From a very good friend of Teresa (Arasina):
"Got the terrible news I'd been half expecting. Early this morning Teresa (arasina @Free Republic) has passed on to be with the Lord due to complications with what was an acute case of cystic fibrosis. Her lungs simply would not respond. Even with her oxygen machine she could not quite get enough oxygen. All that could be done at that point was sedation. On Saturday I'd called but she immediately said she couldn't speak. Yesterday I regrettably didn't reach out...and this AM Teresa's niece left the message of the bad news. The only solace I have is that I know she is with the Lord. I prayed for mercy and relief, and He fulfilled that request.
Red -- if you could -- please post Teresa's FR obit. She was 63, a native of Indianapolis, a Christian woman of good cheer, loved people, FR, all that was good and right. Most importantly, she loves Jesus and believed in the Gospel with all her heart.
Thank you, brutha,
Jim"
There is beauty both in sunrise and sunset, sing of it, and glorify the Lord. Like the nightingale, pour forth thy notes at all hours. Believe that the night is as useful as the day. The dews of grace fall heavily in the night of sorrow. The stars of promise shine forth gloriously amid the darkness of grief. Continue thy service under all changes. If in the day thy watchword be labour, at night exchange it for watch. Every hour has its duty, do thou continue in thy calling as the Lord's servant until He shall suddenly appear in His glory. My soul, thine evening of old age and death is drawing near, dread it not, for it is part of the day; and the Lord has said, "I will cover him all the day long." Charles H. Spurgeon
Oh dear Lord.
I am so sad and absolutely stunned.
arasina’s last post here was to me.
I loved her and will pray for her sweet, beautiful soul and for all the many who loved and are grieving for her.
Rest in peace and sing with the angels, dear girlfriend.
May God always hold her dear.
RIP. Condolences to her friends and family.
Was she the one who had the hand of the mannequin in her profile picture with the caption “so there”?
Thanks. Prayers up.
Prayers for the family.
Another good one, gone.
Praying for her family and loved ones.
May Theresa K rest in peace and she now sings with the angels.
Prayers.
No ... I’m so sorry to see this. But also happy for Teresa that all her pain is over and she is forever in the arms of Jesus. Prayers for her family and friends.
My condolences to you on your loss of a great friend.
Deepest condolences. Rest in peace, Teresa.
Treatment is better these days.....and I've known some mid-40's people with CF...but never heard of someone living into their 60's..!!
My cousin has a girl with a mild form of CF....
I think it's one DZ..that will get cured. Or, just stable DZ.
Sorry to hear of her passing....I never knew her.
The thing about CF...is it takes “two to tango”...meaning both man and woman must carry the gene. So, you could carry the gene...but not your husband.
So sorry to hear this. G-D be with her family and friends.
Thank you.
A lot of them have been disappearing, sadly.

I didn't realize how sick she was until earlier this summer, but have to say that she handled it as well as anyone could possibly expect, given the circumstances.
~Arasina~ was a tough cookie.
Pinging those who might have not seen this thread earlier.
Thanks, I hadn’t seen it. May her reward be great!
Teresa was a favorite of mine too.

Sweet, beautiful arisina. Like you all, I miss her, too. Her last post here was to me.
I wish our FR mail still had that feature that sorted FR mail by sender, because just the other day, I was searching through my FR mail to find a favorite graphic, and I came across two notes from arisina! BITTERSWEET.
God love and keep her.
God bless you guys, too!
