Listen to your body when it tells you it's not well.

On November 2nd 2023 a healthy eating, body mindful young soul tragically died after not listening to her body which alot of us do. My sister Makea was 23 and her life should of just started to begin. Leaving behind 2 young babies she died from what started off as the common flu. My sister was such a health fanatic. She exercised, ate so healthy, hardly drank alcohol however her body didn't care. She came down with flu like symptoms in October and while keeping hydrated and doing the usual things we do for flu like symptoms didn't recover. As time went on her symptoms suddenly got worse where she tragically lost her life to sepsis. My advice to everyone is look after yourselves. If your ill seek treatment. Listen to your body because it knows if it needs help. Unfortunately we're now having to relive her trauma over and over and as her oldest sister hurts very much seeing our Mum grieve in pain. One minute my sister was alive taking a sip of water and the next was gone. So please whanau take our tragedy as a lesson to all. Merry Christmas whanau and thankyou for reading our story.
