At just 6 weeks old, Amy Eades was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis. Doctors told her heartbroken mother, Lyn, to enjoy the time they would share together, for it would be short.
Amy succumbed to her illness at age 21. On May 1, 2016, she told her mom "I'm going to sleep now" — and she didn't wake up.
Although Lyn knew that the time was near, losing her daughter was still a shock. The young woman, however, seemed to know that it was her time to die. Unbeknownst to her mother, she planned out her entire funeral on an iPad. And just days before her death, she wrote on social media about how she felt like life was slipping away from her.
She detailed what kind of casket she wanted, what she wanted the funeral guests to wear, and which song should be played at her funeral.
The discovery came when Lyn was going through the iPad. She then made sure that her daughter's final wishes were fulfilled.

Amy Eades passed away after at age 21 after a life-long battle with cystic fibrosis, which she was diagnosed with at just 6 weeks old.
Nearing her death, she planned out her entire funeral on an iPad.
Her mother then found those plans after her daughter's passing and knew that she had to fulfill her final wishes.
One of her wishes was that her guests should release leopard-print balloons in her honor.
Phil Collins's hit 'I'm On My Way" played during the funeral.
In those plans, she also asked to be buried in a leopard-print casket.
The words, "Breathing a little more… since 1994" were inscribed on the side of the coffin.
The funeral guests were instructed to wear something leopard-printed as well.
Amy reportedly told her mom, "I'm going to sleep now" — but never woke up.
"I would like her to be remembered as the happy-go-lucky person that she was, who tried her best in everything she did," Lyn told The Mirror.
