Sweet Sophia


Sweet Sophia 

It is with deep regret and such sadness that the Dietitians of East Sussex will travel to London tomorrow to say goodbye to you. You with your beautiful, effervescent nature. You with your zest for life and enthusiasm for your family,friends and work. You who encouraged me to get back to playing netball this Autumn and joining your team, your energy being endless at times. You, who earned the respect of our medical colleagues and always gave of your best, an asset to our profession. Sweet Sophia, at 30 it seems that you still had a whole life to live. Losing you last weekend feels unfathomable, you will be missed dearly and may you rest in peace dearest friend xox

    What a lovely tribute. I am so sorry for your loss, it is truly tragic when one leaves us at such a young age. We lost a 21 year old colleague a couple of years ago, it makes you feel very sad and very mortal, but above all, just very sad. Sending you love and best wishes xx

    Thinking of you, dear Penny.
