Whats really still bothering me is if Diem ever accepted her fate and became at peace with it. She was such a fighter to the point where its upsetting, and it sounded like she still had the fighting mindset just 2 days ago. After going through so much pain and suffering most people just say enough is enough and become at peace with whats inevitable, its heartbreaking that Diem seemed like she would take more suffering if she could survive. I really hope she was at peace with it before she passed, I wouldnt want her to be as upset as we all are right now before she passed. Seeing the tribute vids its sad thinking she was in so much pain these past few months yet she was so happy in the vids
I feel you, expressed what I was thinking too. I need to feel like she did have peace at the end.
Here are some posts from other Real World/Road Rules/Fresh Meat "family" members:

Thank you V1man.
Lets try to all get back to focusing on the good. Yes there are ****** out there but it is a grain of salt compared to all the beautiful tweets and posts I have been reading. D sure left a mark on this world and will never be forgotten.
Man it still doesn't feel real that Diem's forever gone. It feels weird but I have almost cried over it
I cry over everything... But it does feel weird... I love seeing everyone write and post pictures of Diem but it hurts at the same time. I didn't even know her in real life. My heart breaks for CT as well as her friends and family.
I think one of many reasons it feels weird is she was so accessible to us fans. She was very active on Twitter before the last month of her life, always tweeting, favoriting, responding to fans and other MTV cast members and even not long before her death she sent out that tweet that was a request for help and advice. I have to admit, after she did that, I bought into the idea that someone was going to give her some help and she would live at least a few months longer with that help. For some reason it took forever for the real reality of what Diem's situation was to really set in with me. I think I was in some denial definitely. I was thinking to myself, if she only had a few more days or a week left and she was really on her last days then she wouldn't feel like tweeting but someone else could have tweeted it for her or she might have tweeted it herself because it doesn't take very long and very much strength to send out one tweet. I don't know. I think your mind just goes into it's own rationalizations not to accept the reality because you don't want to.
I think her social media presence just made us all feel like we knew her even when we didn't and now it just feels like there is a big hole. I still have the compulsion to go to her Twitter page like she is going to send out an update.
She also just seemed so down to earth and genuine. I have had questions in my mind of what, if anything, could have either prevented this or prolonged her life for the long term, but I don't think there is much use for those questions now. She's gone and nothing can undo that unfortunately. I think after a death, whether you knew the person closely or did not, there always seem to be more questions than answers. I hope Chris is going to be okay.
I agree about focusing on the good. What would be really nice is if in time we heard more stories about patients and their families who were helped through MedGift. We have already heard some of those stories but even more would be great. Diem really did make an enormous impact and I know she is smiling down on us all from heaven.
