Guest guest Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 I do know that physically bulked up military soldiers can end up hospitalized from dehydration and other side effects of malaria pills. Taya died with the heart of a warrior in action. It's sad to lose people we admire, look up to, and care about, but she was living out the things she wanted to do. To me that's not a bad way to cross over. > > Taya worked for the Abilis-foundation (www.abilis.fi). They fund projects which help disabled people in third world countries. The idea is to find work for the disabled, so they can support themselves. There are several project-descriptions on their website, as well as pictures of Taya. One project I remember included buying a cow for a woman, so she could sell the milk. Other one was funding for a wheelchair-repair shop in Zambia. > There are others working for the same foundation, so her work will be continued. The foundation just prefers hiring disabled people or their close relatives, so finding someone as capable as Taya will be difficult. > > Re: Sad news > > > I'm also very sorry to hear about Taya's passing.

I am constantly amazed at the way SMA adults don't just sit around, but work to make a better world (yes, the pun was intended.) I hope Bernie will grow up to be that kind of person too. It would be very interesting to hear more about the project she was working on. I hope someone will carry on her work there. bettylou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
