I've been flooded with various emotions the last two days. I've felt extreme pain, utter depression, complete emptiness, and guilt. Even with experiencing that gamut I just can't imagine the pain that my friends, the Havivy's, have gone through. It's that moment that's the most telling though, the moment right when you get the bad news....

I ran. I went outside and ran and ran, and sobbed a few blocks from my house. I wished that I had done more, I wished that I could've spent more time with the family as well as Kiki, I wished that there was a miracle or an opportunity for me to change places with her. I coughed and vomited, then returned home exhausted and empty.

As most of you reading this know, little Kiki succumbed to cancer on the 7th of June after battling it for years. Her family did everything in their power to help her in whatever way they could. Thanks to Tara Strong, more and more bronies became aware of her and banded together to help the family. This included a few people whom I met and are proud to call friends. We had planned a charity album to raise funds and awareness. We had meet-ups where we raffled off items to raise funds and awareness. We tweeted, posted statuses, called people, sent letters, and did everything we could think of to help that little angel.

But she left us. Though I'm thankful she's not in any pain anymore, I can't believe she's in a better place. The best place she could possibly be would be in her family's arms, happy and smiling. And it kills me that she's not there. And it kills me. And I can't possibly imagine how much worse it must feel for the Havivy's. All I know is that they are incredibly strong people who will help each other in this horrible time, and that the amount of love they all possess is utterly astonishing.

So please, bronies, never forget Kiki or the Havivy family. Send them your love at kikiandami on twitter. Let's take this experience and let's do something incredible with it. Help out at a Ronald McDonald House, give blood, volunteer at a hospital, donate to Cancer Research, and send your love to all those incredible people out there who are suffering from cancer or lost a loved one to it. If there's one thing we bronies have in abundance, it's love....and never be afraid to share that. Your cup runneth over and shall never empty, bronies.

I love and miss Kiki terribly, and I know that regardless of the amount of time I spent with her it would've never been enough. I love the Havivy family with all my heart, and I know that they know I'm here for them.

Sorry if this has become disjointed, but I'm currently sobbing over typing this. All I can really say is goodbye. Goodbye sleeping, beauty. Goodbye, you precious wonderful loving girl. You went too soon but you left a mark on all of our hearts. I'll never forget you.

Rest in peace.

I like to believe that we get to live in our dreams upon passing over. Perhaps Kiki is now in a world with her parents and family made up to be like whatever she found most enjoyable while here on earth.
