I'm so Sorry it has take me so long to find you!! / Laken Selip (an Old Friend )
I don’t know if you remember me But my name is Laken Selip and I was in school with Caitlin. I was also one of the girls that brought over an Easter Basket to her house with along with another girl Nichole Mc Closkey when she was first diagnosed.
In the 8th grade she wrote me a note wanting to know how to be liked and “popular” as she called it. I simply told her “ be your self!” and that is just what she did! she also came to my house once when I had a group of friends over we had an awesome day that day.
I was in gym with her the day she passed out for the first time. I know I’m just rambling on but I’m in such shock. I had no idea that she passed away!.... I just graduated from IUP so I was away for 4 years just coming back to Lilly on some weekends holidays and summers. Everytime I got together with some of my friends from class of 2004 we had always thought about how she was or what she was up to.
This evening I was going through some things from highschool and middle school and I came across a note that stated.. Caitlin Meies E-mail- K8yluvzNsync@Aol so I decided to look her up.. and this page is what I found. I am so sorry!... I had no idea because if I would have! I would have had been right there!... I am sobbing as I write this letter so please look over any grammar or spelling mistakes!..I knew how much she loved reading and writing!
I’f you would please fill me in ! I would really like some closure… I have never stopped thinking about here… and I’m always makes comments to others in our class if they know how she is and no one did!... again I am so sorry… You had such a wonder bright artistic daughter!.. Please fill me in! I just hope she went peaceful!... and Now I can start praying to another angel!
