"I feel like I'm still living in a dream right now and it's not even a dream, it's like a nightmare," said Lopez's sister, Janette Lopez. "All I want to do is wake up from this nightmare so I can continue my life."
She says she last communicated with her sister through text message before Lopez went to the CVS.
