Urgent News and a Farewell

[Gentian]

Hello everyone, I'm doing my best write this post with the emotions I'm facing right now. But, it's important I tell everyone.

Most of you know that Spitfire was diagnosised with a form of wing cancer last week. It went undetected for a long time and had already reached her spine. We didn't know how things would work out but we expected there to be treatments and that she'd get better. That isn't the case.

Spitfire is dying, her condition has taken a decline suddenly due to the cancer affecting her spine, she's getting weaker by the day and the doctors have said that she has a few days left. We have decided, along with advice from Gentian to create this post as a chance to say the news in a way that people could process it and give Spitfire a chance to say some things on the site one last time.

Spitfire: I wanted to say thank you to everyone in the community, even if EP and I didn't talk to you much or your partner, we valued everyone who was a piece of this community. Everyone here helped build our relationship, and although ours may be coming to an unexpected end, it's been a hell of a ride. I'm glad I was able to met all of you and talk to so many of you and your partners. Im depressed that I'm dying so young....all the things I wanted to do and now won't, the years I wanted to spend with EP that I can no longer cherish. But I'm glad I at least know it's coming sooner than expected and that I can say good bye. Thank you everyone, for everything, it's made me extremely happy over the past two years. All though my heart belongs to EP, I loved all of you as my friends.

I'm sorry it's come to this. Spitfire, you're a wonderful mare, and the best captain the Wonderbolts could have asked for. You also have a husband who loves you, and you will see each other again some day.

EP, do your best to stay strong for her, she needs you now more than ever.
