Sophie Morgan Instagram – “Life, if lived well, is long enough”
If there were a template, a guidebook, a manual for living right, I believe Kris’s life would be exactly that. If you don’t know her, then read @howtoglitteraturd.
Despite the turds she was dealt, she found the glitter in everything, even magicking it up when you might expect there to be none. She was that powerful.
Kris saved and changed countless lives. It was impossible to be in her orbit and not come away altered. All of us who had the privilege of crossing her path, be that in person or via her fearless, relentless work to change the fate of those impacted by breast cancer, will know what I mean. We were so lucky to have had her here with us.
Thankfully, I met Kris when we were both at the start of our respective Turd journeys and revealing in the news that she has left us, I can’t help, not for the first time, reflecting on the monumental impact she made on mine. She inspired me to be a better advocate, to live a more purposeful and joyful life, valuing friendship, fun, silliness, purpose, passion and music, to name a few, above all else.
I’m at a loss trying to find the words for how inspiring she was as a person and a friend. You are embedded in my soul, Kris, and will be remembered in each moment of gratitude – which is where you taught us all to live.
My thoughts are with all your closest friends and family at this time. The loss is monumental, seismic and devastating; the only consolation is that, at the very least, we know that she LIVED properly and that she lives on in all of us and @coppafeel and that maybe, hopefully, wherever she is now, she is finally turd-free. RIP, you exemplary human being. 💩 | Posted on 07/May/2024 14:39:30
