Somewhere, my sister is applauding very loudly.

She was bi and loved fiercely, and was loved just as fiercely, by people of both genders. She was also an outspoken advocate for gay rights.

If she had been forced to give up her bisexuality, she would have given up an essential part of who she was. As heartbroken as I will always be at her loss, I am so very happy that she lived her life so fully.
