I met Mindy at a wig store in Solana Beach. I was fighting breast cancer and there to get my wig trimmed. She asked me to sit in with her while she had her wigs trimmed. Her wigs looked absolutely adorable on her small face.. very hip! She seemed very overwhelmed by the experience and especially her diagnosis. I think I was ahead of her diagnosis by a few months and I believe I was meant to meet her. I left there knowing she seemed calmer after we talked. I kept the convo only about the positive stories I knew. We kept in touch for a little while after, but after awhile. Our lives moved on and we lost touch. I would look her up from time to time to see how she was doing. Somehow, in the brief time that I met her she touched my life. I was just looking her up now, as I always did from time to time, and I read about her passing. If her family is reading this I remember her telling me about her twins and how she worried about them but how she love them so much. They are the reason she kept going for as long as she did. I am so sorry for the loss of Mindy and I will always remember her. May God bless her family her husband and her twins as they go on trying to figure out how to live without her. I pray the twins always remember her in a positive way and live to make her proud. Take care and God bless to all of you who knew herAnd are missing her tremendously.
