RIP Lauren Hill

[DiehardDukeFan4Life]

I don't know how many of ya'll are familiar with her story but her story made national headlines and was all over social media. She had an inoperable brain tumor and wasn't given long to live but she had always dreamed of playing college basketball and she was able to live her dream for a short time. Sadly she passed away today at the age of 19. RIP Lauren Hill.

Some of my favorite articles was one where her team was scheduled to play an away game but they weren't sure if she would be able to make the trip because of her health so their opponents agree to be the away team so she could play in front of her home crowd and there was another story or might've been part of the same story I just mentioned I can't remember but once the game started her teammates passed her the ball and the opposing team stepped back and let her score without guarding her.

As well as the many opponents that her team played that wanted to see her live her dream and helped her live her dream.

What a brave young lady, and a truly heart warming story. Just so sad that anyone has to go through these things, and once again, just puts things in perspective.
Life is so short, and although most of us do, we should not take anything for granted!
RIP Lauren
