sunshine and magic into these kids lives that creates memories for families that they can hold onto forever.
