Its Been 9 years, Remember Suicide is not the answer.

2ndAug 29, 2018 by heatherlum
imageSo as some of you may know that I my little sister committed suicide. Its been nine long years. On 8/29/2009 my little sister Phylllie took her life. Her demons were just that strong. Phyllie was my little light. She was beautiful and amazing. She never judged me. Ohh I wish she was here today with me. She would get it (Yes Ella she would love you, simply because you make me happy). She left behind 3 kids. There growing up and I'm not there for them. I'm not allowed to be.

I remember the call I got. My sister Becky asking if I was sitting down. I asked her to just tell me. At that point I thought the worst thing that could ever happen is that one of the cats got hit. Now I know better. She told me and I threw the phone. "Phyllis is dead". Thaught somehow if I threw the phone it wouldn't be true. That it was some sick joke or I was dreaming. Not at all. I made it to her house and the ugly facts came out. Three days later her funeral was held. Her coffin was well a fucking box with what they said was my sister in it. It was cold. I could not bring myself to touch her. That was not my sister. My sister was bright eyed. My sister was alive. I remember feeling anger. People were walking by the funeral home and smiling and I wanted to hurt them. How dare they smile when my heart was being ripped from my body.

My sweet little sister, the one that I used to play in the toy box with for hours on end, the one I used to tell my secrets to, the one who had a baby boy two months to the day older then mine. The one who I loved so very much was reduced to a shell in a box. She was truly gone and it hit me. It hits me often. Today especially. Today I'm going to allow myself to be sad. I'm going to allow the tears to fall, I'm going to Hopefully talk to my girl friend. I'm going to cook and bake. Some how I'm going make it threw this day.

The cold hard facts are this. She overdosed on hydrocodone. She took way too many and she knew what she was doing. She was choosing to end her pain. Yes I get that. Her pain was just too much. She chose it.

I am asking each and ever one of you to reach out to me if you ever need a person to talk to. I am here. Suicide is not the answer.

Btw. The picture if of my sister as my wedding. The last time I ever saw her alive. She was 23.

Thanks for sharing. My sister attempted last year. I wish people didn’t feel that they needed to do that. I can’t imagine the struggle they go through.

heartbreaking, the strength and outlook you have is beautiful but no one deserves to suffer through this, on both sides. Never blame yourself
