I was just wondering if there was any update on Rafaela's condition/situation; if she cares to have that revealed now, of course!? I think it's really great that HH, TA, Complicatedlife, and Sharon from this board were/are so helpful to her. Please forgive me if I left out anyone! One of the keys to recovery is to have a strong support network around a patient who is rehabilitating!

John, I'm sorry to have to relay the news that Rafi died last summer. She did get released and moved into a rehabilitation facility, but complications set in and she had to return to the hospital, where she died. A few of us held a candle-lighting ceremony in her honor back in June.
Besides being a world-class Kinks fan, beloved by both Ray and Dave, Rafaela was a wonderful person, with the light of joy in her eyes. She is greatly missed.

I'm really sorry to hear that Holly. I was thinking after opening this thread that it had been quiet for awhile and maybe there was a reason for that (that I should have picked up on ). My heart goes out to Ray, Dave, her friends, and family!

thank you John it was an especially hard time for those of us who were really close to her. I am still without words to my grief. She was such a caring soul and was a huge loss to our community as a whole. I am un able to get out east this fall but plan to gather with friends again sometime in the new year to pay tribute to our dear friend. God Bless xx
