A Day Before Her Death, This 27-Year - 1

A Day Before Her Death, This 27-Year-Old Wrote A Letter, And Every Person Should Read It

“[Life] is fragile, precious and unpredictable and each day is a gift, not a given right,” Butcher starts the letter that she wrote just a day before passing. The 27-year-old lost her battle with Ewing’s sarcoma , a rare type of cancer that is most common amongst teenagers and young adults. This heartbreaking diagnosis, however, didn’t stop her from spreading the love for life.

The letter encourages everyone to look around and enjoy the moment. Read the full message below and go ahead, eat that cake, call that friend, dance to that song you love so much, and breathe because there is nothing better in life than living.
