This Girl Died Recently And Her Parents Just Discovered The Secret She Left Behind Her Mirror

By
#1 Athena Orchard At 12-Years-Old Was Like Any Teenager..

 Living in Leicester, UK, Athena was beautiful, cheerful and had plenty school friends when she'd found a lump on her head. She didn't think much about it, until one day she "collapsed in the kitchen" and was taken to the doctor. The news they gave was devastating.


Athena Orchard is like any other 12 year old. She’s a cheerful and beautiful girl with lots of good friends. She’s part of a big family as she watches over her 6 sisters and 3 brothers with care. However, she recently discovered a bump on her head which she didn’t worry about… until she collapsed in the kitchen. The doctors gave her a devastating diagnosis: bone cancer.


A huge unexpected shock for Athena and her family. Doctors race her to hospital where she endures a 7 hour operation to remove a tumor. After the surgery, she goes through chemo and loses ALL of her hair. She remained optimistic and hopeful but unfortunately the cancer was very aggressive. Shortly after she had her 13th birthday, she died surrounded by her family.


A few days after Athena’s death, her dad was tidying up her room. As he moved the mirror from the wall, he noticed something on the back. It’s filled with ink and the words are a message from his daughter. “I couldn’t believe it. It was almost 3,000 words long. It totally blew me away. I started reading the words, but I had to stop after awhile, it was simply to much – it broke my heart” said her dad.
'



 If someone loves you then they wouldn’t let you slip away no matter how hard the situation is. Remember that life is full of ups and downs, without the downs the ups don’t mean anything.

 I’m waiting to fall in love with someone I can open my heart to.

 Love is not about who you can see spending your future with it’s about who you can’t see spending your life without.

 There is no reason to cry, because I’ll know you’ll be by my side. - Athena says

Never-Before-Seen Photos Emerge From Inside White House During 9/11

By
Thanks to the Freedom of Information Act, never-before-seen photos from inside the White House during the 9/11 attacks have been released. The photos, reportedly captured by a staff photographer, document the reactions of then President, George Bush and Vice-President Dick Cheney as they watch the horrific incident unfold on live television on September 11, 2001. The majority of the photos were taken in the secure basement of the White House, where Secret Service agents frog-marched top government officials following reports that more attacks were a possibility. In the photos, President Bush looks tense as he converses with top officials in the President’s Emergency Operations Center (PEOC), a highly-secure bunker situated below the East Wing, which can withstand nuclear hits and ‘other devastating attacks’. Other senior government officials also feature in the photographs, including National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, CIA Director George Tenet, Dick Cheney’s law...

How India Changed My Life: It Is All About Experiences We Have

By
How India changed my life “In 2004, when I was at one of the lowest points of my life, I decided to go to India. I had never visited India; I’d never even been on a long-term trip. I was emotionally fragile, and at 45, I was at an age when more rational people would be thinking mostly about settling down and playing it safe. But I knew I had to go. I was trying to recover from a deeply entrenched depression brought on by a series of devastating losses, including both my parents, and the only thing that had helped was yoga. Three classes a week eventually turned into teacher training, which lead to a desire – a compulsion almost – to visit the country where yoga was born. It felt like my life depended on it. Though irrational and counter-intuitive, it’s still the best thing I have ever done. But it required some planning. I sold about one-third of my belongings, moved out of my apartment and into a small sublet, temporarily gave my cat to a friend and saved as much money as ...
