Never ever give up

I haven't posted in almost two months because of work and then holidays, but I just feel like I need to post this now:

Today an incredibly courageous little girl died from brain cancer. Her name was Jessica Joyce Rees, but we knew her as the "Never Ever Give Up" girl because she and her father, after learning of her diagnosis last spring, started a small charity that gave "Joy Jars" filled with little toys to other kids who have cancer. They named their charity "NEGU" for Never Ever Give Up.

As Jessie's condition worsened this morning, her father posted on Facebook that their hearts were broken. Our hearts are broken too.
