I know she was 20, 20 FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!. she had a health problem over many years. she and i only met maybe ten times, she was long and lanky with a husky laugh , cant say any more. A girl, just a girl who should still be with us.  SORRY dont repy to this , i just had to say this for her.

I'm genuinely sorry to hear about it. In our area of S Wales, we have had a lot of young people doing the same thing and no-one can understand WHY. Its a terrible thing, whatever age the person, but worse when its young people doing it.  Whatever the reasons why, they are now at peace.

I'll never fully understand why, I have had 2 suicides in my family over recent years, and whilst I can see why they did it I cant get my head round what actually drives people to such measures.................as said though, they are at peace now
