Goodbye Michi
Although I didn't know her well, everyone who I do know who commits suicide affects me deeply. DH & I were sorry to hear of our friend Michi taking her life this past Friday. The really sad thing about it was that she was admitted to a local hospital under suicide watch and she fooled the video camera and managed to hang herself in the 15 minute interval she had between someone checking in on her. Michi was brilliant, yet haunted by a tortured past.
I keep thinking of what I would have done to help her, but I wonder why I do that. She won't be coming back. And I feel so sad, because of all the wonderful things she'll miss in life and all the opportunities she had. As her post doc mentor said, all the good things in her life couldn't make up for the bad.
We will miss you Michi and your beautiful heart. Whereever you are, we hope you are in peace.
xo, Claire
