My sister committed suicide today. I'm the one who.found her and
called 911. She has been depressed since her husband died 3 years ago today. I now have only my son and granddaughter as my family.
I've never had to deal directly with a death before. Right now I'm angry that she couldn't move forward with living.
I had thought we'd travel together and enjoy our senior years. She was 70 and I'm 68.
