I switched my radio station on the way home from work today and caught Dr. Laura's show. A young woman phoned in who, in essence, was concerned that her family didn't seem to have been dealing with her younger brother's suicide. I didn't catch when the suicide occurred.
The family has his ashed on their mantle of the fireplace. She said her family never talks about him and never has and she doesn't like that they keep his ashes. She wanted to know if it would be alright to talk to her family about letting his ashes go. The young woman was very nice. I wish I could remember everything she said to her but I was upset for the young woman. In essence, Dr. Laura asked her if it were her fault that her brother committeed suicide. She said no, he shot himself, I didn't do anything. Dr. Laura then told her that apparently her family was okay and had moved on and that it shouldn't bother her that they don't discuss it. She told her she needed to get over it and move on. Good grief. I'm very tempted to write Dr. Laura. I hated it that the young woman's phone call was left at that.
