Always know, suicide doesn't end pain at all. It multiples it by 1000 and hands it to those you love to endure until they day. I am a suicide widow. My husband of 23 yrs shattered me and my life and left me with with 5 grieving children. I found his body. I'll never be the same person, and my world died that morning too. That's not what you ever want to do to those you love, but often people just don't realize that it gives others far more pain to endure than one is trying to escape.

From Laura McHolm, Chairman of the Board Last night at 6:00pm, Claire Wineland our inspirational founder passed away. She was not in any pain and the medical staff said it was the most peaceful passing they had ever witnessed. She was surrounded by love and with her mother Melissa Yeager and father John Wineland; they saw her into this world for her first breath and were with her for her last. She suffered a massive stroke on August 26th after a successful double lung transplant. The stroke was caused by a blood clot. After a week of intensive care and various life saving procedures, it became clear that it was Claire’s time to go. Yesterday, Claire’s family and a few very close friends came to say their final farewells and offer their support to the family. In Claire fashion, she is an organ donor. Claire’s remarkable family were so happy for the other families that were now getting the calls that the organ they had long been waiting for was now available for transplant. They had been on the receiving end of that call just one short week ago. We know Claire was loved all over the world. Your prayers, support and encouraging words, have been a huge source of strength for her and her family. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your massive amazing out pouring of love. We are asking to please give the family privacy at this time. They have so generously shared their lovely Claire’s remarkable journey with us all, but now is the time to give them some peace from the public spotlight. They will emerge eventually, but please give them the time to come to terms with their family member's passing. In lieu of flowers, the family is asking for donations to be made to Claire’s foundation. Claire’s Place Foundation is committed to upholding Claire’s legacy by assisting Cystic Fibrosis families in need. In the words of our precious founder Claire Wineland: “Death is Inevitable. Living a life we can be proud of is something we can control.” You sure made the whole world proud of you Claire! She was one red hot spark of inspiration and joy, wasn’t she? Rest In Peace Sweet Warrior Claire, we will continue where you left off. Hug your loved ones close, Laura

Mr. Green This is such a beautiful emotional video and you had to ruin it with your horrendous comment.. Everyone is different.

Learn how to love and accept people for their differences and their beliefs. Don't bash others and bring them down with you. Don't be that person that spreads nasty negativity, trying to convince people into what you believe. The thing is you're so rude, and it makes you look bad. Understand? That's just the truth. Don't be a bully. But on the bright note, God bless you ✨Wish You the best in Life, dude. 👍🏼

the thing is, we are all dying, the difference is acceptance.

[@rockinonthemove]

Well you come to accept it eventually. No use in going crazy over it because it’s gonna happen whether you like it or not. Just live your life like it’s your last day and enjoy what you can. It’s almost like hearing an amusement park is closing in an hour, are you gonna cry about it or get on as many rides as possible?

[@xoooxthanks6957]

rockinonthemove that's the lesson we should learn and apply. In everyday life though, we tend to forget that we will die or think that we still have plenty of time, that accidents and diseases only happen to other people. That's why I said, acceptance was the difference.

You don't need to hate yourself. It's way better investing your energy in hope, because at the end all that counts is how we filled our lifetime. And hope is so powerful! At some point, you can't fall deeper. And you don't want to get there, so do something! Visit a therapist, set yourself little aims you want to reach and even if you take loads of time to get there, you are working on it and you are doing well. I wish you the very best and even though I don't think that I was able to express what I wanted to say because my english just isn't that good, I hope you're gonna be able to get up and rise into this world full of wonders. Have a nice day, there's always someone to lean on if you're not okay, but it's important to at least try. You are amazing!
