An
inspirational message from a woman suffering from cancer has gone
viral after being shared on Facebook in the hours following her death. Seema Jaya
Sharma, who lived in Ilford, Redbridge in Essex, passed away on Friday after a
six-year battle with the disease.
The
37-year-old had a family member posthumously post the message from her account,
and it's been widely shared since.
The poster
prefaced the model and singer's final message with: "My mum
passed away today at 14:10.
"She
wrote this as her final status….she wanted her last words to be 'I got
21seconds to go!!! hehe," a reference to the single 21 Seconds by So Solid
Crew.
Seema's
message read: "My son will keep you updated of when the funeral is
etc and please come in bright colours coz you're not coming to mourn my death
but to celebrate my life!!
"Please
keep me alive through you good times and every time you laugh or smile and have
fun, I'm right there having fun with u!!! YAY!!!
"Don't
cry for me Argentina…. the truth is that I didn't even know where u are on the
map!! Geography was never my strong point!!
"Anyway
this is me saying 'peace out people'."
According to
the Ilford
Recorder, Seema had been given the all-clear three times, even fronting a
Cancer Research awareness campaign in 2013.
