    They say she’s dying but she is doing more living than most.
  • @carmella1816
    The way she says I have 1 year to live and I’m watching this one year later
  • @ch1429
    I’m suicidal and I just wanted Claire to know that she really helped me, and made me try and find the happiness in life, instead of throwing it away. I cant believe she’s gone, but I know she is somewhere free of pain. I really hope she is happy because she is so amazing <3
  • @anna_banana7019
    It's been exactly 5 years since she passed and I didn't even know it. I just felt this urge to remember her. She truly lived more in her 21 years than most people in a lifetime. We miss her light, She truly reminds me to enjoy life every day. Rest peacefully claire. We miss you 🥺💔

    “So I’m dying.” *casually sips drink*
  • "Death is inevitable. But living a life we are proud of, that's something that we can control" R. I. P Claire
  • @sailyui
    Let's be honest, this girl was more positive than we could ever be throughout our entire lifetime
  • @fffmania7491
    Dying is multifaceted. I have survived a spinal injury that left me paralysed, then I caught sepsis that robbed me of my fingers and legs and now I have cancer. I have no fear of death and I have lived an awesome and adventurous life. But how can I not fear leaving my wife and young children? It is those we leave behind who have to live with dying.

    “Don‘t cry because she is gone. Smile because she was here.” Rest in Peace ❤️
  • @inessa8332
    It's like my brain can't process that she's gone. She's so full of life
  • The moment when Ellie is crying and Claire goes over to comfort her little sister is the purest thing I’ve ever seen😩 I hope Ellie is doing okay.
  • I also have Cystic fibrosis, and I'm a 2 time double lung transplant recipient. I know of Claire and have followed her journey on and off since the beginning. I've waited a long, long time to watch this because our stories are very parallel. It's painful. All the people except for 2, that I've know through Cf and transplant have passed. Claire was always an inspiration. Breath easy and rest in peace.
  • She’s a freaking enigma. What a beautiful wise soul. I’m eighteen and I could never be as poised, eloquent, and positive as she was.
  • @yazminlomeli
    I watch Claire every time I feel im taking my life for granted
  • @giocass9741
    Even if she lived ... Covid wouldn’t be her friend . Sucks how the most beautiful people leave so early . And she was so beautiful and inspiring . Rip to her and I give all my condolences to her family
  • @humoria2038
    Five feet apart brought me here, im fallin love with you claire, rip claire, greet from Indonesia

    "Death is inevitable but, living a life that we are proud of , THAT is something we can actually control!" ~Claire
  • She was so passionate and loved her life. It’s unfair that she left so young.
