Okay so here is my Story, when I was 12 I came home, and I went into my parents room, and I found my Father's sleeping pills on the floor, and the bottle was on the floor, he told me that he only took a few, and was going to sleep. I told him I would be back in a few hours to wake him up, and he grabbed my arm and said "I Love you my baby girl, and I am so sorry" I told him "yeah and it is okay" Mom called me a few hours later and told me to wake him, I went in his room, and I knew something was wrong, and I went over to him, and he would not wake, I ran outta the room, called my Mom and told him dad was dead, and she told me to call 911 I did and they showed. I still see the whole thing and it has deeply effectecd me! I have been thinking about him, and thinking about suicide very much.

" Hi Sweetheart,

My father killed himself with pills also when I was about the same age as you. I did not find him though. His death affected every fiber of my being. I understand how you feel. I felt the same way many times for several years. Now I am many years older then my father was when he left this world. I still cry at times. I still miss him. I hate my soon to come grandchildren won't ever know him. One thing I did learn is my leaving this world would do nothing more then give this pain to the ones that love me that I would leave behind. Time has made things easier and I am so happy that I have not missed hugging and loving my sweet girls. My baby is just one year younger then you.

Please take one day at a time and email me as much as you need. I will answer everytime I am on line. "
