Please hang on, Gwen. I will care about you always; I do not want to go to your funeral. Please find some reason to take care of yourself today. A tree, a breeze, a puppy, a poem, a song. Hang on, damn it! You are young, and there is hope. I just know it. And I love you. It'd be harder to love a corpse. Please call or write anytime. (and can you e-mail me your number and address?) Don't fucking give up! You've got more grit in you... I need you to be alive. XO, Laura

Dear Gwen, Oh, how I wish you wouldn't punish yourself by withholding your insulin. Please don't do that. You have done NOTHING to punish yourself for! And I also do not want to go to your funeral, funerals SUCK, a veritable WHIRLPOOL OF SUCK. You can always email me or call me, call me collect, darn it, I know I'm a relative stranger, but I still care about YOU. And to that ANON lurker person, please move back into your cave of ridiculous unfounded self-righteousness and stop breathing my air. Thank you.

Gwen, I've been reading your diary for awhile now, and I read as you have ups and downs, but remember that each time you have an up, if you fall back down, you're closer to the top...just keep getting up and you'll be okay one day. Ignore the Anon poster, they've probably just read one day of your diary and know nothing of you and your life and your goodness and your hopes and everything else about you. Plus I'm guessing they're, for lack of better word, extremely pathetic. The key to life for EVERYONE, no matter what you are struggling against, is no matter how hopeless something seems: don't give up. Your story isn't over, you still have pages to write. :) You gotta keep livin'!

Gwen, you don't know me but I had a similar experience with someone leaving a note on my site. I have serious depression/anxiety/ocds and they wrote that I didn't know what it was like to suffer but you know what I do and they don't know my whole life story only one entry that they just happened to run across. Please don't stop trying to get better.

I wish I could say something that would make you feel better. Something that would make you feel loved, or that you have support, or anything useful at all. I know that all the love and caring that people give you won't keep you from destroying yourself, though. I think mostly, at the moment, I wish I could meet with you somewhere, so we could go get coffee or something. It's nice to sit in a cafe and discuss life. Even if you know you are dying.

I don't usually comment, but I'd like you to know that I think you're an amazing person, and I'm so happy you've chosen to share your story. It's a testament to how strong you are. Thank you.

Gwen, Yes, this is Jenny Poo. I am crying right now, because I can remember the first time I met you. I cannot, will not, think about what it would be like to never be able to hug you again. I know this is not you, Gweny poo, but if you give up there won't be a you. I don't know how else to contact you, other than through this. I can see, smell, taste, hear, and feel your pain. Let it go, Gwen. The world is waiting for you.

I've been following your entries on and off for a long time now. You write such poetic prose. But the pain behind your every word leaves me breathless. Dont give up. The battle is over only when you quit. Because of all the strength that you hold within you, you can outsmart this disease. Its a battle of wits in the end. And im fighting right alongside you.
