We have phones that can send a call or a text message to the other side of the world in half of a second. We have the ability to send people to the moon, without harm.

However, we do not have a cure for ALS. Something does not make any sense.

I miss you Haley! You still are my best friend, and I am so sorry that I cant see you again. I am so glad that you were able to graduate with our class, and got Prom Queen. U were a true inspiration to us all, and I thank you for being such a great friend and never giving up. You will forever be missed, and I pray that you are up in Heaven playing your favorite Kiltie candences and dancing away with the angels. We will be together again, you will forever be my best friend! RIP

Like, even though her body was hosed, her spirit remained strong. Her untimely demise left a huge void, making our world that much more miserable. We so have to find a cure for this gruesomely grim disease. So sad, babes!
