Shay Sharpe’s Pink Wishes often buys women night gowns and robes as they prepare for breast cancer surgeries. The gown pictured had a different purpose.. :: The gown pictured would possibly be the last gown worn by my friend @lindsaylouslew. Lindsay arrived in #hospice in her street clothes so I went to @walmart to buy her toiletries, undergarments and night gowns. As I parked and ran the list of items through my chemo brain again, the thought crossed my mind that I may be buying the gown my friend died in. It broke me. I sat in the truck and cried for awhile before handling the task at hand. :: Today, Lindsay’s mom handed me this gown as Lindsay didn’t get a chance to wear it, before being taken by #MetastaticBreastCancer on June 11th. I couldn’t wait to get home to take a bath and jump in it. :: Today, I also had the opportunity to sit in Lindsay’s seat at @hippodromebway for the showing of @hamiltonmusical, followed by dinner with Lindsay’s family. (The play was amazing!!!!!!) :: Time for bed. Gotta put on my nightgown. We miss you Lindsay! Sweet dreams. ~ Madame President :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: #sspw #cancer #foreverwgl #breastcancer #mbc #shaysharpespinkwishes #youngwomencananddogetbreastcancer #rip #wemissyou #teamwgl #support #hamilton #hippodrome #iammysisterskeeper #heavencouldntwaitforyou (at Shay Sharpe's Pink Wishes) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzmZpdqhsy-/?igshid=1osakfdurb24h

Lindsay M. Ruland The life of Lindsay M. Ruland (age 33) was stolen by Metastatic Breast Cancer on June 11, 2019. She loved music, horses, friends, and most of all, her lovely 4-year old daughter, Alice-- who was her everything. With a heart of unending kindness extended to all, Lindsay worked at University of Maryland Baltimore-Washington Hospital as a histologist to the very end. Three weeks before passing, Lindsay attended the Black-Eyed Susan Day and the Preakness, which were two of her greatest joys. She leaves behind Aloy L. Ruland, Jr. (father), Carol Diggs (mother), Barbara Ruland (stepmother), James Siegel (stepfather), her sweet daughter, Alice, and many loving family members and close friends. An open protestant Service of Joy will be held on June 29, 2019 at 11:00 AM at St. John’s Episcopal Church, Ellicott City, 9120 Frederick Road, Ellicott City, MD 21042.
