THREE YEARS HAVE PASSED SO QUICKLY, LOVE YOU SO MUCH SWEETIE.XXX

Shanique was the most beatiful girl in the world and my best friend.

She fought a long and brave fight with cancer but it finally claimed her on the 8th Aug 2008 aged 17 yrs.

She never complained about anything, the chemo, sickness, hair loss and even when she was told her condition was terminal!

She continued at school and passed ALL her GCSE's and enrolled in 6th Form where took History, English Lit, Law and psycology. Her aim was to go to Bristol Uni and become a Criminal Psychologist.

Her main concern was that i wasn't upset and so she planned her own funeral.
We all wore red and white and had some of her favourite songs playing at the funeral. It all went off as she would have wanted!

She was a beautiful soul who was loved by everyone who knew her.


Star To the End.

When Shanique passed away her story was reported in the local newspaper.

I was contacted by a reporter asking if they could feature a story about Shanique as her story was so uplifting. That may sound strange but let me explain.

When Shanique found out earlier this year that her condition was terminal she chose NOT to tell her friends as she didn't want to upset them as they got ready to take their exams!

She would smile, joke, and generally just be herself as she was determined to live what life she had left to the full.

Throughout everything she used to say to me please don't be sad mum and the only time she got upset was if she saw me struggling with it!

So she was a star and deserved to be on the front page of the paper so everyone could see what an inspiration she was.

Night , night sweetie. Love you, mum xx

Hi sweetie, another birthday has passed and i still can't believe how much i miss you.
You should be 20yrs old, every day i wonder what would Shanique think about this/that? I'll never know, but you were an exceptional person and are a bright shining star.
