shelbyparisxox: #loss #sadness #tragic #heartbreak As most of you know, I lost my god sister. She is my best friend and someone I grew up with. She was my sister. She passed away tragically. Please share this post. Here’s a story from her friend Molly that was there: I cannot begin to explain the horror and emptiness and overwhelming sadness of the past 27 hours. It was supposed to be our easiest day of trekking - all downhill, out of the freezing elevation, toward an afternoon spent soaking in the hot springs. There was a tremendous storm the night before, giving way to a sunny morning of butterflies and wild strawberries and vividly green terrain as we hiked 100 ft above the river. We were 2 hours and 47 minutes downhill from the village we camped at when the earth simply fell out from under her. It was impossibly fast. I scrambled into the trees and around the collapsed trail and I screamed and started running to the next village and I called for help at a house across the river gorge and I continued until I reached another, much larger and impossible to cross collapse and had to turn back and I ran until I puked and never stopped screaming and there were 6 people looking for her before I made it the 10 miles uphill to the village. We all lost one of the kindest, most enthusiastic, optimistic, loving, and loyal humans yesterday. She has brightened my existence for over a decade, and she means everything to so many people. I am indescribably sorry for everyone’s pain. I am working to get home, and I am doing everything I can from Peru to make sure Whitney Alicia Stevens gets home, too. Repatriation is extremely costly, so PLEASE go to Black Hills Federal Credit Union and donate whatever you can to the Whitney Stevens Memorial Fund. I love you all. I am so sorry. I am so sorry.
