Dear Friends,
I have been informed by Jennie's (Jennifer51) family that Jennie passed away peacefully yesterday, around 6pm, with her family at her bedside. Her breathing was poor for a while, and she declined rapidly over the past week or so. There is a message on Jennie's page, posted by her a few days ago, which says it all.
I am very sad about Jennie's passing, she was such a fighter and so enthusiastic about research. I had a pleasure of meeting her and her family here in the UK, at one of MNDA conferences, a few months ago. Her speech was gone, but she communicated via her laptop with a great sense of humour. She also helped me a lot with the UK disability benefits maze, when my partner was diagnosed last year.

Oh, now I am sad again 
Danijela, thank you very much for letting us know about Jennifer. She was one of the first bulbar onset PALS that I met on this forum, one of my first friends here and I learned a lot from her when I knew nothing. She was the one who suggested the speech system that I use every day now and her passing makes me very sad. I was just thinking about her yesterday because we hadn't heard from her in a while. At least she isn't in pain anymore
My condolences to her family and friends, I can't write anymore, too sad
Barry

I am very very saddened by this news! Jennifer was so helpful and so generous with her knowledge. She was a wonderful woman! Like Barry, I was just thinking how we hadn't heard from her in a little while. Please share my condolences with her family, Dani and thank you for letting us know.
I am glad she isn't suffering anymore but Jennifer will be seriously missed.
