Sunday Roundup #64!!
This post is dedicated to my sister.
One year ago today my sister took her own life.
She lost the battle with her mind and thought the best thing to do was to end her own life. May she have found the peace she was never able to find in this life.
Suicide is real, it's a problem, and we need to start talking about it. Start with your kids. Give them hope. Tell them stories of how this affects a family. How mental illness is a disease. How much and many people love them. How special they are no matter what. How it is real, how they can get help if they need it. HELP THEM.
There is not a day that she is not in my mind and heart. I miss her terribly. My daughters miss her. We needed her. I hope she knew how much we loved her. I still can not think of her without crying.
I love you sister. I love you.
Please if you know someone who is thinking of Suicide, please get them help.
My thoughts are with you today Mary *hugs*
