The letter reads: \u201cMothers, Fathers, Sisters, and Brothers need to show the battle lines are drawn, and stand together to fight for the future of victims.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She continued:&#8221;Is protesting the answer? I don&#8217;t know. But we&#8217;ve got to start somewhere.\u201d The note was posted online by Giuffre\u2019s sister-in-law, Amanda Roberts, who is married to Giuffre\u2019s brother, Sky.<\/p>\n<p>Virginia Giuffre&#8217;s death was announced by her family on Saturday, 26 April. At the time her family said in a statement that she was a \u201cfierce warrior in the fight against sexual abuse\u201d but that the \u201ctoll of abuse\u2026 became unbearable\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>It added: \u201cShe was the light that lifted so many survivors.

She will be missed beyond measure.\u201d Ms Giuffre had three children, who her family described as the \u201clight of her life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Three weeks prior to her death, Ms Giuffre shared a post on her <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/instagram\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a> account, in which she claimed doctors had told her she only had a few days left to live following a crash with a school bus.<\/p>\n<p>Her publicist said last month Ms Giuffre had been treated in an Australian hospital after a traffic collision. But she did not answer questions about the date, location, nature or other specifics of the incident, nor about the accuracy of the <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/instagram\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a> post.<\/p>\n<p>Local police later disputed the severity of the crash. On March 30, Ms Giuffre posted on <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/instagram\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a>: &#8220;This year has been the worst start to a new year, but I won\u2019t bore anyone with the details but I think it important to note that when a school bus driver comes at you driving 110km as we were slowing for a turn that no matter what your car is made of it might as well be a tin can.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ve gone into kidney renal failure, they\u2019ve given me four days to live, transferring me to a specialist hospital in urology. I\u2019m ready to go, just not until I see my babies one last time, but you know what they say about wishes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;S**T in one hand and wish in the other and I guarantee it\u2019s still going to be s**t at the end of the day. Thank you all for being the wonderful people of the world and for being a great part of my life.
