Died too young

A little while ago I was informed that a girl I chatted with for a few months has commited suicide! She was only 15 yrs old! I was trying to be a mother and a friend to her. It was so hard because of the miles between us. I feel very bad because I wasn't on all weekend and might have been able to help her if I had. I know I'm not to blame for all the problems and that she might have done it anyway! I just wish I would have been there to make it a little less painful weekend. She said I could make her laugh all the time and that is what I loved to do! She didn't have much happyness at home. Her parents were not there for her at all. She lived with abusive drunk father!  And her mother wanted nothing to do with her! She talked about an older brother that she loved but didn't see much. Why do people keep children they don't want or have no right raising?    I love all my children and always tried to do my best to let them know I care! And now I'm sorry I wasnt able to be there for Sarah. May she find happyness in heaven!

So young and such a waste. Suicide was not the right answer for her. But, when a person has totally given up on themselves, virtually no one can talk them out of it. I really hate to hear things like that. I remember one young man on DS that did the same. He had left a note for his mother to tell his DS friends. It was soooo hard for his mother to grant that wish. You could feel her pain in every word she typed. She was overwhelmed by the responses that she received from his friends. Just a sad thing.

That is horrible! I\'m so sorry. You did all you could do. I know that helpless feeling all too well. I don\'t want you to fall into the shoulda, woulda, coulda, cycle though. Young people especially ones, with depression or anxiety are susceptible to rash thinking. Abuse causes both. There are so many kids suffering with irresponsible, or addicted parents. I\'m glad you were there for her. So sorry.
