#663399Becca — 12 Jun 2014

Today, Rebecca Alison Meyer will be buried after fighting a fight no one could win against cancer. She was six years old to the day.

It feels so unnatural for a child to die before his or her parents. I can't imagine a more devastating experience that a parent can face. Missing the child never goes away. A piece of yourself is lost and the future is forever changed.

To celebrate Rebecca, Matt Robin came up with the idea : “let’s get #663399Becca trending for Thursday 12th.” So, that's why my Twitter avatar is purple (#663399).

Let's paint the world purple for Rebecca today.
