Around 10 years ago I moved to Stockholm and became part of Bonian and Kristinas family, with their two daughters Nilo and Gloria. Since then we have been close, sharing our lives. Almost two years ago Nilo fell ill and has fought the cancer growing in her body. When I returned to Sweden this september, the doctor told the family there was no return, the cancer would take our Nilo. Her response was then "vi skall fira den dödliga sorgen" ("we shall celebrate the deadly grief"). Despite her pain she was continously joking, teasing, laughing and always caring for others and sharing her love and generosity, never complaining! She passed away the morning of october 12th, only 19 years old. Photo's are from the pajamas party we had at the hospital last weekend. Thank you Nilo!
