I have had an email to say that Fern has lost her fight against Cystic Fibrosis.
She spent time on here as well as BHS and so Im just letting everyone know.
She was renowned for her mispelt texts and other cute child activities.She had just got a new Shetland foal that she was so excited about.
If anyone else knows more then we would all be grateful to hear.
We are trying to get links for acystic fibrosis charity so people can give if they wish

She WAS lovely and was coming to Trallwm in the summer but wasnt well enough so we named two Jersey calves after her.Fern and Crunchie
Makes you realise how fragile life is.
It was her choice not to tell anyone about her illness and she used to get lots of stick about never being at school and her spelling.I think Fern used to quite enjoy the lectures because it would have been great if she really was just skiving.Her mum educated her at home you see.

I wanted to say that a lesson hopefully has been learned, we don't know who we're communicating with on the internet, we should all be very mindful of the things we say to people lest they hurt the innocent.

Like the others, I am so shocked to hear this news. I never knew that she was ill, she never let it show. My abiding memory of Fern's posts are just how happy and enthusiastic she was about all things horsey. What a brave person. Our DG is poorer place without people like Fern.
Can I refer people to my previous thread 'think before you post'. None of us know the people behind the PC's and we have no idea about what struggles they may be facing.
God bless Fern and her family.

thank you leslie for letting us all know.
If you have any way of passing our sympathies back to her family please could you.
The death of any person is sad but when a child goes before a parent it goes against the natural order of things and seems somehow even sadder for that.
Fern left her mark in this world and will not be forgotton.

You'll be greatly missed by many people Fern, you brave person, you.
I don't know if you had any friends waiting at Rainbow Bridge or not, but either way,I bet you gathered a huge herd of animals that never knew love and walked over that bridge with a halo of light shining down upon you.
Take care sweet soul, and ride with the wind.

I remember so well the stick she used to take for her writing, and how well she stuck up for herself without getting angry. This explains the strength she had, if she was fighting all her way through life.
If you can, please pass on to her family our thoughts and wishes. Goodbye Fern, we will remember you fondly.

I've got tears in my eyes reading all this. It is just so terribly sad - I thank God to have a healthy daughter and will give her an extra special hug this evening. My heart goes out to Fern's parents who must be going through hell. She was a lovely girl - I remember her posts well and she came across as just so likeable. I hope she has now found peace and is finally without pain. God Bless.
I agree with the others who have said about thinking before posting. I'm a journalist/editor and often when somebody attacks another poster for spelling or grammer I give a hollow laugh because the attacker's command of the English language is often not much better - I could certainly take my big red editing pen to their posts!

I shall take great care with my spelling then LOL.
Fern was a little minx and I think she got attention out of her textspeak.
But she never once bit back or explained why she wasnt at school and it was because she just wanted to be treated as normal.
I look at her message board now and wish I had made time to get her message board going but then she had great fun on nearly every message board known to mankind !
I remember there was an issue involving her dogs barking and she started a campaign to stop them being rehomed,I wish I had her tenacity for quietly letting the world know.
I bet she is in heaven now bellowing that we have forgotten something about her !
