I lost my sister in law to suicide back in 99. It was the hardest thing to wrap my mind around, which I still don't get it. The harder part was telling my kids and trying to explain the unexplainable to them.

My nephew (same family) was murdered last year. That was also a very difficult thing to tell my kids. He was a young 22 at the time and was shot in cold blood. Yes there is a stigma with that too as to questions such as who he hung out with. He did not know the punk who shot him.

So while both deaths were very difficult to deal with, when it came to my nephew we had someone to be angry at. Hard to explain as I was mad at my SIL but in a different way...Sue
