Claire Wineland: Someone Who Needs to be Remembered.
Claire Wineland passed away yesterday. She was the most inspirational person to me and changed my life.
She had cystic fibrosis, a degenerative genetic disease that causes a thick mucus to line all your organs but the lungs are the most impacted and make breathing hard. She used oxygen and had to do daily treatments for hours and hours every day.
At 21 years old, she defied all the odds. She survived for so many years with this condition but did it all with a beautiful, light filled smile. She spoke of death with such truth and talked about how beauty filled her short life was. She spoke in poems that were so true and something that everyone needs to hear. She had the wisdom of a century old monk and the sense of humor of a teenager.
She was beautiful, in every sense of the word.
She left her foundation, Claire's Place, as her legacy. It helps countless families. Please donate if you can and if you can't please share this.

She has also done multiple tedtalks that can be found on YouTube or the TED website.
It doesn't matter if this isn't characteristic of your blog. This girl is worth spreading around.

My fellow Red Banders, last night we lost an amazing, beautiful, funny, honest, and generous human being. Claire Wineland was an incredible person and this world is a little less bright without her light in it. Claire always said that it was possible to be sick and to live a life that you’re proud of. If you want to help support her legacy, you can donate to her foundation.

“Last night at 6:00pm, Claire Wineland our inspirational founder passed away. She was not in any pain and the medical staff said it was the most peaceful passing they had ever witnessed.
She was surrounded by love and with her mother Melissa Yeager and father John Wineland; they saw her into this world for her first breath and were with her for her last.
She suffered a massive stroke on August 26th after a successful double lung transplant. The stroke was caused by a blood clot. After a week of intensive care and various life saving procedures, it became clear that it was Claire’s time to go.
Yesterday, Claire’s family and a few very close friends came to say their final farewells and offer their support to the family.
In Claire fashion, she is an organ donor. Claire’s remarkable family were so happy for the other families that were now getting the calls that the organ they had long been waiting for was now available for transplant. They had been on the receiving end of that call just one short week ago.
We know Claire was loved all over the world. Your prayers, support and encouraging words, have been a huge source of strength for her and her family. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your massive amazing out pouring of love.
We are asking to please give the family privacy at this time. They have so generously shared their lovely Claire’s remarkable journey with us all, but now is the time to give them some peace from the public spotlight. They will emerge eventually, but please give them the time to come to terms with their family member's passing.
In lieu of flowers, the family is asking for donations to be made to Claire’s foundation.
Claire’s Place Foundation is committed to upholding Claire’s legacy by assisting Cystic Fibrosis families in need.
In the words of our precious founder Claire Wineland: “Death is Inevitable. Living a life we can be proud of is something we can control.”
You sure made the whole world proud of you Claire!
She was one red hot spark of inspiration and joy, wasn’t she? Rest In Peace Sweet Warrior Claire, we will continue where you left off.
Hug your loved ones close,
Laura
Laura McHolm
Chairman of the Board
Claire's Place Foundation”
I now have no one else who I follow who also has cf. I’ve known about Claire for a very long time and my mom is friends with her mom.
Donations and awareness is so important you guys. We need a cure for this disease. Cystic Fibrosis is the most common genetic disease in America. It is terminal, which means it ends in death, and it has no cure.
