10 years ago today
Would be end up being one of the hardest days of my life. Imagine the most exuberant and loving person that you can. Now multiply that by 100 and you might come closer to describing Lisa. The first time I met her, she picked me up, threw me over her shoulders and spun me around. Apparently that's how she greeted new people haha. She knew no strangers, had compassion for all. One rainy day, she was found on the sidewalk moving all of the worms to the grass so they wouldn't get stepped on.
10 years ago today her life was cut short because of mental illness. Not her own but her mother's. What we didn't know then was that her mother suffered from schizophrenia and depression. Rather than see her daughter grow up in a world that would only hurt her, she killed her that night. She believed in her head that Lisa was better off dead. Lisa would have graduated college in the next 6 weeks. She left so many behind to mourn. Her passing still breaks my heart.
Love this girl
