It's not really someone I know. but I know the mother.
Our Church is really small, and so, everybody pretty much know's eachother good.
anyways, theye's a middle aged lady who always brings her grandchildren. but their mother never comes. I'm not sure of the circumstances. but I think she was saved before. but she fell away.
so tuesday night She was talking to the mother(the lady who goes to our Church) and said that she knew she was wayward, and that she needed to get back to God. that she She wanted too...
that night, she overdosed on cocaine(sp?)and had a heart attack.
She's on life support right now. but it looks like the mother has to pull the plug. it's unlikely that she'll ever wake.
how could anybody who knows what will happen if you kill yourself, do that?
it's just sad.
Has anything like that ever happened to someone you know?
EDIT~she died. I went to the funeral monday

My uncle's not a Christian. He used to come to church once and a while but my cousin isn't the best child to bring up and I think the stress got to him so he doesn't come anymore. Anyway, he's tried 3 times to kill himself but they've caught him and sent him to the hospital each time. He has a major case of depression and even though we all show him constantly that we all love him, he keeps getting worse. Currently he's in the "hospital" for mentally ill people to recover from his depression but it's not helping. I agree, it is sad, I wish there was some way to help people like that from trying to kill themselves.

I don't know if I want to say this but this happens to be an issue I face now. It's really deep and it really scars my life a lot. It's hard to express it here. It's not unfortunate that I'm born in this life because God gave this family for a reason. However I'll share it with you guys.
My dad's side of the family are the violent type of people yet they are Christians who go to church. Especially my dad, since I was little, they have arguements every now and then, even it still happens with us as a family. He threatened us by hitting himself, grabs a knife attempting to slit their wrists or say it verbally that he doesn't want life anymore. Most of them do the same things as he does. He got this personality from my grandfather, that was what I was told by my mum. This side of my family were brought up this way. One of my Aunty who is the eldest was like that too. She became life threatening to my grandma so she was sent to a mental hospital in Malaysia. I think the settle things with violence to get their point straight.
How I still can live through life in this family was Jesus helping me constantly. I love my family, even though they are not perfect in ways. I would pray sometimes about it and try to forget it.

My church is big but eeryone knows everyone. My friends dad went surfing by himself and he died (don't know how) My friend didn't come to school for such a long time. They found him a week after he died in Hawaii. My teachr taught a kid with cancer. He died one day. Our whole school/church burst to tears. Half the kids didn't even know. I missed lunch because of that my mom had to get me too much tears. The priest said "Pray to God that you will not cry from it. But love them with your heart."

I Lost my Step-Grandmother Just as She And I Were Becoming Close I Remember the Last Conversation We had was About The Book Of Job and How We all Go through trials. At Her Funeral One of the Members Of Our small group said that She Had Noticed that when She asked Me If I was Going to Sit by My Grandma and I answered I Was Going to Sit by Both of my Grandmothers Her Face Just lit Up With Happiness. To this day I Wonder How life Would have been If she hadn't passed away.
