She is pretty like an angel. Petite (110lb/5'5"), sexy, with a
killer smile. I saw pictures of her. About ten of them. In night
gown and bikini. In short and skirt. Too short to be a model,
but cute enough to make the devil stop and look.

She is also into that triathlon thing. Running, jumping, swimming,
if I am not mistaken. Great athlete. She loves it. Before, she
was mostly into volleyball. Not really challenging for her. Now,
she is in her element.

And, smart too. Honor student at Columbia University. Business?
Economics?  By any mean, a Wall Street stalwart in a few years...

She is a polyglot. She spent last summer in Moscow. She was in
Spain in January and February... Two months perfecting her Spanish.

She loves movies. Three days ago, she finally saw the most
entertaining movie of the year, Life is Beautiful and she told her
grandma and mom about it. She was so enthusiastic. She wants
to go back, watching it without reading the subtitles.

She is the only child of two loving parents. Him, an engineer at
Motorola. Tall, big, successful, proud of a daughter. Her, a nurse
for the continuum. Petite, attractive, distinguished, proud of her
daughter.

She is the ideal daughter for everyone. For you too. She is the
woman I would like my daughter to be patterned after. She will not
watch that movie a second time. Twenty- four hours after I met her in my
unit, she died last night , victim of a ruptured cerebral aneurysm that no
one knew she had till two days ago...
