Tragic Death Of Local Girl

Phoebe Smathers is a local girl from Colorado Springs CO who died while in a car accident. Beforehand Phoebe suffered from a rare disease that hardly ever allowed her to breath or walk. She would often sleep and not wake up at all on the weekends. She would hide it from her friends and sometimes her relatives. She was always afraid of judgement and never told anyone other than her parents and the doctor that she would see every other day. The car crash only stunted her growth for a while. She pretended to be in seventh grade but she was really a 17 year old girl. Every time she saw a friend she almost burst out crying. Now, five years after the crash she died of her rare disease. Only one in every five thousand people would be born with this disease. There was only one thing she wanted her friends to k ow which she stated in her hospital bed before she died and that was “Guys I’m sorry I never told you about my fake disease, that’s because it’s a prank!” As you can tell, this tragic story ended it a prank and all night be well…
