Very beautiful, Erica. I'm so sorry for your loss. It is quite the tragedy that such a beautiful girl would not see her worth.

This is a new facebook page created by my daughter's Seattle friends to raise support for the new foundation which is operating under NAMI. Every day someone posts a photo, a related mental health link, and there is now info on a beautifully designed poster advertising the first NAMI fund-raising event. I don't know if I'll feel strong enough to attend, but I do greatly appreciate and admire her friends who are so devoted to her memory and for attempting to prevent death from depression from happening to anyone else. Peace
