Update~Love for Lexi

It is with sincere regret and a huge lump in my throat that I inform you of the death of a very brave girl. Lexi Georgeff died last night during transplant surgery. She was pronounced dead at 9:30 p.m. Eastern. After two previous tries at a transplant, she was undergoing the procedure when the surgeons discovered an infection that they were unaware of. Once the transplant was begun, it was too late to turn back, so they pressed forward, but it was too much for Lexi. She was 14 years old.

Fields of Gold~Sting
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in fields of gold
So she took her love for to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold
Will you stay with me, will you be my love
Among the fields of barley
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in fields of gold
See the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of barley
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the fields of gold
I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We'll walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold
Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
Among the fields of gold
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold

That is such horrible news. Any life lost is a tragedy. When it's a child - it is worse. Thoughts, love and prayers to her family and friends.

OMG! This is so sad and tragic. I am so sorry..I checked out the website earlier this week from your comment on Ro's Blog.

My deepest sympathy go out to the family and who knew Lexi.

On a side note..The photo reminds me of Ro's daughter Cheslea a few yrs older.
