I would like to express my thanks and appreciation to all of you. This is a wonderful community and the outpouring of sympathy and support not only here by posts but also by the all of the email I have received has been very comforting.
In the last 48 hours a lot of information has come to light that I was unaware of. I found her goodbye note. It was not written to me or my wife or to her mother; it was written to her friend Cheka, asking Cheka never to kil hersef and to contact other suicidal friends they have and try to prvent them from doing the same. She seems to have been planning this for months. It was due to bullying at school. I asked her frequently about bullying and she always denied that any was going on. She shared differently with my parents over her visit with them during the summer but they thought I knew already and did not tell me.
I am not placing any blame, nor am I looking for any blame. No amount of blame is ever going to bring back my little girl. I am not trying to pursue the reasons. There will never be enough reasons that will bring my little girl back. She wasn't killed by an accident or another person. She made a decision, and I respect her free agancy. It was an adult decision, and she was still just a child; I wish to God she had discussed this with me before she made her decision. She went out on her own terms; she went out her own way; she went out with her own style.

How horrible. I just read up on recent posts and came upon your post. Words cannot express my feelings. My condolences and heartfelt sympathies to you and your family. I'm sorry for your loss.

The husband of my partners sister committed suicide this summer. With him it seemed that due to a recent hearing loss and being a musician it was too much. What makes me so sad is that the darkness of whatever is haunting someone you know is so great that even to close friends and family it seems inconceivable that anyone can help or that one might even be worth of help.
All we can do I guess is to accept the choice taken and learn to let go although for me the hardest part is the powerlessness not being able to help.
Reading about your loss brought back some of the pain but also some lightness, knowing that I/we am not alone. I wish you/us the strength to heal from this.

So sorry about this tragedy.
My daughter is 13 now and we have a rather "conflictual" way to discuss, but I hope that she and every teens out there can find the strength to ask for help when in need.
All my condolence and prayers.
Alex

I'm deeply sorry about your loss, too. So far, we have no kids, so I can't even imagine the situation you and your family are in. Just know that there are people all around you who will support you in any way needed.
