I was devastated, and very angry when I heard the news of Donielle's passing. I'm still angry that the world locked down on her while she was fighting harder than anyone I knew. We didn't get to say goodbye, and we still have a lot to learn about that time. She was a ray of light, and she often crosses my mind as I reflect on all the friends and family members who have passed away since 2020. Her situation, though, is the hardest to accept. I don't even have the words to express how it feels, knowing she was left alone, with no one to comfort her. Looking back, I am filled with anger. She didn't deserve to be treated that way. She was fighting, and yet the world the hospital, the nurses, doctors, surgeons, and everyone involved and complied with the chaos, and now she's gone, never to return. She had more fight in her than all those people combined. 

I pray she is comfortable in heaven and hope to God she didn't suffer more than she already had due to the ignorance of those who left her alone, without even a familiar hand to hold. I will always and forever remember her smile, her style, and her sweet personality. How hard she fought stands out in my mind, and I can't forget that she was the first person I personally knew to get trapped in a hospital because of C19 and all the corruption surrounding it. She deserved better. She was loved, and she still is. She deserved to be surrounded by family and friends.

I pray that justice will find its way to all the families who had loved ones suffer alone while fighting battles they weren't planning on losing. I won't forget this it’s what my heart sings when I think of her. I love and miss her! I'll never forget the day I found out, and that pain has stayed with me all this time. It will never go away the injustices done to so many who were fighting for their lives. 

Godspeed, Lala. You are not forgotten. Never, and not by me. My condolences to her family, I hope they know we all would've been there for her if we could've. I pray you have found some peace, and I send my love and care to you.
