Brookie's mom took her own life yesterday. My heart is broken for her little girl. How much sadness can one person endure? When I think of the hits this girl took in her life, it seems so unjust. Pain, abuse, addiction, rejection, guilt, loneliness...all one after another, with no real reprieve.
Today I will take her little girl shopping to buy a dress for the funeral. The last thing Darcy bought her were a sweet pair of white dress shoes, so whatever I buy will match them.
I rarely cry...but I will cry for her. It's the least I can fucking do. She deserves that.
...Darcy you know I loved you. Your little girl will grow up knowing about you. I will be honest with her about it all. I will be her mama for you. But I won't let her call me mommy, that was always reserved just for you... Please be at rest, sweet girl. Good bye.

This made me so sad...
I hate to read about this sort of thing, I can't imagine doing that to a child, but I know depression is a terrible thing to live with, I worry about a friend alot who has it. And owns guns...
Glad you're in Brookie's life Jojo.
