Hi,
Uh, my name is Sarah and this is not my story, it's my grandmothers.
This Saturday will mark three years since my Grandmother committed suicide. I was nearing my fifteenth birthday when she died. I'm not going to lie, we weren't close, but there were a lot of reasons for that. She had severe mental illness as well as physical problems that led her to taking her own life.
It's divided my family right down into two. Just a few weeks ago I got word that my grandfather re-married, and it has devastated my dad. He gets really depressed around this time of the year, and I want to try and not have him so...disconnected.
Do any of you have any advice in this area? If so, I would certainly appreciate it!
Thank you.
