Bobbie was my older sister, my only sister. She was only 24 years old when she passed away. She had an unusal birth defect where her veins were weak. Never heard of anyone having such a defect. The last couple of years she lived she was in and out of the hospital because her veins would burst and cause hemorrhaging. She endured several surgeries trying to correct the problem, but nothing would hold and another vein would become weak. Her last hemorrhage was so severe it blocked oxgen to her brain which caused her death.
Most people did not know this about Bobbie because she lived a very normal life. After she graduated she got a job working at Provident in downtown Chattanooga. She had moved into her own apartment, bought a new blue camaro, and was living a fun full life. She was a blessing to everyone who knew her. Our family and her friends were cheated by her early death. I have such funny memories of Bobbie of when we were growing up. We shared a bedroom and Oh if those walls could talk (lots of girl talk, haha). I find peace today just knowing that one day we will be sharing the same house again with our Lord and she will have a perfect body.
