Cheryl...(tears tears tears) My sister took her life 12-31-10 and I still haven't healed. I never will either. I am so sorry for your loss. I swear my pain is far worse than her pain when she was alive. When she died I adopted her dog, and Monday I just put him to rest. I am in so much pain today. He was the last tangible thing I had connected to my sister. I am sorry you feel this way, I really understand...congrats on your placement :)-luloo

So sad when a person commits suicide not realizing the atmosphere of sadness, bewilderment and despair they have created after they're gone. So, So sorry for you loss Luloo! Thank you so much; you are very kind~Hugs~Che
