Update, not a good one. Sorry guys, I had a feeling it would come to this;
I just received this message from Starby's Aunt;
Just a quick update. Talked to my sister tonight. They are having a meeting with the Dr. tomorrow and I will know more then... but they were called in today and told that Jo's organs are shutting down. It does not look like she will make it after all.
I feel a little stunned - even though I knew this was a strong possibility.
I'm feeling pretty low right now.
I'm so sorry to be the bearer of this news for you.
I will email you after I talk to Dona tomorrow.
I expected it, I'm sure a lot of you did too, but it doesn't make it any easier.
As soon as I know, you'll know.

The best I can for you Jo.
Fly away to the angels,
Fly away and be free.
Let your soul be at peace now;
Will you look down on me?
Are you numb or alone,
Can you hear when I speak?
Are you happy or sad,
Do you feel, do you see?
I can't understand
How it was for you.
Were you scared, did you cry?
Now I'm crying, too.
It was just yesterday-
You entered my mind.
I wondered how you were,
I remembered our times...
You could have come to me,
Though I'm sure you didn't know.
I would have been there,
Tried to soften the blow.
I can't believe that you're gone,
I read all your old letters.
You were sweet, loving, and kind,
And that's what I'll remember.
So fly away to the angels,
Fly with them and be free.
Let your soul be at peace now,
Don't forget about me.

I'm really sorry for your loss, Alty. I know it's so much larger than mine, you've known Jo longer. Chin up, girl, she's better... not here, but better

I am so sorry, alty. I must have missed something within all of these posts because I thought she had just broken her leg, and then I read that she was on support and had liver damage. Can you please take the time to explain this to me when you get a chance. I would really like to know.

It's quite a touchy subject Ms. Tick. It appears that Starby needed some help with her drinking as it had gotten way out of hand. Apparently she hid it well for us, but her family knew better. They tried to help, but they were a little too late.

Sometimes it's a blessing for the suffering to end.
If this is the end, God speed, Jo.

Jo,
I just wanted to tell you, I can't count the times I smile because of you... there are too many. YOu have never let me down, through conversations on the phone, here and on messenger... always as sweet as ever and inviting. You have been a great listener. Not only have you given me great advice, you have helped many here see the light to get back on track! Jo, you have been a wonderful friend and in my dreams I wish you can fight all this and come out on top! Lot's of love and hugs... I am with you in spirit...
Friends, think of her with good thoughts, let her stay or leave in good spirit. Hugs to all of you.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone.
I expect an update from her Aunt soon.
As the email said her organs have shut down, it's usually only a matter of time after that happens.
My prayer for her is to go peacefully, pain free, knowing how much she's loved.
It's a blessing that she came out of coma, that she got to reconcile with her family. I hope she found peace with them.
I'll keep you all posted.
I'm just the messenger, we all love her, we'll all miss her, she will never be forgotten, ever.
Keep her in our prayers, in our hearts, always.
We are her family too.

Thank you God for Jo. We put this situation in Your most capable hands. We accept what you allow even when we don't always understand it. This is all a part of Your master plan and Your way is perfect. This trial is but a stepping stone and we turn our troubles and cast our cares upon You.

In dedication to Starby:
"I will not die an unlived life. I will not live in fear of falling or
catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise. I choose to risk my significance; to live so that which comes to me as seed goes to the next as blossom and that which comes to me as blossom, goes on as fruit."
She truly lived a fulfilled life... if this is her moment to go on into the great unknown, we shall remember her, keep her alive in our hearts, and cherish the moments we shared. She will not die for us, but will continue to thrive in the minds of those who loved her.
She was and always shall be my friend.
You're loved Starby.
